Tomorrow Night is the Big Night!!

I am so excited (and nervous, but mainly excited)!!!!  Tomorrow night is my launch trunk show for Stella & Dot.  I have a few errands to run tomorrow morning after karate and then it's time..

For me, to do something like this is a big step...I am not normally a proponent of the Direct Sales arena nor am I one to be "pushy".  Luckily I don't have to worry about that with Stella & Dot...I am going to let the jewelry sell itself!  When asked to describe the products, I say it is definitely not your grandma's jewelry (although I do love vintage :).  It's a mix of modern meets trendy meets classic - depending on which line you are looking at. 

I love the little girls' line too...I want to get all of it for my niece but my sister might yell at me so I will pick a few pieces (and I am sure Mom will picka few pieces too)!


If you are reading this and cannot make the show tomorrow night, please check out my site and treat yourself to something nice...you deserve it.

I Thought I Was Eating Healthy...

I am a big magazine junkie...I love to read magazines and many people can attest to the dozens I read (at work hahahaha) along with my love for catalogs.  I read this article in Woman's Day and it really opened my eyes to rethink what I am purchasing in the supermarket!

I never know if organic is really the way to go, but here is a list of the "Dirty Dozen" - these fruits and vegetables are higher in pesticide residue than others. 
1. Apples
2. Bell Peppers
3. Blueberries
4. Celery
5. Cherries
6. Imported Grapes
7. Kale
8. Nectarines
9. Peaches
10. Potatoes
11. Spinach
12. Strawberries

Interesting, right?  ;)

I'm Full...

I am definitely full!  In the immediate moment, I am full from my over 1,000 calorie salad (yes, you read that right - salad).  It was delicious. 

I am full of excitement for the new opportunity I have to sell Stella & Dot's line of jewelry and have many fun and fabulous trunk shows and parties.  www.stelladot.com/sites/danapeller

I am (not as much as last week) full of sadness for our loss of Harley.  I still have his food and litter that I will donate to a shelter this weekend.
