🌊 Cruise Lovers, I Need Your Input! 🚢

I’m gearing up for a wave of adventures — setting sail with Royal Caribbean this October, Virgin Voyages in November, and Carnival in January! 🌴✨

To make it even more exciting, my mom (a Princess Cruises veteran!) is joining me on Royal Caribbean, and I cannot wait to hear her verdict. 👑⚓️

Now I want to know from YOU:
👉 What’s your favorite cruise line and why?

HOMETOWN HIGHLIGHTS:

On my hunt for the best fried chicken in town, one name kept coming up: Roots. Seasonal Cuisine.
Their Monday special had my attention before I even walked in the door:

✨ Fried Chicken & Beer
• Buttermilk Fried Chicken – $19 (half chicken, pickle-brined, crispy perfection)
• Buttermilk Chive Whipped Potatoes – silky, herby, cloudlike
• Draft Beer – $4 all day

From the moment I stepped inside, I knew I was in for something special. The space is upscale yet inviting, the kind of restaurant where the details in the decor reflect the same care that goes into each dish.

Now, I’ll admit it—I’m picky when it comes to fried chicken. The breading has to be crisp and seasoned just right, and I’ll always choose dark meat for its juiciness. Roots nailed it. The golden crust shattered with each bite, giving way to meat so flavorful and juicy it practically melted. Those chive-kissed whipped potatoes? Creamy, buttery, and worth every forkful.

To sip, I ventured into cocktail territory with the Violet Beauregard (Weber Ranch Agave Vodka, Amaro Nonino, Blueberry-Cardamom Orgeat, Citrus, Egg White). It was as stunning as it was delicious—silky, velvety, and layered with flavor.

And of course, dessert. I couldn’t resist the carrot cake topped with candied pecans (a thoughtful touch for someone like me with a walnut allergy). The buttercream was rich but not overpowering, the cake itself moist and bursting with spice. I savored half of it, boxed the rest, and smiled knowing I’d get to enjoy it again later—because portions here are generous.

Bottom line? This was one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. If you haven’t treated yourself to Roots in Lee’s Summit yet, trust me—put it on your list.
Best Fried Chicken EVER! My server Chase was excellent! Ask for him! 🥰

Today I was asked for my favorite B and B recommendation near Kansas City.

The Amber House Bed and Breakfast is truly one of my favorite escapes—I’ve stayed here many times, and it never fails to exceed my expectations. From the moment you walk through the door, you’re greeted with warmth, charm, and a sense of relaxation that makes you feel instantly at home.

The food is absolutely to die for—every meal is beautifully thought out, prepared, delicious and memorable. It’s the kind of meal you look forward to all day!

The massages are another highlight—fabulous, rejuvenating, and the perfect complement to a weekend of rest and indulgence. Whether you’re there for a quick getaway or a longer stay, they make the experience feel like a true retreat.

Amber House has become a place I return to again and again because it’s simply that special. If you’re looking for comfort, hospitality, and a little slice of luxury in Rocheport, look no further!

I’ll be visiting this restaurant today for my “Hometown Highlights” … stay tuned!

Another fellow creative with stunning work!

Featured Parks: This week, it's Hudson Springs Park in Hudson, Ohio. This highly photogenic park is one of my all-time favorites for early morning photo walks. September and October are my favorite months to visit. Here's a selection of photos from this gem. Take your time and enjoy each scene. It's sure to bring a sense of peace and joy to those who do.

The next couple of weeks have potential for high numbers of monarchs clustering to rest overnight on the shores of Lake Erie, like these ones from years past.

Warm days with winds out of the north are ideal for them to leave Canada, and cooler or rainy conditions here are ideal to keep them grounded once they reach land. To witness roosting monarchs, it's best to arrive an hour or two before dusk or just after sunrise. Wendy Park is my favorite place to go, but Wildwood Park in Cleveland and Mentor Headlands may also host them. It's a magical sight to see if you've never witnessed it before.
