Well, that's how I felt last week at La Costa, where we were doing a photo shoot for a magazine...

The thunder and lightening was crashing around us, but the shoot must go on! It's that time of the year again, when all the magazines start their round of photo shoots...I just wanted to do something very different, so I headed to the nursery, and found some awesome succulents...then I went to the grocery store, and found some crazy veggies, that made this table top a little more interesting than the 'norm'...then I went to my storage room (that would make Martha Stewart proud) and found some wonderful vintage silver pieces in my own personal collection that created the perfect juxtaposition with the succulents...Carol Smith at Invitation Factory created the fun menus and CD party favors, and Wild Flower Linens supplied us with the beautiful linens in soft shades of taupe and mauve, that rocked with the natural beauty of the grounds at La Costa Spa and Resort...

And best thing yet, my fate was not that of the priest in Caddyshack...I made it thru the lightening strikes!
