I'm a dash of Jackie O. A pinch of Elly May. A splash of Quelques Fleurs. A jigger of pickle juice. My friends call me Boots. My name is JoBeth. I'm just a southern girl who adores a great tune, a delicious meal, beautiful flowers, a frilly dress, and the perfect shoe. I'm married to a curly haired boy I call "The Angler". By day, I'm a healthcare stategist with a passion for NonProfits. I have a Masters degree in food. Literally. I am a registered dietitian, but I do love burgers and chocolate chip cookies. I survived being President of the Junior League. I'm a daydreamer, an avid i-pod shuffler and a novice photographer. I love to laugh. I'm often silly with a heapin' helpin' of sappy. I'm blessed beyond measure and amazed by God's grace. I try to keep my high heels walking in faith one step at a time, It's my prayer to help other women live beautiful, gracious lives.
Like all true southerners, I come from a long line of storytellers. My favorite stories paint pictures. And great pictures tell stories. I hope to accomplish both on this blog. So, grab yourself a glass of sweet tea, kick off your Manolo's and sit a spell on my virtual veranda. Flair and folly awaits.
Do tell!

Last Friday, I attended the Chick-fil-A Leadercast. It was an inspirational day wrought with tips for building stronger, healthier organizations and a better self. One of the highlights for me was Marcus Buckingham, co-author of Now, Discover your Strengths. I’m a big fan of the StrengthsFinder methodology and was excited to...

Planning is my nature. It’s what I do – literally – every single day. When it comes to travel, I am no different. I research top restaurants to the hole-in-the-wall favorites, shopping, and all the must see attractions. I come up with a very ambitious gameplan for seeing the sites. Having had only...
