My Favorite Fall Weekend in Madison
There are just a few days left until my favorite fall weekend arrives. I’m looking forward to shopping like crazy at Madison Chautauqua Festival of Art on Saturday & Sunday.

Cha-what-qua?
I’ve heard it pronounced in a variety of ways and trying to spell it is always interesting. The Madison Chautauqua (shə-TAW-kwə) Festival of Art (September 28-29, 2013) is something I look forward to every year.

The truth is, I am already thinking ahead to the holidays. Retailers know all too well that we’re ready now to shift into Christmas mode. Like many women, I am the gift-buyer-in-chief for our household. I’ve found that the holiday season goes much smoother if I start thinking about Christmas gift selections early. What gifts … more
Home Cooking Warms the Community Spirit
Soup, Stew, Chili, and Brew is now one of my favorite Madison events, and I think it’s because it is all about community and sharing. I used to think it was all about food, but after living in Madison for several years, I understand why communities host these kinds of events. Of course delicious homemade … more
After Chautauqua We Are Still Surrounded by the Arts
Another Chautauqua weekend has come and passed, this year came with beautiful weather and a large crowd. My daughter and I walked and walked looking at paintings and handmade crafts, and stopping to listen to music here and there. We also completed some crafts of our own at the River Valley Financial kids craft tent. … more
