Tuesday, July 04, 2006. 30's Flare for the 21st Century. I really love this blouse from HotPatterns (it's the Miss Moneypenny Pussycat Blouse) - it has just the right amount of soft, feminie style without being really gooey. I finshed it up today, and it's part of a Fall 2006 wardrobe. This is an idea I learned from Diva Georgene, and it's a great way to really maximise your sewing effforts. So far I've completed the long black skirt. Posted by Phyllis @ 5:36 PM. Links to this post. A Dress A Day.

Wednesday, November 15, 2006. Why I Luv "Dancing With The Stars". First off - Emmitt had a MUCH better posse - Roger Staubach, Troy Aikman - and who did Mario have? George Lopez. His Mom. Need I say more? And Emmit, to his credit, won this thing because he used his NFL training to full advantage - not only did he win the World's Ugliest Trophy, but now he gets to call up Jerry Rice tomorrow morning and say "Pay UP, Brother! I didn't think it was possible to for any trophy to be uglier than the Stanley Cup.
