    You have my heartAnd we’ll never be worlds apartMaybe in magazinesBut you’ll still be my star Baby cause in the darkYou can’t see shiny carsAnd that’s when you need me thereWith you I’ll always shareBecause When the sun shines, we’ll shine togetherTold you I’ll be here foreverSaid I’ll always be a friendTook an oath, I’m a stick it out till the end Now that it’s raining more than everKnow that we’ll still have each otherYou can stand under my umbrellaYou can stand under my umbrella (Ella ella, eh eh eh)Under my umbrella(Ella ella, eh eh eh)Under my umbrella(Ella ella, eh eh eh)Under my umbrella(Ella ella, eh eh eh, eh eh…

    Hi Ho Cherry Hey-Ohhhhh!

    August 2, 2009

    My sister Julesie came over last night, and boy did we have food and drink plans. We like to try new recipes when we get together, and this instance was no different. We had our normal phone conference, during which we talked about a few options and made our decision (I’ll tell you about that in a moment). Then she said to me, “How do you feel about Bing Cherry Mojitos?” Of course I replied, “I feel GREAT about them!” Then she started sending out tweets to make everyone jealous, like this one, which you definitely shouldn’t click on if you have problems with the F-word. Of course, like many…

    It Only Took Twenty-Eight Years…

    June 7, 2009

    On Friday, I did myself proud. As many of you know, I write feature articles for a nail salon industry magazine. Every July, my fabulous editor asks her writers to propose ideas for the following year. Last year as a part of my 2009 article proposal, I came up with the idea of interviewing the host of one of my favorite business makeover shows in conjunction with an article about salon makeovers. (Click here to hear his glorious British accent and see what his personality, full of infectious excitement, is like. He’s awesome!) I let my editor know that I would do my best to locate his PR people and…

    Help My Seestor Help Another Seestor

    April 24, 2009

    Please, please, please. Do me a favor. My sister is trying to help raise money for two sisters (and great friends!) of one of her BFFs (her college roommate Emily). They both have MS. I could type up a big post about it but frankly, my sister’s post explains it beautifully and I would just really appreciate it if you would go to her blog and check it out. Long story short: **Go to my sister’s blog. **Read about Nancy and Amy. **Donate to “SeestorAmy”‘s MS Walk Team by clicking on the handy dandy link (or this one). **Donate $10: my own Seestor will send you one of her scrumptiously…

    Go Big or Go Home

    April 22, 2009

    I don’t do anything small. It’s a personality trait, I guess. My sister’s got it bad, too. Our mom started it, I guess. And, I would imagine, our grandmother was just as “bad”. Individually we are pretty creative, but add one or two more of us and the combination is lethal. Give us a simple task and our brains start to spin with ideas on how to make it better, stronger, faster, more impressive, and shortly after that, we RUN with it. Remember our “Amazing Race” premiere party? That’s just one example. I have been called “Martha” more than once (way more) in my life. I don’t know how to…
