OK AR Member's, do you ever feel a little awkward whipping out your........CAMERA because you saw the potential of a great ActiveRain Localism BLOG about a local shop, restaurant, or event but didn't have the courage to snap away?

Well don't anymore!  As ActiveRain member's we are given a great SEO tool thanks to AR to help spread the word about everything and anything in our local communities.  I for one will never take Localism for granted again. 

Recently I visited a local shop  and had an AH-HA Blogging Moment and I wanted to share it with the community....but I was afraid to whip out my camera for fear of the employees or in this case the owner's would wonder what I was up to.....what did I want.....or start dialing 911!  Don't ask me why but I always have these guilty feelings.

So after touring the store and meeting the owner's I ASKED (how simple is that!) if they would mind me taking some pictures and blogging about their great local shop.  At first they looked puzzled and were unaware of blogging but said "Sure!"  I told them I would send them a copy of the blog when it was done.  I still think they might have thought "what does she want" but I am glad they obliged.

Boy am I glad I had the courage to ASK and whip it out!  :)

The owner's were so happy with my Localism blog they sent me a lovely email thank you.

From one owner............

Thank you so much!!!!  Your blog was fantastic!  I'm not real computer savvy when it comes to putting together anything like what you did for the shop and really appreciate your blogging our store.

Thanks again, as a mom and pop store off the beaten track we need all the exposure we can get.

Then another owner..........

You wrote a very lovely article about "Jack's Nuts"....I thank you kindly...We appreciate it and are very thankful for all the props that we can get............

I thank you much for paying tribute...You are very kind.

To top it off they sent me another email letting me know that a local realtor stopped in after reading my blog!!  How cool is that!

So long blog short, if you haven't had the courage to whip it out and spread the word about wonderful local events, restaurants or shops in your community I dare you to do it now!  You will be helping your community and your business!  And who doesn't need that?  :)

Thanks AR! 

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Ahhhhhh the good ole' day's...or were they?  Believe it or not I was really proud of these costumes my Dad painted for my best friend Diane and I back in 1976.  Cigarettes & Matches!  What were my parents thinking???  Could you imaging trying to send your kids to school in these costumes??? 

Yup...that's me on the left. Aren't I Kool??  How about those fab pants! Hey...how come my Baby Bro wasn't the ashtray? Of course my Big Sis was probably the instigator in this Halloween Fiasco!

Money was tight and using what was available made perfect sense.  You should have seen us as we gracefully bumped our way into each other trick or treating door to door. 

Ok so these costume's are totally GREEN but not too politically correct! :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ok AR Member's......Do you dare to share what you were back in the Good Ole' Days?????

My husband Mark and I have been lucky enough to live in Temecula/Murrieta Valley for 20 years.  And over those 20 years we have enjoyed many great local events. 

This weekend in Temecula Valley Wine Country is one of our BEST events/traditions held by the Temecula Valley Winegrowers Association!  Trust me, if you are a wine lover you DO NOT want to MISS the Harvest Wine Celebration.  Lot's of fun people, yummy food, beautiful views, oh yeah....and GREAT WINE!

You get the opportunity to visit 22 wineries (10am-5pm) once over 2 days and sample great wine and fab food for only $89.00!  The toughest part of this event for me is trying to decide which wineries to visit!!  Sure you can hit them all up within 2 days (my math tells me that's about 11/day...YIKES) but be sure to have a Designated Driver with you! :)

Don't like crowds......Me neither!  Don't worry....Most of the wineries you visit on this 2 day event have special VIP areas exclusively for wine event member's.  Ahhhh now I feel special.  :) Ok so you can't make it both days...if you are a Local Temecula/Murrieta resident you can pay for Sunday only for $59.00.  How cool is that?  It's good to a Local!  :)

You don't like wine but love good food in a great atmosphere...then sign up as a Designated Driver and pay only $59.00 for the whole weekend.  Hey....you'll be cheaper then a Limo and can get other's to hopefully pay your way!  :)

OK are you out of excuses yet? ;) 

If you can't make it to this fabulous event check out the Winter Barrel Tasting January 26-27, 2008. See I am not taking NO for an answer!!!

