This Has Been A True Blessing

This entire week has truly been a blessing. The opportunity to launch this new site with old and new friends and celebrate my birthday was so much fun. Most of all, the opportunity to raise money for Breast Cancer research was the best gift I could have ever received. Thank you all so much for lending a hand to make this the best year yet. Plans are already underway for next year’s event so do stay tuned for information.

With this being our last night I thought I’d pull out all the stops and throw down with a down-home, lip smakin’, finger lickin’, grease all over your face meal. But remember, just because we’re rolling up our sleeves doesn’t mean you can come raggedy. LOL

This is a black and white affair with a splash of purple. So throw on your favorite black jeans, dress it up the way only you can and come on out to help me take this party out with a memory that will last until next year.

It has been unseasonably warm so we’re eating under the stars tonight. Pick a flower from the vase, mingle and enjoy the music (click on the link in the upper right corner of this blog) and join in the fun while I get the food set up.  By the way, be the first one to solve this riddle and I have a gift for you.

RIDDLE: How can you spell too much with two letters?
