I Simply Must Take This Time To Say Thank You!

As my list of must-read blogs get longer and longer, I'm finding it very difficult to read all the blogs I love. The thing is...I HAVE TO READ THEM! I'm afraid if I don't, I'll miss something spectacular from all y'all! Everyday it's just like having a fabulous magazine delivered to my office...with all your beautiful tablescapes, recipes, garden photos, gifting ideas, cute stationery, home decorating photos, tips for preppy shopping, Lilly love, entertaining, and travel...well, you can see how I get so excited!

I would like to take a moment from visiting y'all to say thank you to several ladies.

Recently, Sheila, at Notesongs, bestowed upon Miss Janice her "Bathroom Diva" award. Lord have mercy!


You may remember this photo of moi at the grand opening of the Lilly Store in the Gardens Mall. Debbie, the sweet girl at Lilly snapped this photo of me in the ladies room because my Lilly "Croc Monsieur" patterned skirt matched the wallpaper. Miss Shelia grabbed it and crowned me "Bathroom Diva."


Notesongs was one of the first blogs I ever read and Miss Sheila is such a "Sweetie." She has a beautiful home, which she loves to decorate and she also creates awesome tablescapes. I'm not sure which one of us has the most china, but we both definitely love to collect dishes! Stop by and visit Miss Sheila and check out her beautiful blog. Snap your own photo in the "Ladies Room" and send it off to Miss Sheila to become one of her "Bathroom Divas!" Thank you Miss Sheila!

Every Diva needs a tiara and Pink Martinis and Pearls was so sweet to send one to me...


Yes, Miss Janice has been crowned "Queen of All Things Awe-summm!!!" I am required to list seven things that make me so awesome....Well, if I simply must....

~I host awe-summm parties--you will have fun!
~I give good gifts--I think so, at least:)
~I deliver comfort food to sick and grief-stricken people.
~I teach children how to behave.
~I teach adults who are back-slidin' how to behave.
~I would be beyond excited, but very comfortable taking tea with "The Queen of England."
~I can still cross the finish line with a smile on my face after competing in 5k races...just love it!

I love the Pink Martini blogsite--what's not to love about her? She loves to entertain, she loves Lilly, and she loves martinis! It just cracked me up that she's a Martha Stewart Wannabe (excluding the time in the slammer). Thank you Pink Martini--you are "Queen of All Things Awe-summm yourself Missy!!"

Speaking of martinis...Muffy at Muffy Martini hosted a Lilly giveaway with Lilly party products provided by the Preppy Princess...Yay--I WON!!!! So, an otherwise boring day was Lilly'd up when I received this box full of goodies all wrapped up in pink and green!

Look at all this cute stuff...it's so cute! The plates, napkins, tumblers, coasters, beverage umbrellas, matches, and place cards--all in the "Coco Patch" pattern.
When I entered this giveaway, I stated that I would like to use all the cute products during a Children's Etiquette class, ages 4-8. I love to serve a light lunch to reinforce the dining skills I teach the children and how cute would all these products be? I would probably add some Lilly manila folders for their take-home sheets, along with a Lilly pencil and a customized "Miss Janice" placemat, totally Southern and Memorable...don't you think? Of course, for that class, I'll wear a coordinating Lilly Shift and my assistant (a puppet--Catherine the Mannerly Cat), will be wearing her pearls just like Miss Janice. Oh, I need to schedule a "Modern Manners for Children" class," it is one of my favorite programs to teach.

Thank you Muffy Martini--I love your blog and love following you on Twitter as well! You are actually the first Muffy I have every known!

Thank you to Susan at The Preppy Princess for providing the Lilly goodies! You are truly awe-summm and have been a great blogging friend! Y'all stop by Susan's blog and her preppy website, it's full of preppy goodness! Susan also hangs out over in Twitterville!

Thank you to all my readers--I appreciate all your sweet comments and e-mails. Now, I am off to create another blog post, then to visit all y'all's awe-summm blogs... then, it's time for THE FINALE OF AMERICAN IDOL!
