The good news (since I am an eternal optimist… even in the toughest of times) ….
I placed third yesterday in my age group for the bikini division.
The bad news… there were three contestants.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Made you laugh!
🤷‍♀️
For every winner there’s a loser … and yesterday that was me. I am sorry to have disappointed some of you. For a while based on where I was standing I thought I took second. And then I went back for finals and realized … nope. I lost.
At first… honestly… I was crushed. I have never pined for a victory more. But the girls I was up against really were better than me. And I loved them. After spending more than 12 hours standing next to two people … you get to talking.
And once I learned their stories … I knew… they needed it just as much as me.
We all need wins in life.
And friendship and people who show up for you.
If I am being absolutely truthful my favorite things about yesterday were seeing my kids, my husband, Frank, Tori & Lyla … and a few surprise visitors who came up and hugged me!!!
I put make up on Lyla and gave her one of my sparkly bracelets.
I brought a sprinkle of Rosemary Fresh… giving bread to those friends working the show backstage.
Was I a little embarrassed for losing. Yes. I was.
And then I went home to Biella Rose … binge watched house hunters international … ate some my own granola which I have craved for months… and went to bed knowing the real victories in life … aren’t won on a stage.
But in your heart.
Cheers to all of you … for believing in me and helping me make it to the stage despite breast cancer and a bizarre mini stroke and a horrendous allergic reaction!!! Yikes 😳
I wouldn’t have had the strength to do it without you.
So… thank you.
For now? I am SO excited for a big Italian family dinner… can anyone say homemade pasta?!!!
Food is love… friends and family are everything… stages come and go… but love wins!
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Leo is proof that there is always room for one more.
That the best things come in threes.
And that you are never too old to have fun.
For 14 years, that’s what life with Leo has brought us… the fun.
The silly. The levity and love at times of hardship and fear. He is the calm
To every storm.
From the pitcher’s mound to the dinner table … Leo can zing them like no one else. One liners. Sarcasm.
He has Grandma’s British wit, my Mom’s heart, My Dad’s eyes and baseball skills and Grandpa’s ability to skirt all chores. Including washing the dishes!
He is the glue. And the jelly.
He binds us even when we all want to kill each other.
He’s loyal. Strong like an ox but can run like a gazelle. Sometimes I think he doesn’t touch the ground.
He’s an amazing writer … just don’t talk about it though. He loves to fish … for hours.
One time he caught a perch with his buddy Jack and we sautéed it in a caper butter sauce …. When plated it measured two inches. Ha!
He has amazing hair… and the bluest of eyes. He’s our ice man.
And today we celebrate him the best way we know how… with pizza and chocolate and time at the y pumping iron… baseball practice and presents galore.
You are the icing on every cake Leo. And the joy in my life.
I love you. Happy 14!!!

I might not be the coolest … but if you order up a bomb bday cake … guess what?
I can make it!
From scratch…so bomb it will blow your socks off … haaaaaa
This is 14. This is Leo. This is me showing my love for the little guy who is not so little anymore. He kissed me as he walked out the door … Mom … you are shrinking!
I put some pansies on in retaliation… 😆😆😆 alas he is much much bigger than me!!! And cuter ❤️❤️
For the big day I made …
Devil’s food cake … triple chocolate fudge frosting … a layer of strawberry jam … and hand dipped white chocolate and milk chocolate strawberries … 14 plus 1 big one in the shape of a heart for good luck!
Moms loves you ❤️❤️❤️

The house smells like home again. Warm scones fresh out of the oven … blueberry lemon and butterscotch chocolate.
Within minutes of them hitting the counter … I had an audience … two sleepy eyed boys grateful that Mom is back.
And so are the baked goods.
I’m proceeding slowly.
Life has been somewhat unpredictable lately. But I am ever so grateful to be back in the kitchen just in time for my Cha.
My grocery list is long … my menu a taste of spring (something Mother Nature seems to have forgotten) and happiness and gratitude on a platter.
We will be celebrating at Biella Rose … which is just a hop skip and a jump from Cha’s school…Portsmouth Abbey.
The weather looks wretched but who cares…
There will be a lot of lemon … hence we’ve been handed a few.
But that’s ok… I make killer lemon bars.
Stay tuned… did anyone say chocolate torte?
Vanilla blueberry layer cake?
Ohhhhh and oodles of Stromboli!!! Let’s go!!! I love you my Cha and all your girls …Mumsie is coming for you.

