Any Wives going on a weekend trip for Labor day? We’ll I’ve got the perfect overnight bag for you! I’ve been a huge fan of these Billy kirk bags for while…. They are the perfect size for a few night away from home. And what’s perfect is they’re actually made to be used by men, so your husband will get equal use out of it as will you! Which makes it all the more convincing when you ask him to buy you one! Hehe!
Great Idea: This Bag would also make a Great Diaper Bag for Dad!
Number 165 Day Travel Bag, $320.00
Number 164 Steamer Bag, $295.00

This by far has to be one of my favorite movies of summer! Not only is it inspiring in the sense that you should always stay true to yourself, but makes you want to go home and start cooking instantly! I fell in Love with Meryl Strep as Julia Child… She was absolutely Delightful!

The Second I got out of the Film “Julie and Julia” I Instantly wanted to buy her book about her time spent living and cooking in Paris. Unfortunatly when I went to Barnes and Nobles, the book I was searching for had the terrible images from the movie on the cover. Why do Publishing companies find it nessescary to butcher the cover of a classic book by putting actors of the movie on the cover. No I do not want to see Meryl Strep on the Cover of Julia Childs book…. I want to see Julia Childs on the cover of her book. Enter Amazon.com… I found a hardcover copy from 2006 with the orginal cover art. ( like shown above ) I got it in the mail yesterday and I’m as happy as a clam!
Available at Amazon.com for 16.95

A good wife writes thoughtful handwritten Thank you notes for gifts recieved and other kind acts of generosity. Orginally thank you notes for hospitality or attending dinner in a friends home used to be reffered to as ‘Bread and Butter’ Letters. The writer is thanking his or her hosts for their hospitality (and food), but the letter is also a basic social formality, not likely to contain any exciting content. A “bread and butter” note may not be eagerly awaited, but it’s the sort of thing expected and probably noticed most in its absence.
Occasions when a Thank You Card Should be sent.
- Thank you for anyone who’s treated you to a meal out… Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner or Cocktails
