Bethesda Fountain and Terrace
‘ Just around the corner from the Central Park Boathouse Cafe, which I blogged about on Friday, is another New York landmark known as Bethesda Fountain and Terrace.

The Win A Date With Tad Hamilton House

Daisie Villa’s Houseboat from “Rosewood”
‘ While I love the ocean, the thought of living on a houseboat has never appealed to me – that is until I caught a glimpse of the idyllic floating home belonging to Daisie Villa (Lisa Vidal) on the recently cancelled Fox procedural Rosewood.
