Merry and Happy Everything!

Hoping you had a wonderful holiday season and wishing you a beautiful start to the new year!  For me, 2013 consisted of travel, love, fashion, food, family, friendships and a move to SF (where I will be spending half my time in 2014) and of course, capturing it all via this creative outlet.

This year, my family decided that a last-minute trip to Las Vegas was the best way to spend Christmas (obviously...), and I have to say that Bellagio is still one of my favorite hotels...

With the Chihuly public installation covering the lobby ceiling...

And the flower display never disappoints - even with the shameless advertising...

The painfully fake snow...

The fluorescent lighting and the unnecessarily long line for the Bellagio Cafe (suffered through solely for the bananas foster waffle).

Not pictured: Though I've been to Vegas more times than I'd like to admit, this was the first time I went to Lotus of Siam, one of the top three Thai restaurants I've been to outside of Thailand (off the strip in a sketchy strip mall but suitably ranked as one of the best restaurants in Vegas).  Highly recommend it!
