Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler!! :yahoo:

We had a mini parade here at daycare today!! I got a couple of pics I'll try to upload. I brought in my 'give-away' beads and showed them my 'special' beads and the stories behind them and we just had a blast!!:party2:

Would these be your Love Beads or a Pearl Necklace per chance?

It's a Southern Colonial thing Slip, you wouldn't understand.:cool:

And then if you can imagine removing the naturally occurring pearls and replacing them with something more man-made........ :wink2:

But why/how would it end up around your neck? Sounds a bit sloppy, if you ask me.

Ohhhhhh, gotcha. That makes me think of these slaggy girls running around with 'hicky necklaces'...or y'all may call them 'love bites', I don't know, I just think that it's D-I-S-GUSTIN'!!

these ALL the way round your neck!! I say they need to be done but not seen!!:pimp:

From where I stand it's always better to be a giver rather than a reciever!

now...... nothing's been said about the love beads ladies? do they have the desired effect in Waitrose?

should grouch invest?