For reservations to this weekend's Harvest Wine Celebration call 800-801-WINE, Order Online or purchase tickets at Callaway Winery.  

"Don't delay....drink good wine today!"

Yesterday my BFF Laura and I had the pleasure to relax and stroll along the sidewalks of charming Old Town Temecula.  We always try to pretend we are on vacation and look through "tourist eyes" which help us explore a little further out of our comfort zone....you know, favorite local restaurants, specialty shops and wineries. 

Ha!  We were quite the adventurous duo,  we had to walk only a few steps off of Front Street...the main drag of Old Town.  And boy am I glad we did!

 

We found a great Old Town Temecula addition when we stumbled into Jack's Nut's! A store full of...you guessed it..NUTS!  Located at 42072 Fifth Street, Suite 106, Temecula, CA. 

 

We were greeted by the owner's Claudia & Jack Keaton.  A great friendly and helpful couple originally from Michigan and married 38 years.  Yes that is no typo!  38 years.  Could the secret be something in the nuts??  :)

I was overwhelmed by what I saw when I walked in. I mean I was expecting to see nuts...duh...but this place is like NUT HEAVEN! 

Ahhhhh, decisions...decisions...decisions....

Almonds, peanuts, pistachios, cashews. pecans, macadamia, corn nuts....etc.   Do you want them salted, smoked, roasted?  How about Chipolte, Jalapeno, Toffee,  Chili/Lemon, Jalapeno/Ranch, Sour Cream & Onion.....etc!  Who knew there could be so many choices!

All of Jack's Nuts are brought into this store NAKED and prepared in their store.  You can't get much fresher or better then that!  And if you are a fan of HOT...Jack's Nuts are claimed to be "The Hottest nuts in town!"  Claudia and Jack were happy to let us sample their...you know...HOT NUTS!  They were fantastic.

I am so glad that I was able to find this little NUGGET that has been in Temecula for 3 years.  3 years!!!  Sheesh...Where have I been??

I am already planning on doing quite a bit of Holiday shopping at this great local shop. 

If you are in the area I highly recommend walking a few steps off the "main drag"  and checking out Jack's Nuts.  You won't be disappointed. :)  Oh yeah did I mention the flavored popcorn.....ahhh nuts!  Next time!

Today I am on my way to see some of the wonderful independent films at the Temecula Valley International Film & Music Festival.  Located at The Movie Experience in Tower Plaza, corner of Ynez and Rancho California Road. This event runs daily through Sunday and ticket prices range from individual screening to festival passes, $8-$200. 

I have been once before with a girlfriend and we had a blast!  Going from one movie to the next trying to  fit in as many movies as we could for only $15.00.  A total bargain.  Not including all the popcorn you will be able to eat in one day!! That may blow your budget! :)

We were able to see comedies, feature films, short stories and even cartoons.  At some of the theater's we were able ask questions and hear from directors, producers and even actors of these films.  Then we were given score sheets that allowed us to review and vote for our favorite film.  A really cool experience.

I will try to report back...and let you know what I find out this year!

If you have some free time this weekend I highly recommend that you attend this wonderful event.  If you couldn't get to Sundance  this year come to Temecula!  You will not be disappointed.

This morning I woke up to find an AR Featured Post by Kathy McGraw, California whom I had the pleasure of working with by home staging her listing in Banning, CA.

Kathy's post Tuesday Truths- Do you really trust other Real Estate Professionals?  is a must read about working with and learning from other RE Professionals...and in this case through ActiveRain.

"Professional Respect and Working Together for the common goal of helping the client......Yes 3 Active Rain Members Working together." - Kathy McGraw, Realtor

How sweet is that!!!!! :)

I was humbled and excited by this post and comments from Realtors about Home Staging.  Here are a few comments from Kathy's post of what AR Realtors are saying about Home Staging & Home Stager's. 

