Venerable Vintage Hats: Not Seen Everyday!

Minerva: What do you think, Mother?

Stepmother: Uh, it's certainly not the sort of thing you see everyday.

Calliope: I saw it first. How do you think it looks on me, Mother?

Minerva: Ech, awful.

Calliope: I didn't ask you.

Stepmother: How can a mother choose between two such extraordinary daughters!

Calliope: Cinderella. Cinderella!

Cinderella: Yes?

Calliope: Does it look better on me?

Minerva: Or me?

Cinderella: Well, I don't know much about hats, but I don't think it flatters either one of you.

(Stepsisters gasp!)

Minerva: What did you ask her for?

Calliope: She doesn't know anything about hats, she said so herself!

Silly Saturday: Family

Yes that's me. Giant Cindy Lou Who

She doesn't want to waste away her 15 lbs of  fat cuteness by walking to the food dish. 

Deck the halls with boughs of Sully. Falalalalalala

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I LOST MY HAIR????

Nope I checked, its still here.

Happy Silly Saturday!

P.s. The cat wasted away on the way to the food dish. :~D

Silly Saturday: Fortune cookie saga

While frying onions, I decided to have a fortune cookie.

Sounded simple. We had plenty extra.

I opened it. 

"Only tears can bring a dreamer back to earth."

(I wish I had been dreaming when this occurred). 

My cookie was STALE! :~(

I threw it out and got another.

"You will have a happier day."

(I hope so. A stale fortune cookie could ruin my day!)

It was soft AND stale. :~(

I got another. 

"Oops... wrong cookie."

(NO JOKE)

It was also stale.

I was still frying onions and I WANTED A FORTUNE COOKIE!!!

So I got a 4th.

"There is someone owing many thanks to you."

(For what? Getting rid of stale fortune cookies??)

It was awful.

So cookie no. 5 came along. 

"He that can't endure the bad will not live to see the good."

Now I wanted to laugh. 

Especially because it was disgusting......

So I decided since the onions I was frying were almost ready for the potatoes....this would be my last.

I opened it.

Gently broke it open.

Carefully tasted it....

IT WAS YUMMY!

"The secret of success is constancy of purpose."

My fortune cookie saga. 

(Surprisingly we still have more.... :~D)

Silly Saturday & Sunday!

I listened to Christmas music.

After listening to one CD, I HAD to listen to more!

I noticed after almost 6-8 months that the snow brushes are still on the porch.

Us New Yorkians keep an eye out for snow; even in the summer!

What silly things have you done?? 

Silly Saturday: Sleepin' in

I slept in today!

Instead of getting up at 7:30,

I got up at 8:20.

:~)

Silly Saturday: Potato heads!

What do you think??? :~)
