The would be when my husband and I went to Las Vegas for our anniversary. We paid $35 each for a buffet at one of the casino’s restaurant. Was it worth it? No! The food was cold, under cooked and not seasoned. Needless to say we found other places to eat that wasn’t that expensive. We haven’t been back to Vegas since and don’t plan to go back in the coming years.

I remember the old Vegas where you could see a show for less than $1oo. The casino buffets were $10. Now since they redecorated it doesn’t have the same ambience as before. The essence that was once Las Vegas forever changes. Now it what can we charge you for a glass of water. So sad.

I would have to flip a coin. Heads Scotland the land of timeless beauty and profound depth, mist-shrouded highlands, and ancient castles. A country steeped with myth and legend, Nessie lurking in Loch Ness to the windswept moors. Dramatic landscapes like the shores of Skye or the streets of Edinburgh.

Or

Tails Canada. Canada is multifaceted country with mountains, forests, prairies, and coasts. The amazing northern lights over the Yukon skies or the Nova Scotia’s shorelines. It is rich with traditions and diversity. Blends with Indigenous heritage and multicultural spirit into a mosaic welcome for everyone. You can wander through French-streets of Québec City or traverse the Rockies.

The one thing I think that helps the most for my health would be that I don’t stress about what people say. Especially on social media where there is a plethora of ignorance. You will get trolls not matter what you say or do. Some people are just miserable with their life. They try to bring you down to make themselves feel better. Now, I just don’t care what they say about me or my writing. They are jealousy or envious of my accomplishments and my happiness. They never attained anything in their life which is not my fault. You choose the path you want to walk. Of course there will be stones on that trail but you must decide to turn around or go around or over the obstacles in your way.

It has to be devils food cake and ice cream. The deep chocolate flavor combined with the fluffy texture OMG nothing compares to it. Then you add ice cream more sweet and creaminess. It is a feel good bowl of happiness.

I have two activities and they both involve books. The first one is reading. I don’t know what most people do when they are ready for bed. I like to read a chapter or three before I go to sleep. But if the story is really good I will not put it down until I read the end. Then I check the time and it is two in the morning. So much for getting eight hours. Psst. Monster, Shifters or Mafia romance is my kryptonite.

The second activity is going to the library to check out books. You have to read the blurb on the back cover of all the books in the section you are looking for. So instead of thirty minutes you are there for two or maybe three hours.

I would have to say Country. I am not talking about the Blue Grass but more like Reba or Taylor Swift. Which is ironic because hubby hates Country. He was into Tekno which I don’t like. Now he goes for the Irish or Norse music. I like slow, expressive melodies for listening. Irish or Norse music tells a story kind of like some country songs.

Celebrating our 25th anniversary in Scotland. The castles loved Loch Ness, so wanted to see Nessa. Coastal cliffs and mountains. Glasgow was a old and new with historic architecture alongside modern life. The climate was cool often cloudy but that was expected.

That’s an easy one. When my hubby says we are going on a date. He takes me to one of our favorite restaurants usually sushi or Italian. Then he takes me to Barnes and Noble and he pays for three of my books. Such a loving and thoughtful man.
