Peacock Alley: Lights, Camera... Hide.
Does anyone actually like to be filmed?
I think movie stars should be paid high salaries
because to be able to act normal while being taped
is one of the most impossible tasks I've ever encountered.
Skinny dipping?
Truth or dare?
The cinnamon challenge?
I'll step up to almost anything...
but ask me to stare in a camera and talk to myself?
Errr.... you might as well ask me to do it in Mandarin
while I'm at it.

Luckily,
my day filming a little video
at Peacock Alley was a lot of fun.
The type of day that is right up my alley.
{Some pun with Peacock Alley should be made, but I can't think of it. Help?}
I got to play around the pretty linens,
catch up with my old friend, Laura,
and dream about what my house would have looked like
had I married an actual Kennedy
instead of that hot guy from my Business Law class.
{Since, obviously, so many of the actual Kennedys were pursuing me.}
The only drawback was that I couldn't actually roll around in the beds
and take ridiculous pictures for your enjoyment/horror
since, apparently, showroom beds aren't exactly sturdy.
I know, I know...
I was just as disappointed as you are.

The video we shot is being edited by some cool people
and I'll share it with you when it's finished...
Unless my suspicions aren't confirmed
and I am indeed the world's biggest tool
with the most terrible voice in the world.
If that's the case,
just forget I ever mentioned it.
But don't forget how awesome Peacock Alley's line is.
Seriously, I wasn't the only one drooling on the stuff....
But the BEST part of the day?
Viola got a new line of bedding named after her.
That's right...
their new, gorgeous collection is called
"Viola."
I mean I'm swelling with motherly pride.
I'm not sure she could win an Olympic gold medal
and I be any prouder.
She felt pretty awesome about it, too.
It's coming soon... and you better believe
that it isn't going to be hidden on here. :)