I will never take my health for granted. Again.
Three hospital visits and two medical scares later. And, I know how precious life can be. And, how quickly things can change … for better or for worse.
As you can see … I am back to myself.
I am leaving the doctor’s office with a slightly better understanding of what happened to me last week.
And a warning … and protocols… in case the symptoms should reappear.
Last Wednesday … I experienced either a mini stroke or a complex migraine (three docs have weighed in … two say stroke one says migraine) … while driving from Tiverton to Easton on Route 24.
All agreed that the temporary speech and motor paralysis that alarmed first responders and my poor husband …has been reversed. I got lucky. As real strokes leave permanent damage and mini ones … heal.
However…
While caring for me in the hospital, I was given several brain scans with contrast dye.
Repeatedly.
Doctors believe my secondary episode of intense swelling was a reaction to that dye.
I will never receive it again.
Moving forward … I am allowed to resume radiation for my breast cancer treatment next week … and I need to continue to see a neurologist.
Surely I have and will always be a head case.
As I drive away from the doctor’s office today … I am reminded of just how lucky I am. There was an ambulance pulling in.
I know that even though it looks like I have pretty crummy luck. I choose to see the positive.
Sure … I have breast cancer. And my head is a little wonky … and my body hates dye … but I’m here.
And I’m grateful.
Thank you to everyone. This community is amazing. Social media may have its pitfalls but it can be good too.
It can bring people together and make them feel loved.
I appreciate every single one of you. I think when you put good out into the world … it always comes back in spades.
In that … I am quite lucky.
My girl graduates this weekend and so my attention is on that now … and all the other good things that life will bring.
Food is love. Friends and family are everything … and your health is all you need to live each day with gratitude.
💗💗💗

You never want to be the medical mystery. And these days, you definitely don’t want to be me.
This is a vulnerable post but an important one that I feel I must share at my own embarrassment.
My story is an insight sadly into today’s health care system witnessed first hand by someone undergoing an emergency.
Thank God for first responders.
While driving home from Tiverton on Wednesday I started feeling dizzy. Some nausea and the rumblings of a pounding headache.
Then these icy tingles began to run up my arm. My legs felt weak.
The left side of my body began to feel numb.
I thought … I am going to pass out. I made a quick decision to get off the highway in Dighton … I pulled off on a side street and passed out next to my car in the gravel.
A man found me and convinced me to get back in the car after he told me he was going to take me home. Um… no thank you.
I called Nick. He said I was slurring my speech and that he was at least an hour away, and to call 911.
I believe those first responders saved my life. I am grateful to them and the crew that arrived in my Easton driveway today.
All together, I spent three days in three different hospitals and was admitted overnight.
I woke up this morning at home in Easton with my face doubled in size … the skin so tight it felt like sandpaper tearing apart, I could not open my eyes or speak.
That’s when the second ambulance came and back to the hospital I went. This time to Good Sam. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to the kind woman in imaging who knew me from Rosemary Fresh and helped me. I will always be in your debt.
With that being said…
I have no formal diagnosis.
No one knows what is wrong with me or how to fix it. And because it’s so difficult to find a P*P in today’s medical culture … I have no one to turn to to help me. My doctor sold out and decided to enter executive care.
I have an oncologist … but his secretary told us he doesn’t help with these matters.
So I’m a 52 year old incredibly healthy woman with breast cancer who had what the first doctor thought was a mini stroke. However… both my CT scan and my MRI came back fine.
Which is why everyone is stumped. I had all of the symptoms of stroke but none of the recognizable signs on xray.
I have no idea if I should proceed with radiation.
No one knows why this is happening to me Or if it will happen again. I am on Benadryl and steroids (this was my idea by the way after no one knew what else to do… sure the doctor said we can try that) to keep the swelling down and make sure I can swallow. She was very kind but she has way too many patients to juggle to play House and figure out what the heck is happening. I haven’t been shot and I’m not having a heart attack.
So… Here I am. I was discharged from the hospital with a good luck.
I have lost almost all of my grip strength … walking is hard for me … I have to focus on the steps. It hurts to blink. My words are still garbled. My smile is crooked. I have done everything right. I don’t drink. I don’t smoke. I work out 6 days a week. I eat clean. I drink water. Dammit I was two weeks away from a bodybuilding competition.
I try to be a good person and love with my whole heart.
And yet … I feel as if I am dying and I can do nothing to save myself.
