I would like to send out an update and my personal
Thank you to All of You who contributed in some way to
the The Go Red Heart Health Tea was a beautiful success.
Ann Pasquinni with Cloud 9 Tea, who is The Singin'
Bean's Loose Tea provider gave us wonderful information
about the health benefits of different Teas and also had
lots of teas to taste and enjoy. The event earned
$290.00 for the Cause Against Heart Disease and Educated
All the Attendees about the subtle signs and dangers of
Heart Disease specifically in Women but men as well
learned many ways to increase awareness. 
Helen Lusk (my mom) Created an
incredible educational powerpoint presentation on Heart
Disease that is available for review at The Singin'Bean
website on ourLive Laugh Love
Page The Food was magnificant thanks to my friend
and wonderful Nutritionist, Yoga Instructor and owner of
www.bytliskintherapies.com B'Tyli Natural Skin Care Lisa
Washington who knows more about taking care of the body
than anyone I know based on her struggles with Kidney
Disease and subsequent transplant. She offered many
healthy and delicious options to try from lowfat grape
and almond chicken salad, potato poppers an incredible
and healthy winesauce veggies and incredible dips,
bruchetta' and even dark chocolate covered
strawberries. 
The food was wonderful and the door

Nurse from Newnan Hospital took everyones blood pressure
and gave us information on where it should be for a our
heart health. Hand massages to wash away stress were
supplied by Connie Tiffany with Hands for Health and
pictures of all of use in our red outfits were taken by
