A visit to China...


I can't believe it is Summer....where has the year gone?  Jubilee has so many new items in the loop, we can't wait to introduce them!  Not only is the lighting line expanding, but we will be bringing in a lot of fabulous new accessories.  Definitely be on the look out.

As for what we've been up to...Cary just got back from a week long trip to China checking on our product.  Oh how I wish I could have been a fly on the wall.  Those of you that know Cary know he is a good 'ole East Texas boy, China has never been on his radar.  Meat and potatoes are his meal of choice.  You'll notice I've attached a couple of pictures of beetles before they were cooked and after.  These beetles were lunch one day!  Along with a fine selection of snake, stingray and an assortment of live fish.  Even better, my dear husband got to visit a Karaoke bar (a common business tradition in China).  Of course the guest is always required to sing.  What did he entertain them with you ask?  A little Lady GaGa with an East Texas twang:)  He finally returned home yesterday bearing gifts.  The kids got candy, foreign coins and Mackenzie a doll.  My gift was a beautiful David Yurman sterling silver and gold heart necklace:)  He was so excited to give it to me.  I knew the minute I held it up there was a little something different about it.....remember Chinese women are VERY petite.  My beautiful necklace was sautered on a 12" chain and when latched the heart was mounted on my adams apple:)  I couldn't chuckle or I would have busted the chain...oh how I LOVE him!  Off to the jewelers to fix that!  Just a couple of fun stories about the joy and excitement Jubilee brings to our lives.  Until next time.....
