These Apricot Oatmeal Scones are a variation of Hollyce’s Oatmeal Scones. Every now and then I like to change or substitute ingredients in a recipe. I used dried apricots instead of currants, omitted orange zest, and added sugar sprinkle for the topping.
Oscar de la Renta {above}, in a moment backstage before he made an appearance to the audience after his Spring 2015 show. This photo was taken by Miguel Yatco. It was the last show before Oscar de la Renta passed away on October 20, 2014. He was the man who dressed women in beautiful clothes for decades. I will be sharing more about Oscar de la Renta and his influence in the fashion industry for the past 5 decades in my “part 2”. But for now, enjoy his beautiful collect for spring.

Oscar de la Renta spring 2015 collection is simply beautiful and visually pleasing. The look is youthful, fresh and as always elegant and classic.

Love is… unconditional, enduring, believing, caring, and something we can’t be without.
This is one of my favorite verses from the Bible… “faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” When apostle Paul wrote about love in the Bible, 1 Corinthians 13, is as relevant today as it was then. What is love? It never fails, it endures through eternity, and without love, there is emptiness. God is love.
Pretty… simple…. refreshing… and delicious Winter Citrus Salad. Neely Wang introduced this salad in her recent blog post, here. Her beautiful photos enticed me to try it… and glad I did. Neely was the photographer at an event that featured Chef Tony Najiola of Central Market. He was gracious to provide the winter citrus salad recipe for us to try.
