What's in a Name

My mother's nickname for me was Grace, and I have always been extremely curious about EVERYTHING.  My father often told me to MYOB, as did all my family and friends. Grace - I wish- was because of my swan like movements, but I was a duckling (not the ugly kind, the super cute kind - see picture to the left) that could barely walk. My mom passed away many years ago, but I know she is proud of that swan I am becoming; even if I am still covered in bruises:) Growing up, we always had family dinner, and I was always curious about what we were having, She was a great cook, luckily she shared many of her secrets with me - her Fannie Farmer cookbook will always be my most prized possession.  My blog is a place to showcase all my curiosities of food, photography,  travel and loving life's simple pleasures. I hope you have as much fun reading,  as I do capturing my moments. I am so glad you are here!
