NIGELLA LAWSON is in the HOUSE!!! Well.....her COAT is!

As you already know, I ADORE NIGELLA LAWSON!! She is my WOMAN CRUSH!! Hubby and I compete with our level of CRUSHING when it comes to Nigella. But I am winning when it comes to CONNECTING with her. Mostly before it was with Twitter...so far I have received three direct messages from her...I KNOW and you don't have to tell me, its probably a young assistant in braces who is responding  to me and not her!! But deep down, I know its her!! OK!! DON'T shatter my DREAMS!!! But we took it to another level.....and I squealed with EXCITEMENT when I KNEW that I WON!!

Last month, I noticed on Twitter that she had donated a COAT, signed PHOTO/NOTE for Charity. High Fashion Society (@HighfashionUK) was holding an Celebrity Wardrobe Raid 2013. Winning proceeds were going to a Kids Company Charity. Quickly I went to the site...I had five minutes left to bid! The RATIONAL SIDE said NOT TO BID! Save your money for like FOOD and BILLS.....the IRRATIONAL SIDE said "BID BABY...BID!!" I had no idea what the conversion rate was and what was shipping??? Then Hubby TOLD ME TO DO IT!! That's all I needed... with a QUICK TWEET CONVERSATION with High Fashion to find out the prices/shipping.....I had ONE MINUTE LEFT!! And during that MOMENT I had to REGISTER before BIDDING!! After it was ALL done....I waited...sitting at the desk....waiting......

After 20 minutes, I dragged myself away from the computer.....the kids needed me and Hubby was suppose to be sleeping. An hour later, after the kids were in bed and things were settled for the night...I went back ON LINE!! I WON!! I WON!! I sat in the chair...and starred at the screen...I WON and there was NO ONE TO TELL...they were all ASLEEP! When I did go to bed, I just laid beside Hubby and starred at him...a DEEP STARE...I was talking to him through MIND POWER...WAKE UP...WAKE UP...and he DID...he LOOKED at me and asked "did you win?" YES YES YES!!!!

Now....if I could ONLY STARE AT HIM and MIND TALK HIM INTO PUTTING THINGS AWAY!

"Nigella Lawson has donated this gorgeous classic vintage coat designed by the Queens dressmakers 'Hardy Amies' straight from her wardrobe to support our Celebrity Wardrobe Raid 2013 charity auction to support Kids    Company. Nigella Lawson originally purchased this piece at the famous 'William's Vintage' boutique in London." 

*I just don't know where to put the JACKET!! Part of me wants to put it in the KITCHEN..in a DISPLAY CASE...I can "talk" to Nigella everyday....ask her opinion on things!! Think of the FUN we could have!!
