“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 …
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 …
The more I experience life – the more I believe in “karma.” After reading the headline below today, I truly believe that the man who stole from this boy who was bitten by an alligator – will get his! Now, what I wish for this man in return from stealing from a young boy may …

This past year I have let my wonderful readers, my social networking friends, my radio audience and everyone I meet know about some of the needs of our men and women currently in uniform, their families, and our Veterans through Soldiers’ Angels. I am overwhelmed knowing that people really want to help when they know …

I will be collecting items to bring to this family to give them something for Christmas. They are only asking for clothes for their children. Please contact me if you are able to help out (985)807-4805 gretaperry@gmail.com
I am so disgusted with how “over the top” Christmas has become. Buhleeve me – my house is ridiculous as well. Today, my kids are passing out their gifts to all their teachers and bus drivers. Instead of buying them something, this year I purchased a Christmas “Wrapped in Holiday” care package in honor of …

I am writing this for those who have never been to a Royal Revelation Ceremony and for those who are convinced that Mardi Gras is only about girls tits boobs (that will increase my traffic – mwuhahaha). Last year my husband rode in the Orginal Krewe of Oprheus, but came in late. This year, he …
