I’ve Been Made!!


‘Yo. You talkin’ to me… missies’?

Because if you are, I’d like to thank Preppy 101 of All Things Southern and Preppy and Sweet Southern Prep for the fun Preppy Mafia tag that originated on Beth Dunn’s blog, Social Climbers. I feel honored to receive this tag from my southern belle friends!
How fun!

Here are my answers to the official questions:

1. Who is your style icon? Princess Grace and my Audrey look-alike friend, Suzi.
2. What is your favorite socialite lit book? It’s currently a Dolley Madison Biography. America’s premier socialite.
3. Favorite party theme? Exotic Island Fantasy. Drinks with pink umbrellas, tiki decorations, appropriate Tommy Bahama island attire, silly games and island music.
4. Go to Halloween costume? Embarrassed to say but with Mr. PM’s cow costume, I am his Jersey Maid girl complete with blond braids and milk bottle prop. It’s a best costume winner, believe it or not. What can I say? It moooves me!
5. Extravagance you cannot live without? Sparkly cuff bracelets, lip gloss and music wherever I go.
6. Living person you admire? My MIL. At 87, she is constantly learning, is more techno savvy than I and values her independence. She is incredible.
7. Greatest Fear? I cannot say. I believe in not putting that out into the universe, either verbally or in written form.
8. Trait you deplore in yourself? Worrying, fretting, not trusting in the universal plan.
9. Which talent would you most like to have? It’s a tie ~ singing, playing the piano and the ability to draw.
10. Greatest Achievement? Raising two wonderful boys to manhood who are considerate, honest, caring and conscientious gentlemen who are well-mannered. They will always open a door for a lady and hold the door for others. I am hoping they remember to take the position of walking closest to the street when accompanying said ladies on a sidewalk stroll. 🙂


I tag:

The Posh Mommas
Lily Lemontree
Powderpuffs n Pearls
The Life of A Suburban Princess
North of 25A

Spread the love of the classic style and post your answers and tag others.
The more the preppier… “…one turned up collar at a time”. 🙂

The Fabulous Sugar Doll Blogger Award!

I am always appreciative that someone would think enough of me and my blog to pass along a special recognition so I’d like to thank LPC at her Privilege blog for tagging me with this award.  Apparently, I should also thank Sugar Daddy Ken for bringing us together.  I have recently become acquainted with this intelligent woman’s writings who is a fellow empty nester and who surprisingly is on the same time zone as I.  For a slice of the… [Read More]

10 Things “No One Knows About Me” Tag

I was tagged by Pink In A Sea Of Blue to list 10 things about me that people might not know. ‘Pink’ was also the winner of my give-away last week. We both have a son with the same name. I bet you didn’t know that! 🙂1. I do not get my nails ‘done’. I’m a hands on kinda gal and I’m too active to keep a manicure looking nice and I don’t like to commit to weekly appointments for… [Read More]

“Tagged! …… I’m it!”

Tres Tray Chic tagged me for a bag expose’.Thank you! At first I thought, “How exciting! My first tag!”Then I kind of panicked. I emailed my friend and said to her,“What if it’s like taking a peek inside a lingerie drawer expecting to find all Victoria’s Secrets and instead you find the white granny panties with the elastic thread hanging and holes from where you use your thumbs to pull them up.” Do not ask how I know this. Vineyard… [Read More]
