Moving Complete
The contents from our one-bedroom apartment is successfully transported to our three-bedroom apartment. YEAH! I also had a very long Halloween Show at Frank's Power Plant due to daylight savings time. I literally slept ALL of Sunday. No kidding. True story...
With that said, my husband and I are diligently working on going through everything and getting our work spaces together. One good thing from the move is now I have a better idea of what I will have for sale and there is a LOT of it. Aprons, bonnet hair dryers, dresses, hats, kitchen items, linens, knick knacks, etc... and all of it VINTAGE. Once I have my photo area ready to take pics of the items I will post to my blog first to let all of you have first dibs.
Talking about my loyal readers, I am at 53 followers now. That's only 22 more until I have my great big domestic goddess giveaway. As an added incentive, if you post about my blog between now and when I hit 75 followers, you'll get an extra entry into the giveaway! All you have to do is make a comment in this post with the link and voila! Extra entry for you!

Rockabilly Radio
Hey there Ducks and Dolls! Forgot your ipod? There is a streaming site of just Rockabilly music called Rockabilly Radio. I've been listening to it a lot lately while I have been packing for my move.

Find Your Man
Joe Bonomo was one of the world's strongest men and grew up with Turkish Candy wizzes as parents, yet he wrote a string of Beauty and Charm booklets in the 50s. While I would take much of his advice with a grain of salt I still love finding tidbits from his books online. They have great pictures and show a side of rockabilly lifestyle that is just nifty!

One of my favorites is the booklet entitled "How to Find Your Man." The very cool blog Beauty is a thing of the past has some scans from it and it is a good read.
