Four Years Ago This Month, and Last Night

December 5, 2007 by WendyB

The late Mr. Chubbs (a CHINESE DOG) certainly enjoyed the taste of his own nose! He looks so happy in this December 2003 photo. If you would like to make a stamp out of this picture for your holiday cards, that would be very peculiar. But don’t let the fact that I think you’re a…

Don’t Get Taken to the Cleaners

September 26, 2007 by WendyB

Most gold jewelry can be easily cleaned at home with a soft toothbrush and warm soapy water. Or, if you are lazy like me, there are solutions that you can purchase. Never use harsh detergents or bleach. You can gently rub the piece with a soft, dry cloth too. You do not need to buy…

Britney and the Ring

July 30, 2007 by WendyB

I finally dragged out the scanner, so here’s the picture from OK of Britney scampering off while wearing my Borgia ring, as well as a close-up of the ring. I’m not too keen on those tighty-whities she’s wearing, but I suppose they’re better than nothing.

Britney Spears stole my ring, y’all!

July 25, 2007 by WendyB

Run out and get the Britney’s Meltdown issue of OK! Magazine. Ms. Brit-Brit is wearing my Borgia ring on page 46. She helped herself to that ring and quite a few other items during the shoot.
