Peace....

It is in the works as we speak....hopefully it'll be out before the year is over. But trust me, it is being worked on. Everything will be donated to Mrs. Yancey and it has the official blessings of Mrs. Yancey. You'll know when it comes out....can't really speak upon it, but just had to let you know that this idea is already in effect.

Blessings,
