The day after Sunday

Yesterday may have been the laziest Sunday of my entire life, which included reading an entire Carl Haissen book I'd gotten from the library. A new Hiassen? A lazy day? It's like sushi and wasabi for me.

But finally, enough slugdom. Peeling away the cat, I took a walkabout  (ok, I walked around for awhile and then I couldn't turn down a ride to town), checking out bits and pieces of Culebra

I know u had a long day, i know u miss me as much i do, i just want u to know that no matter what im able to be with u because you have my heart and i have yours, there is no doubt about it. I want
the day when i wake up and u are there, you are what i wanna see every morning when i wake up, i miss those days, cant wait to be with u and enjoy our vacation and enjoy the rest of our lives together.

I MISS YOU SO MUCH. I want to kiss you so much, go out with you, visiting new places, being with our family, i cant wait to meet my grandfathers and the rest of our family... Mom, Christian, Angela, Mariangel, The aunts, Luis, all of we, miss u so much.

You are the baby of my life, te amo por siempre. I love the way you are...

All is calm, all is bright

A Saturday morning with a Sunday feeling, following in the string of beautiful days like water droplets on cobwebs. Go take a walk in your yard, or around your block. See what you see. Shhhhhh...

Free Range Friday - Post Tryptophan Day

Feeling lazy after the big dinner preparation, friends and family gathering, early in the day late into the afternoon eating fest? Blame it on Tryptophan or just plain old wornoutness, there are some easy ideas for those space taking leftovers...

From Pham Fatale, a Shepard's Pie that reinvents yesterday's meal into something comforting and wonderful. From Closet Cooking, a slew of ideas from

So much to be thankful for!

This morning I woke up on the hilltop (house/dog/cat sitting) to a perfectly outrageous sunrise. Outside the wind was blowing and at 6 in the morning one of the churches was loud with singing (good music! happy music!), which was weirdly wonderful as the sun crested the horizon.


For some reason, the one thought clear in my head this morning was Walt Whitman. Now, I confess, I don't often think

Quick Thanksgiving Dinner Update! Pies!

At the cart this morning, Chris came up and told me I had to go look at Digna's island cranberries, that they were so beautiful I should get a photo of them. Island cranberries? I'd never heard of them. He manned the cart and I crossed the bridge to see these wonderous berries. And there they were, like tiny peaches...glowing, just like Chris said they were! Digna couldn't believe I'd never seen

Turkey day is almost here, that must mean the Culebra Turkey Race!

Daphne didn't want to stop running...ever!
Of course, I, as usual, didn't know the race was going on (when the announcement truck came by my house yesterday, he was humming a tune and then was too far away to hear anything he was saying - nice tune though). Luckily I stumbled across it as I was heading home from town, but missing the best part...the children running. There sure were a lot of

Culebra Odds and Ends

First, thank you to those who have written with offers of help, including donations, along with positive feedback and encouragement concerning Marsha's cats and Animal Welfare of Culebra. Each caring person means a lot and on behalf of AWC, here is one expression of thanks! The job isn't even close to done, but having hope is huge. Again, time is running very short; if you come up with one home

False Eye Lashes

Eye lashes simply make your eyes look fabulous, dramatic and very much attractive. Though we are born with natural eye lashes, however, fake eye lashes are the need of the day. There are full and individual types of eye lashes available in the market

One of the Paradox's of Paradise. You can help.

I am once again posting this , not only for Teresa, but for these animals who have known only two things in their lives, first, abandonment and then love, every time Marsha opened her door, her pocketbook and her and Ren's hearts to take them in. Now some of them are knowing an intensely  cruel death, by poisoning. Please read the following and if there is ANYthing you can do, suggest or

Free Range Friday - Thanksgiving gobble

This will be the first Thanksgiving since my first here (and I have no idea what I did that year) that we won't be orchestrated by Linda, who is in the far off North now, making new traditions. I secretly kept hoping she'd show up here and I think she hoped we might show up there. But we'll be here and at this moment, I have no idea what we're actually going to do for our usual communal

What happens when it's not quite sunny and sort of not raining on Culebra

Well, what happens to me anyway. Not much. Except finding incredibly stupid things on the internet in between trying to write a freelance piece that is serious. Because I don't do serious very well or for very long, I need the interruptions. Walking around the yard looking at flowers only goes so far.

