This is the sweetest video you'll watch all week

This is an excerpt from a live-streaming series we used to do on Facebook. This particular episode is about a delicious dessert Linda discovered in Patagonia called Dulce de Leche. I always thought this episode got less attention than it deserved so here it is on the blog for you to enjoy. It's clear to me that Linda had a delightful time finding out about the wonders of Dulce de Leche. I hope you'll try some of that amazing concoction. Enjoy!

The little fishes help keep passengers oriented on Norwegian cruises

I've become fascinated (some would say obsessed) with patterns lately. So, it was no surprise to anyone in our party that I was taking pictures of the carpeting in the miles and miles of passageways aboard the Pride of America on our Hawaiian cruise. There were colorful fish streaming all over the ship in interesting shades of green and blue. They seemed swimming in a murky bed of kelp, unaware of the tramp of passengers above. Then I noticed this red fellow. The Sesame Street song my kids used to sing came to mind: One of these fishies is not like the other ... I was curious about the wayward little fellow and I found out why he's swimming upstream, as it were. Turns out all his cousins are headed to the bow and he's headed to the stern. Norwegian does that on all its ships to help passengers to orient themselves in passageways that all look similar. In a feeble attempt at humor I nicknamed him Sammy (for salmon?) (groan).
