Farmers Market in The Village

The RivieraVillage has a new little secret! 

They now have their very own

Friday Farmers Market.

Rain or Shine

not just produce either.... all kinds of plants on display and ready to take home

and what will I make with these...

Freshly squeezed orange juice for me on Sunday

Ohhhh so yummy

This is where I spend most of my $$$$ Feta and goat cheese, fantastic pita bread and firm green olives

You can shop, walk around Or just hang out and enjoy the music

They also have lots of fresh flowers

and really nice and helpful vendors

but remember.... NO DOGS ALLOWED.  I brought my little yorkie the first time I went and they asked me to leave.  On Friday they were offering to hold your dog for you while you shopped. 

ROCKER ON THE BEACH

Just another Sunday morning on the beach... 

ROCKER spotted,  and He was Rockin

He started off softly

But it didn't take long...

It was as if he was in his own little world.

 he didn't care what anyone thought!

Gosh! I wish, I could be more like that.

It was awesome! 

Really!  I wish I had that in me.

I only rock like that NO ONE can see or hear me.

Note to self:  Rock out loud on the beach!

Beach Rules

My  little beach house ... has Rules...

 thanks to Ashley and our friend at Barn Owl Primitives. 

 I got this beauty for Christmas. 

She ordered it Shabby Chic style, especially for me,

to go with my home decor. 

I was so excited, to say the least.

 This is a picture of me

following the rules! 

RELAX! 

Love my stair master! Who needs the GYM!

I do my best to walk on the bike path in Redondo Beach everyday. 

(My best sucks latley)

and when I'm at my best I like to add the stairs.

This morning lots of walkers had the same idea.

I usually have to bend over or kneel down gasping for breath at the top of this one!

This one is killer too!

This one makes me happy, sometimes I do it twice.

The guy at the top is watching the dolphins.

What's your stair master?

Picture or not?

UGG!           I hate pictures of myself.  It should be obvious from my posts.  When you sell real estate you want people to remember you so we are told by our brokers and managers to plaster pictures of ourself on all of our marketing and advertisments.  

I would love to know what you think...  Should we Realtors put our pictures on our business cards and ads and fliers and websites and blogs?  Will you remember me without it?

Let me know what you think..Please!

Break of Dawn

In case you were wondering,

this is what 5 a.m. looks like {at the beach}.

And when my grandson visits me,

I get to see the beach at the break of dawn.

lucky me

But really,

look at that face,

lucky me!

Here is where you can find me for all your Real Estate needs!

I Love Love Love my Beach Cruiser and Hermosa Cyclery

I got my bike from Hermosa Cycle in Hermosa Beach.  I looked and looked for the perfect all WHITE Beach Cruiser!  Anyone that knows me knows I am obsessed with the color white.  I thought it only fitting that my bicycle matched my style.  After many days of searching I popped into the greatest place ever... Hermosa Cyclery  just off the pier and Waa-Laa....  

Meet Sunny...         She makes me happy!

Hermosa Cyclery was so nice to work with.  They understood my need for everything white!  They had to special order it and they had it rushed to the store so I could have it for the weekend.  I got to watch while they put her together.   

They even let me bring her back the very next weekend for some minor adjustments. When I brought her back the owner remembered my name and even gave me a set of free bike rental certificates for some friends .  These people know how to do business.  Love love love them! 

I wake up every morning hoping the sun will be shinning so I can take her out!

I've been very lucky the past two weekends! It's been GORGEOUS!

Best of all...I can even ride her down the street to my office, Palm Realty Bouitque... but that's only if I don't have appointments!  It's hard to get my clients to sit on the handlebars.

I got flowers today

I just love Saturday Mornings...  Lazy, Sunny, Smell good mornings.  Nothing makes them better then a big beautiful bunch of fresh flowers and a Starbucks!

This vase has been empty all week!

Arranging them makes me happy!

What makes you happy?

Perfect!

Thank you Honey! 

It felt like Spring at the beach today!

I woke up this morning to a big, bright ,beautiful day at the beach. 

Flowers are starting to bloom. 





I Just Love Beach Flowers

 

These might be beach weeds...

This is January... Right?

I jumped in the car about 10:00 and headed to The Village to get an I miss you card for my BFF from my favorite card shop...

card de a

Then popped into Trader Joes for some wine, nuts and apples and fresh flowers

then walked down the street to my nail shop

Riviera Nails to book an appointment for a much needed mani/pedi tomorrow.

It wasnt until I got home that I wished I had rode my bike.  I'll keep my fingers crossed for another big, bright, beautiful day real soon!