So what did I find? The Oatmeal is a great site if you have some laugh-until-you-cry time on

Special post for Animal Lovers

I think this pretty well speaks for itself...thank you, Teresa.

As I'm sure most of you know by now, homes are urgently needed for Marsha's cats. Yesterday we found the body of one one of them very close to the house and, although I am not 100% sure, it might be due to poisoning. Poisoning causes a horrible death that we have not been able to stop in Culebra and, if it was the cause of

Los caminos de la vida

Me and my baby

Una Pequena Nota...

Oye mi vida como lograste que para ti solo fuera mi amor.. Con tu forma de ser, con tu amor, con ese Corazon tan hermoso me atrapaste y sin salida estas mi Corazon.

Gracias por pintarme la vida con hermosos colores gracias por sembrarme en el alma nuevas ilusiones. Yo vivo para ser mejor cada dia, para cultivarme, para disfrutar la familia maravillosa que tengo, y para ti cada mañana al despertar siempre estare ahy, sere tu angel quien te cuide quien te acompane y quien te ama con todo el Corazon.

Precioso, gracias a ti por estar a mi lado compartiendo momentos que siempre tengo presente y aunque en este momento no puedo tenerte fisicamente, muy pronto tendremos la vida entera para estar el uno con el otro.

Este mes se me hace eternooo…

Te amo mi bebe hermoso!

Late in the Very Good Monday

Sometimes, life on Culebra is exactly what it is supposed to be...some work, some play, and all shot through with tranquillo (even when the water pipe broke, we were laughing while we fixed it). What is there to say about that except...thank you...may I have another, please?

This is what I saw today, while working and after I got home...sadly, most of the water photos do not do justice to what

Culebra Sunday Mid-November

I'm not sure how almost half of November is over, but the calendar tells me it is so.
Walking down to the water this morning I was crouched down taking photos and a small flock of some sort of birds, sparrow like, whizzed inches from the top of my head and the front of my face like the Blue Angels on a mission. I've had hummingbirds wwwoar by me, but these little top guns were loud! They hid

Scoopin' it together Saturday

Some little birdies told me...
Where was I? Off to the Flea Market! Score! I didn't see anyone leave without something and most people had a couple of bags full of goodies that were going home to renewed uses. Thanks to the hardworking (and it is harder than it might look, I've done it and know that's true!) women who made it so easy for us to take advantage of our shared goods for such low

Art Basin 'Cup' - Artistic Washbasin by Artceram

Bring some pizzazz to the bathroom with a chic, artistic washbasin by Artceram. The art basin Cup, designed by Meneghello Paolelli Associati, is indeed a unique basin design inspired by a simple coffee cup. But this sink is anything but simple. This modern one-piece, freestanding washbasin boasts a cup-shaped base that flutes out at the top, forming the rim. And the looping handle makes a great towel hanger. This contemporary fixture comes in all white, or with a black exterior that contrasts the white interior with dramatic flair. The sink’s deep bowl is functional while adding to the “cup” theme. Pair these washbasins with some cool wall-mounted hardware and a mirror, and your contemporary powder room or bathroom is complete. More information is available at Artceram.

Height Adjustable Sinks - pedal sink by Rapsel

Talk about custom comforts! The Allatezza height adjustable sinks by Italian company Rapsel let you bring the water to your level. This telescopically adjustable sink is a freestanding design that works well against a wall or front and center. A pneumatic pedal at the back lets you pump it up – or down – to be ergonomically correct. But in our opinion, the style factor is most definitely pumped up! We love the glossy black finish, which is pure elegance with a good dose of drama. Also available in polished stainless steel. The height is ranging from 57 to 85 cm. Pair these sinks with some cool, modern hardware. A sink for all heights to raise your bathroom to new heights – visit Rapsel.

