JUST SO Y'ALL KNOW!

Yes ma'am y'all...IT'S MY RULES!!! Love this sign and of course it's perfect for my kitchen at "The Roost!"
I found this cute little sign on one of my new favorite blogs...The Classic Preppy. You might recognize her logo of the cute pink turtle from Blogland, Twitter, or Facebook... She's an eighth generation Southerner y'all! She's also a former Account Executive and Etiquette Instructor for Tiffany & Co. Goodness gracious--now that's one high-fallutin' title! Her blog is about all things preppy and refined. Be sure to check it out!

The Classic Preppy's logo...

Recently, The Classic Preppy featured some shops she had visited in Farmville, Virginia and this one caught my eye...The Sleeping Bee.
Classic Preppy even mentioned that "Miss Janice would like this store."

When is saw this photo from the store...I couldn't pick up my iPhone fast enough to call and try to get one.

Now it's on the wall of the entry to my kitchen...just so everyone knows the rules!!!
Mlle Coco Chanel says "Hey Y'all!"

A few more words...

~Before I close today, I want to say thanks to all of you who supported me during my 16-hour walk at the Relay for Life over the weekend! Thank you for your e-mails, your tweets, your comments on Facebook, your contributions, and your prayers! It was my pleasure to complete the entire event for my friend Jan Taylor, who is battling liver cancer. Today, I am attempting to answer all my e-mails and reply to comments left on my blog over the past week. I am waaaaay behind, but I promise to catch up and visit with all of you.

~Also, if you are a new follower of my blog, I say "welcome" and promise to visit your blog very soon!

~I have a giveaway coming up I believe this Sunday, so be sure to check back to enter:)

Have a wonderful week y'all!

I NEED YOUR SUPPORT!

I would like to introduce to you my long-time friend Jan Taylor. Jan and her husband Mark have both been friends of my husband and myself for over 26 years. Great friends...great times together!

Jan was recently diagnosed with Liver Cancer and needs your prayers!!! This post will go out to my 500+ blog readers, 300+ Facebook friends, and 300+ Tweetin' contacts. I'm hoping that all y'all will remember my friend Jan in your prayers, also her Doctors, and her family.

This is Mark and Jan at my wedding 25 years ago, about the time I first met Jan.

In honor of Jan, I am taking part in the American Cancer Society Relay for Life in Port Saint Lucie, Florida on April 30th. Because cancer never sleeps, Relays are overnight events and are 18 hours in length. With God's help, I will be walking in this event starting at 6pm on Friday the 30th of April and hoping to last the entire 18 hours!!! This is the very least that I can do for my friend to support her! During the event, I will be praying very hard for my friend and also would love to pray for your family member, friend, co-worker, neighbor, or anyone you know who is battling cancer. If you provide me the name in a comment or e-mail me, I will certainly place that person's name of my list. 18 hours...Me....God....The Pavement--lot's of time to pray:)!!!

Each of us has our own reasons for caring about the fight against cancer...whatever your reasons, I hope that you will chooose to make a difference by making a donation online to support my efforts.
