Eat Drink and be Merry!

Stainless Steel Dessert Spoons

I was never born with a silver spoon in my mouth or I guess in my case a pair of silver chopsticks. Each year, there are approximately 3.8 million trees that are used to manufacture of about 57 billion disposable pairs of chopsticks in China, according to statistics from that nation’s national forest bureau. Yikes that's a lot of trees!

On my last trip away, I followed the lead of a friend and bought myself a pair of portable stainless steel chopsticks for all the sushi I love to eat!

Many of my friends enjoy food....they are self defined foodies and I myself enjoy delicious food especially in the company of my friends!


Food plus the love of food was the inspiration for these stainless steel dessert spoons that I created over the holidays. Each spoon is hand stamped with the word 'love' in a different languages.

No matter what the language it is in ....or what the dessert will be, it's all to be enjoyed!

Do the earth a favor an in the new year bring your own chopsticks when you go out for Asian cuisine!

It's a Good Life

As we are closing in on another year I'm reflecting on what kind of year it's been. What are some great learnings this year? What made an impression on me? What will I change from this year forward?

It's a meter of measure once a year...but everyday is a great adventure! It feels...almost complete. There is always one more thing...one more adventure one more project to pursue - one more day.

Sometimes people focus on all the bad, all the horrible things that are happening in the world, the crisis, trauma and pain. Some people will complain about anything and everything.

Don't get me wrong we all get dismayed at times, the world dishes out some terrible things some days.

My memories are about the things that make me laugh and smile. The wonderful people that are in my life. Through it all life is good...
