UPDATE: Dear China, If we send you money will you keep him? I can’t wait to listen to all the talk show hosts this week make jokes about Nagin being quarantined in China. There is no doubt that many wish he would be quarantined until May 2010 – LOL! So, if you have something funny …
For those on the Northshore, or even the Southshore who have not been to Ruby’s Roadhouse in Mandeville, time to get up and go. Yours truly is not much one for going to bars and dancing these days (seems going out is limited to events). However, being that is a hop skip and a jump …
Need to know where to go for a tea party in Louisiana today? Click here. See you in Baton Rouge and Mandeville!
Update: I have been informed that there is no way a cute koala on my thigh could be a tramp stamp! However, it is a catchy title so I’ll stick with it! Who knows – maybe the next one will be:) I wanted a tattoo all through high school but forced my self to wait …
Not making fun of dementia or Alzheimer’s. In fact, I’m dealing with dementia with my father (it sucks). Anyhoo, if I were a politician, I would automatically claim to be taking Aricept for memory problems. In fact, I would demand the prescribed it to me in case….well…in case a problem ever arises. If I were …
We tried the new Wine Loft Bar in Mandeville, LA on Saturday night. After visiting their website, now I realize it is a franchise. The beauty of this establishment is that it is in walking distance from our house – woot woot. But I had to wear my new stilettos – so walking was out. …
Kudos to my daughter’s teacher for incorporating play money as part of her curriculum. The kids earn money for good behavior and for being on task. My weekly volunteer hours are to count money with the kids and they light up as soon as they see me turn the corner. I usually hear a, “Miss …
If you live in Louisiana (not far how this stretches), at least St. Tammany, you do not have yellow filters over your eyes! This yellow pollen haze is real and it is kicking my arse! Forget car washes for now, don’t bother pressure washing your house just yet, keep your windows closed and be careful …
“Hail Orpheus, Hail Yes!” is the saying from the Krewe my husband rides in. The Original Krewe of Orpheus rolled last night in Mandeville and hubby had a fabulous day, beginning with golf at 8:30 and ending after 11 with the end of the parade in walking distance from our house. My curiosity got the …
I received this e-mail today from my friend, Michelle Boudreaux. She gave me permission to share. Hey Everyone, Attached is a flyer for an event that some local high school kids have put together to benefit Mary-Payton Vigil. A group of girls decided that they did not want a sweet sixteen party this year, one …
Skydiving, rock climbing, climbing to the top of the Swiss Alps, skiing down a black diamond were all exciting, but were not comparable to the 3 hours I rode in the Krewe of Eve last night. Though I continue to preach to people that they must experience Mardi Gras at least once in their life, …
This is the getting ready portion of the parade. Enjoy.
Friday the 13th is whenthe Krewe of Eve (women’s parade) rolls in Mandeville. This is my first time riding and I’m so excited. I have so much to learn, but Yoda Debbi (she invited me in) is teaching me the ropes. The best tricks she taught me is how to save money. Since I was …
Princess Whinalot: Can I have a hamster for my birthday in September? Me: No PW: Well then I’ll ask Santa for a hamster? Me: He’ll have to ask my permission first and I’ll say no. PW: If I get enough money for Christmas & Hannukah, I am going to buy my own hamster. Me: I …
