A Potholder from a homeless man

I was involved in a feeding program for the homeless community in downtown Dallas for one semester during college.

I didn’t realize the impact that feeding program would have on me many years later.

Avant Garden Spring Show at the Krohn Conservatory

January 26, 2014 By Nedra McDaniel 2 Comments

icicles on the winter at the Krohn Conservatory

This winter weather has me really looking forward to spring. I picked a snowy day to daydream of warmer temps at the Krohn Avant Garden Spring Show.

Experience a fresh and creative spring landscape at Krohn Conservatory’s 2014 Spring Show, the ‘Avant-Garden.’  The show will highlight a unique variety of exotic spring bulbs, fragrant shrubs, and bright annuals that are not commonly used in the typical spring garden.  Red crown imperials, twisted grasses, water hyacinths, brilliant blue delphiniums, and black tulips are just some of the plants to look for among the exciting palette of blossoming plants. 

Krohn Conservatory Avant Garden Spring Show Cincinnati Ohio Recycled materials are used in an ‘avant-garde’ style to enhance the imaginative landscape. Basket frames and tomato cages are transformed into moss-covered chandeliers, striking flower sculptures are created from layered glassware, and paint cans are repurposed to even hang plants upside down.  Enjoy an early spring at the Krohn Conservatory and be inspired by the ‘Avant-Garden!’

 I absolutely loved the creative repurposing of plates and glasses!

“Livin In The Cin” Photo Challenge {Instagram Favorites}

November 23, 2013 By Nedra McDaniel 2 Comments

1LivinInTheCinInstragramPhotoChallenge

One of my favorite forms of social media is Instagram. I LOVE checking out photos of friends and travelers. I also really enjoy taking pictures.

I’ve been a contributor for Cincinnati USA’s Livin In The Cin campaign over the past few months where myself and a few other local bloggers highlight hidden gems in our city.

My third mission from Cincinnati USA was to “Photograph one or more things, places, people, etc. that represent the challenge word given and show off reasons you are excited to live in Cincinnati USA.”

Holiday Junction featuring the Duke Energy Holiday Trains

November 6, 2013 By Nedra McDaniel Leave a Comment

It’s that time of year again.

There are some Cincinnati traditions that families look forward to each year. The Holiday Trains are one of those special traditions that mean a lot to audiences of all ages.  

I have fond memories of seeing the trains downtown as a child and now visitors can see the trains at their permanent location at the Cincinnati Museum Center.  

You know that Christmas is just around the corner when the trains are on display.

Flashdance -The Musical on Broadway

October 30, 2013 By Nedra McDaniel Leave a Comment

Even if you are too young to remember the movie, there is a good chance that you have heard the classic songs from the 1983 film Flashdance. I was really excited about seeing this play.

FlashdanceLogo

As a child who grew up in the 80’s, I knew that Flashdance – The Musical would be a fun show with lots of great dance numbers. I also recently went to Pittsburgh for the first time over the summer and I fell in love with the city and it’s hard working roots and grit, which is where the story takes place.
