Fine Dining via First Class

So when I went to Europe for my Christmas Market Tour in November, my mom and I flew

there and back in first class. Wow!! What an experience that was. 

I'm not sure I can ever fly economy again for transcontinental flights. 

Being able to lay flat to sleep, your own tv screen with and 

endless supply of movies and tv shows to watch. Down comforters an full size pillows. Goody 

bags with socks, ear plugs, chap stick, lotion and a toothbrush and toothpaste. Nice! Not to 

mention the food. Oh my god!!! The gooooood was amazing. Orange juice or mimosas when 

you first board while waiting for the rest of the flight to board. Then they give you an full 

menu to look at. Yes.. I said full menu. With the appetizer, salad, dinner, dessert and second 

meal choices. Oh wow. This first count the warm peanuts and warm cookies they give you 

through our the flight. Here are some pictures of the meals we had. Soooo yummy!

The Birth of DarkNite Manor

I have officially done it!  I have closed escrow on my new house.  I am so excited to have finally upgraded after 12 years in 560 sq ft. 12 years this month as a matter of fact. I purchased my 1 bed room condo when I was 21 and here I am 33 and I have finally upgraded to a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom.. and here is the best part ;)... 2 car garage house. No neighbors attached to me at all direction. No freezing carport to park in that allowed everyone to know when I am home or not at any time. Full size washer and dryer instead of my itsy bitsy teeny weeny stackable unit that took 2 hours to dry one towel. Full and I repeat... FULL sized kitchen! Yay!!  I am so excited to move into my new home. 

My new house :)

I am super excited about my new porch.  I have always been in love with old victorian homes with wrap around porches, but lets be serious.  I can't afford one of those.  So when I saw this porch I just knew it was the house I have been waiting for.



My mock victorian porch

Another part I love is the vine ivy in the back that covers the fence.  It gives it a very old english cottage feel. 

Ivy vine covered back fence.  Reminds me of Europe :)

I am so excited about starting my whole new life in my new home... The DarkNite Manor.
