Waltzed the Floors for Sunshine Today

Yes, this is what I worked for today!

I left work just in time to head home and change and with enough tips from serving for the day to purchase myself this lovely sunshine-fork choker!

Yes, I said fork. This lovely is a bent fork with mini jewels added and in this case it is pure sweet sunshine!

Perfect for a waitress with Sunshine as her nickname ... don't you agree?

Designed by a local gal here in Carrabelle, Florida: Ms Howard/Mini-Jewels. She was set up at the CARRABELLE RIVERFRONT FESTIVAL that is going on here in town today and tomorrow.

As it happens, she was in the Hog Wild BAR-B-Q restaurant last week. While taking her order I commented on her unusual and beautiful choker. (Different than mine.) She let me know she would be at the Festival so I was delighted to get off work early enough today to pay her a visit and pick up some sunshine!

Plastic-Free Sipping Straws for Me

Yes! I have pledged to stop using plastic drinking straws!

In an effort to do my part to save Earth from waste, I have now purchased a delightfully decorative and eco-friendly glass straw for home and for carrying with me everywhere, every day!

See me using my new glass drinking straw and to learn more about the pledge I have taken, read all about it on my recent article about plastic-free glass drinking straws.

 

 

What type of straw do you sip your beverages with these days?

Bloggers Call to Action

Yes! If you are a blogger this call to action is meant specifically for you! I want YOU to hear and to heed my plea in the battle against domestic violence and abuse.

Two days ago I published a giveaway blog post, and, as yet, not one person has risen to enter the Love Day Dance and Keychain Giveaway. I am disheartened!

I know many bloggers and authors who SAY they are advocates for the abused, for those who fall victim to violence. Now I point at you and ask that you ACT upon that advocacy. And, if you have not yet become a "point of light" for those who suffer the hands of domestic violence and abuse, NOW is your opportunity to do so.




Please read the details of the giveaway ASAP as it ends in less than 48 hours! Yes! This means you will need to drop everything and get your fingers dancing upon your blogging keyboard to publish and link up an article to aid in furthering abuse awareness.
