The Newspaper Section Personality Test

We sat side-by-side at the dining room table reading the paper.

"Finally," he said in remark to the protests in Russia.

I giggled in the background. "What's going on?"

He told me, and with passion because he gets passionate about world issues.

"Oh. That's good, then." I said very Midwestern-like. "Hey, you gotta read this," I said while pointing to the comic strip. He read it, humored me with a smirk and continued to read his paper.  "Get it?  Shoot craps..."

Silence.

"Well, I thought it was clever."

"Uh huh."

Merry Making

 

Me thinks I'll be making this hat, perhaps with matching culottes (can anyone tell me why images of anything other than culottes comes up when you google images for culottes).  Cleanse my mind oh Lord!

Anyway, I have a skirt that is dying to have a new life as a hat and maybe a pair of culottes...or a vest.


See? Hat. Definitely a hat. I have a few free hours tonight.  I think I'll start cutting out the pattern.
