Sunday Singin' Sensation: PATTI LABELLE!!!

Dear Readers:

Give God some PRAISE today! Enuf about the leaf.

I am BACK w/SSS! I was running out of folks to consider, until I heard Luther's voice yesterday on Mr. A.'s truck radio. I said, "Bingo! Tomorrow's SSS is none other than Patti LaBelle!!!" Who cannot help but love Patti? The woman can SANG and COOK. Her hits - "Voulez-Vous Couchez Avec Moi, Ce Soir;" "I'm On My Own;" "If Only You Knew," and her rendition of "Somewhere, Over the Rainbow," are just CLASSIC!!!!!

If you don't know who Patti is, you seriously need the LORD.


I am on a black/white or black/white/red rooster kick with my kitchen. I picked up these lovely ceramic roosters yesterday. I wanted to purchase the entire collection, but even with 50% off, these things are still pricey. Why the roosters? I got the idea from when my sign was created. My aim is to now find cannisters, etc. . . to match. If you know of a store that sells any of these items, please let me know! I got these from Hobby Lobby.





The kitchen needed some "color" aside from white; light oak; and stainless steel.

Thanks for the comments RE: the Jheri Curl. I had folks cracking up on the phone about that post. Mr. A. read it and said that I was CRAZY. We were in hysterics @ lunch yesterday. I took him waaaay back.

Love y'all!

GREAT FIND!

Folks:

You know that this house has become somewhat of my home. Mom has said to me, "Aren't these people damn tired of reading about your house?"

Whatever. People talk about their children and spouse; if I had one of each, I would as well. I just talk about the Lord; my profession; my friends and family; and my residence. I am extremely excited about my first home. I am not coveting it; I just want to celebrate what God has blessed me with.

Kill me.


You remember my dining room set:


Check out the new addition:

This is a lousy picture, but I had way too much sunlight still trying to poke its way through the blinds. The bike is the same color as my dining room chairs/table. I am going to jazz it up with an old doll and some greenery.

GREAT BUY! Mom, I know that you want this bike. ;)
