  • Another Simple Holiday Wish List!

    via email forwarded by Brandon (thanks, B!):


    Dear Santa: We’ve Been Good All Year

    While you are out doing your holiday shopping this year, please consider donating a gift to the dogs and cats at the Wake County Animal Center.

    This year, the animals are asking Santa for:
    –Pet shampoo and brushes
    –Cat litter
    –Puppy or kitten formula
    –Paper towels and bleach
    –Blankets and towels
    –Cat and dog toys (dishwasher-safe)
    –Monetary donations

    How could you say “No” to that? I can’t!

  • A Top 10 Southern List

    Roger Elmore, the main writer for HospitalityManagementSchools.com, dropped me a nice email to let me know about a Top 10 list his site had just posted that he thought I, as well as you readers, might enjoy.

    http://www.hospitalitymanagementschools.net/blog/2010/10-ways-to-know-youre-a-true-southerner/

    How many did you check off? Although I’m not a hunting fan and don’t find myself in church on an extremely regular basis, I’d say that the list, for the most part, fit the bill!

    And although I love my “not from the South, but I got here as fast as I could” friends, I had to laugh at the end of number 10: “Although you welcome them to visit, you wish they’d stop moving to the region.”

    Thanks for reading and for the email, Roger!

  • How to…

    Got this email today from E. Riley… SO appropriate!

    HOW TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BUGGING YOU ABOUT GETTING MARRIED

    Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, ‘You’re next.’ They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.


    Of course, I would never say that. But still… so appropriate 😉 I know Adrianne, Lisa S., and Blackeyed Susan share my sentiments and probably got a great laugh from this, too.
