Loved Ellen



Me and my bff Diana waiting in line for Ellen.
Here I'm again this is in front of Warner Bros. Studio's
This is our Cute Waiter Michael, At Morton's Steak House
and that lobster is alive! We all went to dinner after the show.


And If you can believe it we ran into 3 other friends who just happened to be at the Ellen taping! Wow, it is a small world. Notice the pictures on the back wall with all the celebrity's.
SURPRISE IT'S ELLEN BIRTHDAY SHOW! So you know what that means!  Cool Gifts!!!  Ellen was celebrating her 51st B-day (which is Monday) So the Audience took home this cool I Home player alarm clock, a $200.00 Gift Card at Zappo Shoes, and a Flip Video Camera I don't know if you can tell but the video camera is a special blue with Ellen across the bottom!
We were all so excited, and they give you the gifts as you are leaving (I always wondered about that)  So the show is on this Monday the 26th, I'm not sure you will see me I wore Bright Green so I would stand out.  We were sitting all the way in the back upper left! I'm going to make you watch to see who was on the show!!!

ELLEN

Ellen!!!  Yes, I'm going to the taping of The Ellen Show!
Who Will We See???

I'm so excited, I won't be able to sleep tonight.  My Girlfriend was able to snag a couple of tickets for  the taping of  Ellen's show for Thursday.  Ellen tapes 2 shows, and you have to get in line early to get vouchers.  The taping is at Universal Studios so there is lots to do!!!  Wish me luck that we get in....  I better practice my Dance Moves.....

P.S. I will let you all know when it airs... Oh, and I'm told by my bff we need to sit on the right hand side, cause Ellen always dance thru that side....  :)

Chalk boards

I do love Chalk Boards, this works great in a kitchenA Calendar in the Office, notice the pencil holder! Love this, who would a thunk it? Is this Fabulous or What How about some Chalk Art Work  Love this redo Recycle Box, for now  Paint the glass panels with chalk board paint, Love This too!Everybody can use one of these Love these Crates...Love these tags on the Baskets This is our newest Chalk Board! I found this at the cutest Flea Market type store, I didn't need another Chalk Board as I have one in the kitchen, But the Sales Girls said it was 1/2 off! So there you go, it's an old cabinet door I have hung it side way  ( It was painted yellow and have left it for now).  The coat/key rack is from Pier One and it has vintage type door knobs with hooks below, it hangs next garage door entry. So I told the Mister now you can leave me a note if your gone when I get home! That was my excuse for buying the Chalk Board, and look he did! How Cute is that.....

The Colorful Doors of Greece

Come with me as we travel thru the streets of Greece
I love these bougainvillea's cascading over the door 

I love this weather chipped door


Look at the beautiful details

I wonder how old these doors are

check out the locks

love the bright colored doors against the white buildings



I hope you have enjoyed visiting the doors of Greece as much as I have, this will have to do until I can see them in person. Oh, and I have no idea when that will be!
