Breakfast 4 Dinner

As many of you know, in my 'free time' I run a non-profit organization called POUR.  We create opportunities for people to POUR back into their local communities.  After all, charity begins at home, right?


Well tonight, we are preparing dinner for children who have been victims of or witnessed domestic violence. Project Safe has a great program called SuperHeroes and tonight is their graduation, they have asked for 'Breakfast 4 Dinner'.


You can help support these kids and their moms in one of two ways....


  1. You can visit us online at POUR, Inc. and make a donation so we can continue to help in these projects....
  2. and/or visit my online store above and click on fund-raising, then empowerment.  Any products you purchase there will support our efforts in the arena of fighting domestic violence.  Our SPEAK OUT campaign receives the proceeds from these sales - Avon representatives do not earn on these products, but donate 100% of it to the cause.


So.... Thanks for listening... and tonight for dinner... think Breakfast! 


Remember the kids who are the real SuperHeroes when they get the counseling they need to conquer their fears and move on in life!

You make a living by what you get
you make a life by what you give.
Winston Churchill


Isn't it great when living & giving collide?

Polarizing Performance?

What do YOU think?  Watch the VIDEO and comment below.

Personally, I enjoyed the 'cleaned up' version of the song, and thought the story they told, including unclosed doors on the stage, was amazing.  Listen to the lyrics and see how they hit every mark along the way.

Did they Jive.... Oh YES, I think they did.

And let's not forget the MOST important ingredient of all.. their make up was divine!

If you shoot at mimes...
should you use a silencer?

What Not To Wear...


By Artesia Peluso of PINK

Every professional woman has had her moment of fashion shame. Maybe a persuasive sales clerk convinced you to buy that suit you never wore or you were mesmerized by a fashion fad that you were sure you could pull off.

With wardrobe mistakes, a sideways look from a coworker or a glimpse in the office bathroom mirror usually helps you realize something’s wrong. (Or worse: no one says anything and you don’t notice until after-hours.)

Need help differentiating between wardrobe no-no’s and trends that are a go?

 "For professional women, it's important not to take trends too literally,” designer Hilton Hollis tells PINK. For example: you can get plenty of mileage out of a great black shift dress, but if it’s too low-cut or short, better save it for after-hours. Other trends to steer clear of at work are the thigh-high boot, sheer anything and distracting jewelry.

Attire guidelines are pretty easy to follow for corporate jobs, but the “business casual” gray area can be harder to navigate. Experts agree that dressing for the job you want can prevent wardrobe gaffs – which means steering clear of sky-high stilettos, distressed jeans and too-bright colors.

"As soon as a fashion is universal, it is out of date.”Marie Von Ebner-Eschenbach
