Can you say Fabulous, Fresh & Fruity 3 xs Fast?

I guess getting to blog every day or week, isn't happening exactly. I have to admit I'd rather be dancing and that's not happening anymore - so when I'm not filling orders, socializing on Facebook, tweeting on Twitter or spending time with my daughter and family I'm doing dreaded house cleaning and other fun chores. eeeek!

Although the title of this post sounds like it could be a rave review of a drag show, its' nothing quite so entertaining, just some of my thoughts and scribbles to tell you about. It doesn't feel like I have anything clever to express at this moment and "this moment" is about all I have to fit in a blog post, so I'm going for the quick post and leaving wit to the wind. I really do try to eat healthy, of course I rarely succeed. I do honestly love my veggies but not so much fruit. As a special
message for kids and moms, I am instituting the "do as I say not as I (don't) do" rule of thumb. Check out some of our new designs, there are five designs i all and they are fabulously, "fresh & fruity and fun too! Who doesn't have a sweet peach in their brood?!

We have a bunch more designs that are being worked on for Twins, Halloween and Dog lovers and more. Sort of all over the place, but it's that artist thing, everyone discusses out loud that I can't quite control. So please stay with me, have a little patience and for goodness sake, if you actually found me and are reading this gibberish - write to me already! Oh and by the way, I was totally stoked (even though I don't live on the West coast) and so I have to tell ya - the "real" Nia Vardalos DM'd my sister on Twitter - ha! "Ha" like in can you believe it and I swear it's true! More another time...

We're missing an Angel & Our King of Pop =(

King of Pop & Angel - Gone

There is no way I can't NOT post something about two legends passing, it's major news and certainly worthy of a few words of tribute for these respected entertainers. When I first heard the news that MJ was rushed to the hospital my daughter asked Mommy is he going to die? I was thinking no way and told her oh no honey I sure hope not, then the shocking, sad news flashed "The "King of Pop"- icon legend, 50 yr old Michael Jackson was dead of cardiac arrest". After all on this same day, we just learned that Farrah Fawcett the 1970's icon, lost her courageous battle with cancer - she was my favorite Angel and had the best hair ever, she was beautiful!

After watching a story about Farrah Fawcett on abc's 20/20, it was very sad to watch and hear about her struggle with cancer since 2006, from her longtime romantic partner Ryan O'Neal and Jaclyn Smith, Fellow 'Charlie's Angel. In fact, I learned much more about her then I ever knew, she was very bright and an extremely talented actress and sculptor. There was a documentary that chronicles Fawcett’s fight against cancer called Farrah's Story, which was an uplifting, painful and inspiring - even though I am only half way thru it. May she rest in peace and Ryan find his way without his angel as well as her son.

When a celebrity as big as Michael Jackson dies, the world stands still for a moment. Afterall, this man changed the music world, just as the legendary, Elvis before him had done. He had eccentricities that seemed outside the box from where the world watched, like many that have passed though time and left their incredible marks in history. His "Thriller" album, "Billy Jean" and Bad, they were works of genius in dance and music. His signature style of "moonwalking" the sequined white glove, black loafers, white ankle socks and finally the black fedora made the pop singer an '80s fashion icon. May his soul and spirit rest in peace - we will never forget what he did for music and dance!! I being a huge lover of dance and music, will certainly miss what he would've brought to us if he were able to remain on this earth longer - I had always wished I had a chance to witness his greatness in concert - Janet was the closest I got.

So a few days after our iconic losses, I think back to my own personal losses of those I loved and the battles still to be fought and I've walked away with a new idea and that is to "change" and "get brave"!