This versatile yet contemporary-style mineral marble sink melts into an integrated countertop. Underneath the colored cabinet doors you’ll find plenty of concealed storage, so all your essentials are tucked neatly away yet within easy reach. Check out the apron-front bathroom from Idea Group.

Washbasin Vanity Combo by Toscoquattro

Italy’s own Toscoquattro offers this cool washbasin-vanity combo that no modern bathroom is complete without. This contemporary two-in-one piece designed by A. Forte and C. Di Marzio is ideal for compact bathrooms, combining two essentials into one practical and style-savvy fixture. But regardless of your bathroom’s size, this combo unit boasts big style. The geometric yet gently rounded square base is but an empty frame, leaving an open interior to lighten the look. Add an optional compartment for convenient but out-of-the-way storage. Topping off this modern vanity is an integrated washbasin, complete with a raised shelf for your soaps, lotions and potions. A contemporary single-lever mixer and the luminous, LED-illuminated wall mirror round out your washing area. Place this freestanding fixture up against the wall or in the center of your bathroom; either way, it’s sure to take center stage. Check out this washbasin-vanity combo at Toscoquattro.

Versatile Bathroom Collection by Omvivo - New Neo

We love the new Neo, a versatile bathroom collection from Omvivo for the modern home. The company prides itself on a clean, contemporary aesthetic. “The intention was to create a bathroom range with uncomplicated and effortless style, with the needs and desires of today’s lifestyle strongly influencing the design,” according to Omvivo. And in keeping with modern must-haves, this versatile collection includes five basins and diverse configurations suited to any style, any space, from the small-but-sweet powder room to the sprawling spa-style en suite. And the versatility! The wall-mounted “floating” basin proves that less is more; while a basin with vanity, deep drawers and adjustable shelves has a place for everything and everything in its place. These solid acrylic sinks feature non-porous surfaces available in White, Mocha and Chamberry finish. For more information on Neo bathroom visit Omvivo.

Handmade Vessel Sinks by Sign

The handmade artisan style of this striking new vessel sink from Sign scores big points in the bathroom design and decor department. The Italian bath brand has reverted back to nature for this organically inspired bathroom vessel, which is traditional but would make a great addition to the modern, classic or contemporary spa-inspired space. We love the grey finish, featuring naturally occurring veins that bring a one-of-a-kind flair to each sink, which is also available in a white finish that’s neutral while maintaining a sense of excitement. This new vessel is all about shape – a smooth bowl with horizontal ridges that look like they’ve been hand-carved or spun on a potter’s wheel. Pair these sinks with ultra-modern faucets, and the look is complete. Check out these vessels by visiting Sign.

Eco-Friendly Washbasin by Phil Rose – Bu

Looking for something a little different in the way of bathroom washbasins? How about something a lot different? The Bu washbasin by Phil Rose is a modern, wall-mounted design, which plays on material opposites – earthy, eco-friendly, organic bamboo, versus ultra-modern high-gloss, ceramic-coated zinc die castings that offer the look of enameled cast iron. This contemporary combination of conflicts continues from the base of the washbasin and the tip of its faucet – a nice feature, given that washbasin designs typically end at the sink. Taking style and sustainability to new heights, the Bu bathroom washbasin makes our must-have list. For more

Modern Wall Mount Sinks by Equa are awesome

This ultra modern wall mount sinks from Equa System are so sleek and smooth – it’s hard not to get hooked in these pill-shaped fixtures that come with built-in faucets, towel holders and even electronic LED displays! The Web sink was shown at FuoriSalone2010, and made a splash – pardon the pun. It boasts utterly straight sides and a rounded bottom as a stark contrast to the sink’s sharp, angled upper rim. The cool, elongated exterior is enhanced by its clinical palette of white and chrome. Inside, the sink is extra deep as it is striking. For the ultimate in minimalism, put the Web sink in your ensuite, bathroom or powder room – you’ll enjoy the contemporary aesthetic for years to come. For more information go to Equa System.
