New BonBons For All!




Hello, Friends!  I am very excited to let you know that I have several new confectionary couture delights in stock for the Holiday Season.  The little elves (my dear phalanges) have been hard at work, developing beautiful treasures for you to enjoy for yourself or give to others!  I found many beautiful stones and treats on my recent buying adventures.  As you all know, I carefully choose each stone for each and every bite of ear candy, so that you are always purchasing a high quality, one-of-a-kind, handmade product.  These photos, taken by the very talented Amy Dial, show you just a few of the new pieces I'll have available at my shows.  You'll be able to purchase these and many other BonBons at Emerald City Press this Saturday, 11/1, between 8 a.m. and 12 p.m.  You are also invited to the party hosted by The Boutique Real Estate on Thursday, 11/6, at 6:30 p.m.  Please email me for more information on these events:  micahyancey@gmail.com.  Thank you so much for all of your continued support!   xoxoxo

Are you a Twitter-er??


I learned about Twitter with Shelley at Social Media Camp.  She and I ventured out as little sponges, soaking up everything we could in order to better understand this fairly new (and certainly non-traditional) direction of socializing and marketing.  Camp lasted from 10 a.m.- 4 p.m. (long day...not gonna lie) and was chock-full of great info.  I met some awesome people and learned about several sites and practices that were previously foreign to me.  If you've never checked out the "bubble video", 'tis rather funny.  It's a comedic techie geek compilation that really sums up how the world is changing in terms of media and marketing.  

Am I loving the act of blogging?  Yes.  Is anyone reading this besides my dad?  No.

Dad, thanks for reading.  This pic is of Shelley and I from the GIANT happy hour after Social Media Camp.  It was just like being at a charity benefit in Hollywood.  "Who are you wearing, Miss Yancey???"  

"Target couture, Mr. Seacrest."  

Good times and great networking!  Dad, I hope you're proud.  : )

Giving Back with Ronnie and Pals



I have the most awesome friends!  Wow...I am so lucky.  I do thank God for them every day, because they are just so amazing.  The Ronald McDonald House lunch preparation was a big success.  Everyone came together and prepared a wonderful and filling meal for the families of the children who are ill at Dell Children's Hospital here in Austin.  It's heartbreaking when you think about what those families must be going through.  Feeding themselves is probably the last thing on their minds.  I think all of us felt good about giving back and we'll most likely do something to volunteer together once a month, now.
