On My Radar Screen

Happy Friday! What is everyone up to this weekend? We are headed into to the city this weekend for dinner at Maialino at the Gramercy Park Hotel. The menu looks amazing! I am also hoping to spot one or two of the big Easter eggs while I am in the city...

Since I didn't do an "On My Radar Screen" post last week, I have two weeks worth of goodies to share with you...so here goes...

I was searching for an image to start this post and found this amazing map by Antoine Corbineau featuring all the regional products of Italy! Go here to see more of his work.

A modern day fairy tale: Taking to Twitter to find the prince charming (who was sitting next to you on the plane)...

Via My French Country Home

Sharon Santoni from My French Country Home has begun a new series called "Step by Step ~ Paris" where she shares her expert knowledge of Paris, arrondissement by arrondissement, with stunning photos and her insider tips. Be sure to follow along each week...this week was the ever so lovely 1st.

Via I Dream Of

Did you catch the posts for the wonderful monthly By Invitation Only international group of bloggers? This select group picks a different theme every month and they all write about the same thing...this month they wrote about a topic near and dear to my heart...the five things you would take on a luxury cruise. My faves were the posts by Tina of The Enchanted Home, Marsha from Splenderosa and Jeanne of I Dream Of (who creates the most gorgeous watercolor illustrations). 



Via Aspiring Kennedy

Another of my favorite bloggers and travel maven, Lauren, of Aspiring Kennedy (also known as mom to the cutest traveling baby in the world, the adorable Viola) has revamped her site to include an excellent travel section. And, seriously, is Viola not the most precious thing you have ever seen?

Do you suffer from travel commitment problems? Now there is a new web site where you can lock in the price of a plane ticket without committing to purchase the ticket?

Via Kate Spade

I guess it isn't too surprising that I am completely smitten with Kate Spade's "Travel Colorfully" collection and theme for 2014 of "Places to Go...People to See". I love their blog, which, in collaboration with Fathom, is very travel oriented...they have been featuring a different location each month - recently they have featured Capri, Paris and now Monaco! UPDATE: Kate Spade announced their Friends and Family Sale this morning - 25% off your entire purchase...#travelcolorfully! (use code S14FFUS)

That is a wrap, my friends! Have a wonderful weekend filled with sunshine and spring blossoms...wherever you may be wandering...
