A Toast to New Orleans and YOU: Week of 1/16 -23: The Good Apple Gala/ Charlie Parker Yardbird/ CAMAN BALL & Info about Round Table Luncheon on January 27....
Good afternoon my darling family and friends. Let's celebrate today, Monday, January 16th, the rich history, and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that." "We've got some difficult days ahead. But it really doesn't matter with me now because I've been to the mountaintop... I've looked over and I've seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land." Wishing you a peaceful, blessed week.
Darlings, this past week is going to go down in my memory as one of the most exciting, fun-loving weeks of this decade.
