Giving Thanks

Now that Halloween is nearly upon us, it is time to think of Thanksgiving. Why is it I wonder, we cannot enjoy the here and now? I guess it is human nature to think of the future (hopefully we have one!). All that being said, I am preparing for turkey day, planning the menu, people to invite, time of the festivities, etc. I'm also big on decorating for the holidays. It sets the stage and really gets me into the celebration. Here are a couple ideas I came up with for Thanksgiving. (Halloween is much easier!)

To purchase these and other decorations visit gpurse.com or email me, green.purse79@yahoo.com. I can also send you directions and patterns to make your own. I'd love to hear from you with your ideas!

A shout out to http://www.preownedweddingdresses.com, what a great "green" idea!

Hall of Fame

This week I'd like to talk about another new found friend, the women at WE magazine. I entered a cover story competition a few months ago and was informed that I did not make it into the top fifteen but did make it into the Hall of Fame as an honoree (so did all the entrants). Nonetheless, I was happy they did it. Here is the link to the magazine if you choose to take a look at what they offer and follow the contest. Some very amazing women! http://wemagazineforwomen.com. Happy, happy week!

Billboard

Just returning from a little golf vacation north and made an attempt to see our billboard on Hwy 41 North near the Oneida St. exit. No such luck! It is electronic and changes I think every 7 seconds or so.

Anyone seeing our billboard and placing an order this month will get 50% off their purchase. Expires October 31, 2009. Thanks to Celebrate Green's Green Halloween for post on your blog!
