Saturday morning I picked up Mama to ride with me to Barnes and Nobles in Shreveport for the next stop on the wild ride that is Sue Ellen's Girl Ain't Fat, She Just Weighs Heavy. She was looking quite sassy. I meant to get a picture of her all my her beautiful self, but it slipped my mind. Drats. Here's one of us with Ms.

Hey y'all, better late than never, right? I hope so. I need to catch y'all up on the tail end of the book tour. Red and I left Birmingham and drove to Tupelo, MS,  home of the one and only ELVIS. More on Mr. Swivel Hips in just a bit. Our accomodations awaited, with a bit of a surprise. Apparently, we had the Honeymoon suite?! Reed's Bookstore

I have two words to say about the Atlanta traffic. Have mercy. I'm thru now. It would simply take more energy than I have to do

Oh, what fun--  I do hope my first trip to this Grand Old Southern Lady of the South won't be my last! My stay started off with good and just got better.  You can scroll back a post or two for my Paula Deen moment at The Lady and Her Sons. GOOD EATING doesn't even begin to tell the story. Afterwards, I was blessed to be

We have arrived in Tupelo! SO excited about being back here for signing at the wonderful Reeds Bookstore tomorrow! We do however have one question about our room. Why?
