Issue 10 - November 27, 2009
Hello Friends!
Some of you have been asking where I've been, because I haven't written
in awhile. Thank you so much for your concern. You all have been so
sweet to me!
No, I don't have the Swine Flu (although poor Sharee and two of her kids
battled it last month, but are completely better now - thank goodness).
I haven't thrown my back out again (Yeah!-the yoga, strength training
and stretching are paying off). And, I haven't forgotten about you, but
there has been a lot going on. Let me fill you in a bit...
First of all, congratulations to Donny for winning "Dancing with the
Stars!" Wasn't that amazing? Did we have any doubt that he could
do it? NO!!! My favorite moment after he and Kym won was when he picked
up Debbie and carried her out onto the ballroom floor to be with him
while he held the trophy. Wasn't that just the sweetest thing?
In honor of his win, I'm FEATURING our "Ballroom Dance Scrapbook Kits"
in Kandi's Korner this
week! (Also, check out our CLEARANCE section for your last chance to get
"Layton Scrapbook Kits" and "Autograph Books" from previous shows.)

My other great news is that Eric, Marc and I are having a wonderful time
in Branson, Missouri celebrating Thanksgiving and my birthday with Jay.
Yesterday, we went to McFarlan's Restaurant at the IMAX complex and
enjoyed a traditional Thanksgiving Feast with turkey, stuffing, mashed
potatoes, homemade cranberry sauce, yams, etc. Well, at least Eric and I
did. Marc had lasagna and Jay ordered the shrimp. How they can do that
on THANKSGIVING is beyond me, but to each his own. At least I didn't
have to cook this year. : ) We're having so much fun just being
together again. We all really miss Jason and are looking forward to his
return from his service in Nashville in April.
Several of you have been wondering when our Christmas items will be
available for purchase on Kandi's
Korner. The answer is...SOON! Kevin is updating our banner for
the season, and Sharee and I are working like crazy to get some new
items made. I'm afraid we "bit off a bit more than we can chew" at
The Quilted Bear in Provo. We rented TWO booths, side by side, and
it has proven to be a huge undertaking to try to keep it stocked. We
should have only rented one booth until we got the hang of it, I guess.
The market there is quite different than what we have experienced on
etsy and at Kirkpatricks. THREE of our best quality bracelets were
stolen within the first two weeks, which was VERY discouraging for me.
The owner of the store warned me that there could be some theft, but I
wasn't quite prepared for that. I've put an anti-theft device on the
remaining bracelet, but it affects the look of the bracelet and makes it
difficult to try it on. Needless to say, I will NOT be putting any more
of those there!
Anyway, I appreciate your patience with us as we've tried out this new
venture. I have just updated our
Kandi's Korner Shop and we will be adding new items soon!
Have a wonderful week!
Kandi
P.S. What do you think of Jay's new
CD? I absolutely LOVE it. I play it in my car at home all of the time!
My favorite songs are "Smile,","Sugar, Sugar" and, of course, Jay's
incredible drum Solo! What are your favorites?
