I had to see it to believe it!

Lovely

I would love one of these Redi Set Go all-purpose kitchen machines, that cooks 2 meals at once. And I just love Cathy Mitchell, have for years and years... I wish she was my Mom.

Ask and Ye Will Receive (well, maybe)

If you follow me on Twitter, you know I had this brilliant idea inspired by those little tree-shaped pieces of cardboard that dangle from the car mirror, you know the kind... they smell like stuff.

Well, I saw they have a pleasing purple-colored tree that smells like Mulberry Fig, a real and true combo. When I saw that, I got to thinking of those great fig bars you can get at better Dollar Stores near you, and an idea was born. I did a little homework and wrote the company - Daddy Ray's - a letter. The guy in charge is named Dave, and here is my letter to him:

Dear Dave,

My name is Ramona and I had a question for all y'all. I am a huge fan of the Daddy Ray snack foods, specifically the fig cookies. Not only do I appreciate the fact that they are made with real fruit, but I enjoy it a lot that each package has 1 and a half pounds of cookies inside. This makes it a very good value.

My question is, do you have any plans to introduce a Mulberry Fig cookie? I know this is a popular flavor in the scented tree air fresheners, and I thought it would be a super great idea for a cookie. Most people would take this idea to Nabisco, but I don't buy those cookies, so I thought I would inquire here first.

Thanks for your time and for your company's commitment to such a grand product. Give my regards to Daddy Ray, if you can.

Yours truly,
Ramona

Well, very quickly, I received this personal reply, from Dave himself!

Dear Ramona, thank you for taking the time to write us here at Daddy Ray's. We always appreciate receiving comments from our consumers, especially those of a positive nature. In regards to your question, currently we do not have plans to create another flavor in our line-up of products. I will pass your e-mail on to our R&D people to have them look in to the additional flavor of Mulberry.

Once again, thank you for taking the time to write us. Should you have any additional comments, please feel free to e-mail us again.

Sincerely,
David [Last Name deleted]
Daddy Ray's Director of Sales

So, if some day you are shopping at your neigborhood area Dollar Store and you see a package of Mulberry Fig cookies, you just remember who started the movement to get them in the first place!

Joyce Drake: The True Hollywood Story

Joyce is coming again!

I just heard a juicy rumor that music superstar Joyce Drake is going to be the subject of a wildly hot tell-all unauthorized biography of her roller coaster life, as well as what can only be called her red-hot stint in the music business.

We all remember Joyce's biggest hit, "I Get All Excited," the tune that was so good, they only gave us 48 seconds of it. Yet we were still hooked on the Joyce phenomenon!

My secret spywitness has told me one of the hottest stories from the book is how diva Joyce, high on her own explosive success, canned the other 4 members of "The Singing Drakes" quintet, so obsessed was she about being a solo superstar. Who could blame her. The other four jilted members were so understandably upset about all of this, they have shared many a tawdry tale about Joyce for the book. I am so looking forward to the tell-all, I "got all excited."

As part of the all-out promotional blitz for the Joyce tell-all,
the other four members of the would-be group have hit the publicity trail.
This photo just turned up on AwkwardFamilyPhotos today. Talk about a scoop!

Betty Butterfield: LIVE!

How fabulous is this?? I can hardly wait! I just hope it's released on VHS, too.

Hot

It's going to be hot again today. I don't know how I'm going to stand it. What do all y'all do when the heat gets hot? I need some suggestions. I can't go to the mall to wallow in the a/c, since they kicked me out and told me not to come back.

It's going to be a big one...