"It is part of all my listing presentation.  I give a $350.00 staging credit..." Tatyana Sturm, Colorado

"I'm a big proponent of staging and the concept was foreign to me before I joined AR."  Jason Sardi, Pennsylvania

"......oh the art of delegating and relying on expertise!"  Lisa Moras, Vancouver

"If you can help a potential buyer visualize a property, I think you are helping him/her."  Huiting Zhuang, Rhode Island

"I'm so glad you listened as I know by looking at the photo's it will help the house sell." Missy Caulk, Michigan

"The folks who resist will have to wait longer to sell the home in an already over saturated market!"  Russell Lewis, Texas

"When I want something done, I just make sure she (home stager) mentions it to the seller.  Teamwork!"  Audrey June-Forshey, Maryland 

"Good for you to recognize your initial resistance and move past it." Lynn Johnson, Minnesota

"one thing that, to me, is non-negotiable is a staging appointment (we love Val Allocco)."  Laurie Mindnich, New York

 "I love your idea of getting a stager to tell them. Maybe they'll take it better from someone else."  Linda Jandura, North Carolina

"Selling the value of staging presents it's own challenges however I believe it is part of our duty as trusted advisers..."  Kathleen Daniels, California

"I have always wondered about staging and am in the process of bringing in a local stager to do a roundtable"  Roy Paeth, Illinois

"It makes a huge difference not only in how the house looks on showings, but how the house looks in those all important online photos..." Jennifer Mallory, New York

"a great testimony to active/rain, blogging and staging" Kathy Clulow, Ontario

I hope you enjoy these comments as much as I did.  Home Staging is getting recognized more and more through the help of ActiveRain, TV Shows, Education....etc.  What really impressed me was that Kathy learned about Home Staging because of ActiveRain.  Yahhhhh!   Thank You AR for helping to spread the word about the power of networking and home staging!

Yup!  That's right....I got paid in wine!!!  Here's the uncorked tale........ 

Susan & Marshall Stuart owner's of Stuart Cellars Winery were looking for a quick inexpensive change to their winery.  So when Susan called to ask me to help choose paint colors and redesign using their current accessories I was thrilled!  Trust me...if you know me....you know I will look for any excuse to visit the Temecula Wine Country in Southern California!!  Plus Stuart Cellar's is one of my favorite wineries and if I could help the winery to look its best it's a win-win for all!

Susan and I met at one of her favorite Italian restaurants Francesca's Italian Kitchen so that I could see the paint colors and atmosphere she was trying to achieve at the winery.  The colors were very Tuscan and I loved them as much as her!

These pictures to the right and left are some of the rooms we were working with.....lots of white walls except for one area that was painted a dated green color with an adjacent wall sponged tan. Susan also wanted to figure out a more attractive way to store the wine boxes that need to be easily available by the cashier. Her goal was to have the Tasting Room to look more like a Tasting Room and not a warehouse. 

We spent only a couple of hours choosing colors for each wall and area, deciding how to best store inventory and planning out the best way to rearranging furniture, accessories and items for sale.  

Here are a few examples of what was accomplished after two days of painting and redesigning............

A warm and inviting Wine Tasting Room with plenty of open spaces to wander awhile, taste awhile and shop a lot! No more cafeteria look to this hot spot.   

Susan and Marshall along with the Tasting Room Staff .......which at first were skeptical watching Susan and I plan our "attack"....... were pleasantly surprised!  Local wine club member's were also surprised and happy to visit their new and improved home away from home! 

If you are interested in seeing the rest of the transformation and taste some excellant vino.....visit this fabulous award winning winery!  It would be my pleasure to show you around the wonderful Wine Country of Temecula.  You will not be disappointed!  Cheers!      

Don't forget to Stop and Smell the Vineyards......
