    This week’s Mah-velous Magnolia goes out to the one and only: Rue McClanahan

    A true American Icon who brought her sass and sensuality to your tv screen.  She will indeed be greatly missed by many.  Among many roles she’s most known for the infamously fabulous Blanche Devereaux in The Golden Girls, Rue proved it quite all right for a woman to be sexual and not ashamed of it. Her sassy and always classy attitude on and off screen lead her to truly be a Mah-velous Magnolia, and one from whom we can all learn a lesson or two!

    The Mah-velous Magnolia badge will be awarded each Friday to a selected lady {or a few..or fellas..we’ll see!} who has had an impact on my week.  Who knows — maybe you’ll be up next!

    I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interest me are the number you get in a diamond.

    It’s no secret that Cher is one of my favorite artists ever. I love her older work & I love her newer work.

    Big fan of Cher. Big fan.

    This song and video has such a great message that everyone can relate to it at some point or another in their lives.  Not to mention it is absolutely one of those songs you listen to full volume, windows down and singing loudly for all to hear.

    We all forgive. We all forget. We just keep believing.

    *A special Thank You to my Sista Sista, Jessica, who never gets tired of talking me through my less than stellar moments, for being my go to girl on official Sassy Steel Magnolia matters, and for always providing invaluable amounts of love, support and encouragement.*

    “I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.”
