Another fun Bella Rustina weekend is finished and I'm still recuperating. It was an honor to have a visit from Tammy Pope, our Arkansas State Fair Sr. Queen. She is a super talented lady (she is a maker) and it has been fun to watch her win the title and follow...
If I ever decide to have Bella Rustina during the same week as taxes are due again, I need my head examined! I was so frazzled yesterday trying to finish up taxes that I both e-filed and mailed my federal taxes. The good news is I was done with it all by 3:30PM...
I hope you had a wonderful Easter! My family visited my brother's church in Pottsville to see my brother play a shofar. A shofar is made from a ram's horn. My brother plays many different instruments, but he had never played a shofar before. It produced the most...

One successful show down; One more to go! The Zonta Antique Show was a success and I enjoyed my time with the Zonta Club ladies. We had a great weekend and exhibitors packed out by 9:00PM Sunday! I was able to get home at a semi-decent hour so I could get enough sleep...
I'm writing from Longview, Texas. I'm here as the exhibitor director for the Zonta Antique Show that will take place this weekend inside the Maude Cobb Convention Center (I'll post preview photos on the Facebook page Thursday). The Zonta Antique Show is a fundraiser...
