Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
I am so excited because tomorrow I will be attending my first Blogger’s Conference – The Blog Workshop. It’s an an online virtual 3-day/3 hour conference with some great topics and speakers and I am psyched!! I expect to gain the knowledge necessary to help me grow my blog and am looking forward to meeting other bloggers as well – will you be there?
The pool is now open and because The Blog Workshop begins in the evenings I’ll have plenty of time to work outside in preparation of the Memorial Day holiday.
Today is Peachy Polka Dots – can you spy a change?

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
Today is my last day at work until next Tuesday, the 2nd of April and I am counting down the hours! Looking forward to relaxing but more importantly cleaning out my closets! Getting ready for the 1st Flea Market of the season and will be gathering unused clothes and household items in order to make a little extra cash.
This is my favorite maxi skirt and I will be keeping it because the print can be paired with a variety of tops and shoes, therefore, it will always be a closet staple.
Skirt -Boscov’s // Twin Set Sweater – closet staple // Mossimo Embellished flats – Target
Shawl – Burlington Coat Factory
Necklace and Earring Set – Jewelrymax.net // Bracelets – Burlington Coat Factory // Ring – Mizoutlet.com // Watch – Avon
What items in your closet will always be keepers?

Hello Friends and Happy President’s Day 2013
Lucky lucky you if you are home today on holiday because “it’s as cold as a witches’ tit”! I remember that as being one of my mother’s favorite sayings during those cold New York winters. Do you remember any crude statements that your parents or grandparents liked to say way before it would be considered politically incorrect? (careful)
In honor of President’s Day I was going to wear Red with Blue and White Polka Dots but it’s just too cold. Instead I chose the warm and cozy flannel shirt that my son put in the “to be donated” box but never made it, a thrifted khaki skirt and knee high boots – it’s all about keeping warm! I like these boots because they can be worn full length showing the brass studs or folded over to reveal the leopard print – two styles in one for less than $20!
Flannel Shirt – son’s giveaway // Skirt – GW Boutique (Goodwill) // Boots – Rugged Wearhouse // Watch – Avon // Rings, Earrings and Bracely – Jewelry Box // Belt –
I’ve added more pictures to my “As Seen Through My Car Window” page – check them out when you get a chance.

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday
It’s the day before Valentine’s Day, do you have anything special planned…will Cupid be shooting any arrows your way? I’ve never been big on V-Day and prefer to get my candy the day after when it’s half price – lol Hubby and I may go out to dinner Friday night and I bought my sons a card and some candy from Dollar Tree, otherwise nothing special. I guess when you are single and dating, Valentine’s Day is more of a Holiday, but I tell my men everyday that I love them and the 14th of February will be no different.
I am still wearing red in honor of “America Goes Red for Women” month and will wear a wee bit more tomorrow.
We are expecting snow but not until this evening so I decided to wear my grey, suede booties to pick up the color in the shirt.
These Bamboo faux fur trimmed booties were purchased a few years ago from Burlington Coat Factory and despite their “ugliness”, they are quite comfortable.
Necklace – New York & Company // Rhinestone Buttefly Ring – Icings // Top – Old Navy // Skirt – Boscov’s // watch – Avon
I must admit that I am looking forward to eating a least a piece of chocolate tomorrow!

Hello Friends and Happy Sunday
This morning’s Church service was good, unfortunately the building was without heat but our souls was warmed by the Word. I hope the rest of your day goes well and if you are off tomorrow for Dr. King’s Birthday, (I’m not), enjoy and be a blessing to someone!
I was really excited to realize that the Miche bag I had purchased in November at the Holiday Open House, matched the shoes that I purchased from Target last week. Don’t you love when that happens?
Dress – Ross // Blazer – GW Boutique (Goodwill) // Python Print Pumps – Mossimo via Target // Python Print Purse – Miche // Earrings, Bracelet and Necklace – jewelry box

Hello Friends and Happy Christmas Eve Eve!
This afternoon #2 son and I went to Costco and Target and it was a crazy madhouse, I left tired with a headache and empty handed (too many crying babies). I have one more day to get a gift for #1 son and do my grocery shopping for the week so I will be up and out early tomorrow.
Last night I attended a Holiday slash “Obama Victory Party” hosted by a member of a OFA team who touts themselves as the ones who gave a Pennsylvania victory to the President. The hostess has a beautiful home that was fully decorated with the sights and sounds of the holidays. The dining room table was festively set with delicious foods and sweets and Poinsettias filled each room. It was a wonderful mix of guests and for a few hours we bonded, sharing stories, laughs and genuinely enjoying each other’s company. It was a lovely way to start off the holiday weekend and for that I say, thank you Delores!”
Heading out for the night
I hope you guys have a wonderful night – Smooches!

Do you need shoes for a holiday event or a pair of boots for a particular outfit and don’t want to break the bank? Rugged Wearhouse is a great place to find both shoes and boots for under $20.00, here are just a few that caught my eye:

The best day of the work week!
One of my Friday night rituals is to stop at Pockets Discount Liquors in New Castle for a bottle of Barefoot Sweet Red wine. This evening was no exception, however, tonight they were hosting a taste testing. Shannon Heinz, proprietor of Schnizzie Vodka was providing samples of her newly released Sparkling Vodka Cocktail. Schnizzie is an all natural, sparkling cocktail made with premium vodka infused with real strawberries, distilled from sugar cane and sweetened with light agave nectar. It is gluten free and made in New York, my sample was poured over ice but can be consumed chilled without ice.
Schnizzie is the first Sparkling Vodka Cocktail on the market but the quality can be compared to Ciroc or Van Gogh Vodka. Shannon has had several taste testings throughout the state and more information can be found on her Facebook page, www.Facebook.com/schnizzie. Packaged in a cellophane bag makes it a perfect holiday gift or in my case a great drink while decorating the house.
Goodnight and remember to always drink responsibly.
