LIPS' TIPS #1

Adhere to admonitions, especially those from bath towels (see to the right): 

In case you cannot read it:

"The other day, our towels told us some of them were being kidnapped and taken to faraway places.

So, we adopted some new ones and everyone's happy again.

Now you wouldn't want to break up a new family, would you?

Thank you for caring!"

LIPS' TIPS #2

Always Eat Happy (see pix to the right and below)

This was a particularly stunning omelet that M.Colvin devised one weekend morning -- it was crispy on the outside, moist on the inside, hot & steamy!  Righteous comfort food!

 It can just be a pan of refries, People, nothing fancy; but home-cookin' can be good-lookin'.  (M. snapped this of me in our kitchen.)

Make sure and eat fresh:

---And you will Stay Happy!

Eating happy includes Drinking Happy--M. took this Christmas 2011 after Church at The Columns, across St. Charles Avenue:

 Of course, getting a Happy Massage on a plate can up the Eat Happy factor.  Domenica for me beeday.

Thanksgiving Day, 11/25/10

Opening Day for 139th Thoroughbred Racing

New Orleans Fairgrounds:

M. & I met up with Julie & Roman for a sunny day at the races!!! 

OK: Winners were those with allwordsrunningtogether like as:

"Allworkandnoplay" and "BlackntanatLarry's" (which also referenced a fav bev); those that were beautiful and lively; and those that looked me in the eye...

What a fine day to go to the window for cash!!!! 

 

LIPS' TIPS #6

Don't get too loaded at social events. They will remember it and you may not. To avoid  embarassment, and possibly imprisonment, confine your celebrations to your home environment (your friends and family may be more apt to understand as they were the cause of your psychosis/ neurosis). 

Especially if imbibing brings out an unusual M.O. (when you usually work hard, are a good citizen, and enjoy family time.)

BUT DO MAKE SURE AND HAVE FUN !!!
