Hello World!  Oooh, sweet Lord, you people really made it hard to choose the court of Queens this week.  Shall we get to it?  Welcome to week 39 of:

Pretty Marsha popped into a flea market on the way home from work and found the little piece that she bought and tucked in the back of her screened porch.  Isn't her screened porch just a dream?  To see Marsha and her cabinet, pop on over to Every Little Birdie.
