These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

-
Some of the women from our church
got together for a FAVORITE THINGS
party.  Julie Andrews serenaded us.   
We ate our favorite cookies.
String--anyone remember the connection?
From decorative tape
to favorite lipsticks.
What would a party be without a
children's book?
Here's the string connection.
We took notes on favorite things
we thought we couldn't live without.
More favorite things.
The always favorite Koji Punch.
Why a goose?
Now you know why.
Some of the precious women who attended.
More friends.
and more favorite people
The party was Kelly's idea so she explained the
process of sharing our favorite things.
Is anyone surprised?
She is so creative.
More guests
It was so interesting hearing
about everyone's favorite things.
From ice cream to pens to coffee to
lotions to Funyons to jewelry to
omelette makers to lots and lots
of chocolate.

Everyone took home 2
items that they thought
they couldn't live without.
It was fun seeing who chose what
favorite things.

But alas, there were no
raindrops on roses or
whiskers on kittens.

Oh, well, maybe next time.

A big thank you to
photographers Kelly
and Vanessa.

It was so much fun hearing about everyone's favorites and why. I can't wait to eat my caramel apple
:-) I didn't think I was hungry for cookies so passed but those sand tarts sure look yummy! Thanks to you and Kelly for a fun time!

Love this idea! Kelly should write a party book, just like Pippa Middleton.

New Walking Shoes

-

I have loved the Dansko shoes that I wear when it is cool. But I needed some comfortable walking shoes and amazingly Dansko now makes  "tennis shoes". They are so comfortable, although a little wild.  Probably should have gone with a more neutral pair, but these are fun. And to all the fashion police out there, no, one pant leg is not longer than the other.  It is just the angle of the camera. Sheesh!!!!!

Laundry Dilemma

OK, all of my friends in Blogland, I have a problem and those closest to me are getting tired of me showing them my laundry dilemma and of me trying to get them to help me figure it out so I am sharing my problem with you in hopes that some BRILLIANT person can help me. Several, and I mean several of my shirts are getting holes in them. I hope you can see from the pictures below--I have put a red cloth behind the holes in hopes that they would show up better. They start out with tiny little pinprick holes and then they "grow". They are always right about waist level. I have been working on this puzzle for a several weeks because I don't want to have to replace all my clothing every few weeks (although there is a Stein Mart in Colorado Springs.) See the solutions that have been ruled out. not one of my bracelets puncturing the cloth no, I'm not wearing a belt that is puncturing the cloth it does not seem to be something that I am leaning up against the seatbelt ...

Skippyjon Jones and Kohl's

I'm not sure if I should thank my friend Mindy for letting me know that Kohl's is featuring Skippyjon Jones items in their stores, or whether I should send her the bill for the items I purchased. I actually restrained myself (although all items purchased are not displayed in the picture.) There are many more Skippy Jon Jones items at your local Kohl's. Let me just give Kohl's  and their Kohl's Cares program a shout out. I am so impressed with their commitment to local charities benefitting children. All the items above were $5.00 each with the total proceeds going to charity. "Kohl's Cares thanks you for over a decade of dedication and hundreds of millions of dollars raised.  100% of the net profit from the sale of this item will be donated to support kids' health and education initiatives in communities nationwide. Since 2000, more than $180 million has been raised through our Kohl's Cares cause merchandize program." For more information, vi...
