Savannah Georgia again

I went on a trip to Savannah Georgia and did a little antique shopping at some new shops I found in Savannah Georgia. This first picture was taken at The Paris Market  and this globe de mariee was sitting on a table soon as you got downstairs which I love the lower level as much as the top level of the store.

The reason it caught my eye was I had just seen one or 5 like this at Richard's Manion last weekend and knew what it was . $1200.00 !!!!!!!!!!
It is still in the store LOl couldn't get it in my suitcase LOL

These were the chandeliers just as you walk in the store. Downstairs they have chandelier made with oyster shells

They have the best decorating and art books at that store I wanted about 6 of them talk about coffee table books some of them would fit on the kitchen table LOL very large Oh and a beautiful white feather duster I wanted on about a 30 inch wooden handle it was beautiful I would put it in a vase and use for decor

at the 37th & Abercorn antique shop these lovely book ends caught my eye so art nouveau. And UPS is bringing me a box of things I purchased (OMG) again can't wait to get my items home . Vanna you will love them ?

This was  a shot walking down Broughton street where the S C A D theatre is

Then I went to the Back In The Day Bakery and got my picture with the lovely Chery Day she has a new cookbook coming out in March 2012, look for her on the Today show and Good morning America after that and of course I am sure she will be back on the Paula Deen cooking show also

she can really bake a delicious cup cake and her cinnamon rolls were to die for . Her bakery is so cute or vintage decorated love it . I met Mr Griff her sweet husband also ( hold in your stomach Janice ) The Paula Deen tour bus stops there now she has been on Paula Deen's show several times

I took the Paula Deen tour again this year and got to go in the Bethesda  Chapel where Paula Deen  and Michael Grover  got married  love it. It's out where the boys town is she supports

                                                            
       It's a very small chapel when you have the wedding party Paula
Deen  would have had with all their friend and family

I took a cookbook with me that I bought from her first restaurant on Congress street back in 1998 she autographed it for me back then. she was in the kitchen cooking and came out to give me an autograph. Her first restaurnat seated 20 people. I thought if I just happened to run into her again I would ask for a updated autograph( didn't run into her she is off on a book signing tour)
                                                                                                                              
 The we went out to Willington Island to Uncle Bubba's ( Paula's brother's restaurant  for you people who don't know who he is)
He was there and was  signing autograph's and letting us get our picture made with him ( so now does that mean he isn't as popular as Paula?)

                                         To Janice

Omg this is the Jim Williams House ( Johnny Mercer House previously) It was the house filmed in the move Midnight In The Garden of Good & Evil filmed in Savannah 1995? about. I did a tour of it last year while I was visiting the city

     Me standing out front acting I guess funny? I was saying ohhhhhhhhhhhhh or youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. I don't care to show awful pictures of me now do I?                                           

This was a restaurant we had lunch at . Cheryl said go here and I loved it look at all the decor here SoHo

                                                                                                    

see if you can picture a half large wall with this Muriel I couldn't get it all in my picture

                                            
                                                                               
                                              a small chandelier about 4 ft across    
                                                                  
                                                           

                                                              
     Our lunch was delicious . we did a lot of shopping in the little boutiques around this area.  I really liked Gacho.We went in a bed & breakfast I think I will stay in next time I visit I have the brochure somewhere I haven't unpacked yet. when I find it might add more to this comment
       
inside SoHo restaurant

I found a wonderful Ballastone Inn at 13 e Oglethorpe and want to stay there next trip it's right at all the very nice shopping

OK hold onto your socks !!!!! I met this person who was staying in the same hotel as me and she was one of the characters in the Movie Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil  born Benjamin Edward Knox,  now the famous and beautiful Lady Chablis !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lady Chablis !!!!!!!!!!! & Me (another terrible picture of me while I was having fun) can you get over the shock of a bad picture ?

"The Doll " joking with me and my picture companion is not a good photographer LOL. I don't mean to offend anyone however I don't follow the drag queen scene but I think she is so interesting and was beautiful in the movie and i even have and read her book . I am holding her autograph

                                                
an outrageously charming drag Queen is what her book says . She is very tall and slim and I look like a fat Missouri grandma I really don't like posting my picture but it goes with this story  just like when I went to visit Richard

     I am wearing all black my next picture , black turtle neck and long black dress over it LOL
I had another great trip to Savannah Georgia. I didn't get to meet up with Ginger & Bob ( Savannah Granny ) because of a death of a very close friend, maybe next time Ginger
I hope I din't bore you to death with my vacation pictures I had a ball as usuall when I go to Savannah Georgia. My next trip will be Portland Oregon
