Thank you so much! I was just trying to work out what I was going to post on my blog. This is great, and greatly appreciated. Happy New Year to you!
Lani –
I thought it was lucky cooked cabbage:) I guess it’s different in the south.
These are some great quotes worth to draw out the creative juices! Now to the writing board – it’s been awhile……
I love those quotes. I love quotes in general as there is so much wisdom in them as they are passed along from generation to generation.
Oh I love my black-eyed peas too. People up here think I am nuts but I am passing it along to my children.
Happy New Year !!
Perfect way to close out the year, or start the new one. We Realtors may have to add one from Winston Churchill, I especially like his famous quote that describes the fight of the empire, and finishes “We will never surrender.” Onward To 2009.
“A New Year’s resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other.”
That one got me. Blackeyed Peas for luck and Turnip Greens for money Paula. It’s a southern thang.
