We picked up a pizza from Red Pepper in Duvall.  I set it on the dashboard of my car and headed home.  I watched as the pizza slid off my dashboard and landed upside down on my car seat and then the floor.  My beautiful light grey leather purse was the perfect landing pad for the pizza!  Ugh!  Needless to say, it was a huge mess!  I called Red Pepper to order another pizza.  When I told them what happened, they gave us our pizza for free!  Thank you so much Lorna and all your amazing employees!

Whenever it takes place, the message will be the same.  TAKE TIME TO BE KIND!!!!! :o )

Thank you to everyone who participated this year!!!!
