Hello Friends, March is one of my favorite months for this reason- It is the only month on our yearly calendar that gives us a call to action. March.

Morning friends, I’m on my way to California to attend a seminar and meet my assistant Kim, for the very first time. In the age of virtual, Kim has been managing the technical part of things since February from where she lives in California while I’m located in Pennsylvania.

Morning friends, Today I’m flying home from sunny (and I mean SUNNY) California where I just spent nine wonderful but exhausting days cooking and taking care of my grandbabies.
