You Know You're a True Rennie if...

... you want breakfast and head for the IHOP Loki bottle...

Ok, gotta know what this means . . . .

It's Loki that was made last year. Tastes like alcoholic pancake syrup. Awesome stuff...

Your husband is buying a new car, and you ask if his armor and swords will fit before he makes the final decision.  He says, yes, but if we're bringing pole arms, we'll still have to take the van.

Seems like perfectly reasonable car-buying criteria to me...

When we bought our current "large" vehicle, we wanted to make sure it had enough room for a camping trip.  And not just a normal camping trip, but a faire camping trip, which involves about 50% more stuff!

LOL- Now you have no excuse not to come to Scarby.  I need somone else with kiddos to hang out with-----You know you want to!

Evil temptress...

Sounds like it would taste awesome. Wish I could try it lol.

When you buy a historic romance novel at a second-hand store, just because you want to make the gown worn on the cover.

[Tipsy Gypsy]

You recognize another rennie as the hero on a historical romance cover

[Lady Neysa]

When, while watching that famous scene from The Sound of Music, you AND your kids break out into the "Dough the Stuff That Buys My Beer" song.

Lady Renee, if you are reading this, I know you will appreciate it. 

Received my church directory today, Easter Sunday and there is my ren faire photo in it! Aye, I am the only one to be so garbed in the church directory.

It was the most recent and best photo of me that I had, so I submitted it. That's my excuse and I am sticking to it. 

[Adriana Rose]

hehehe I did that today too!

my sister gave me the stink eye when my nephew started to mime me

[CatAshtrophy]

you make the person who hit your car while driving home from faire very nervous when you step out to inspect any damage. I think the daggar in the bodice is what did it.

Thankfully everybody was fine and there was no damage to either car.

So now there's two churches with Rennies in garb in their directories.  Let's start a movement!

You're right, I had  a chuckle over this!

....when you go to get cash for faire you specifically request half of it in $1 Gold Coins because 1) its gold and 2) it would be cool to pay everyone with gold.

[Celtic Lady]

We do that as well BamaWoodsman. Good thing I work at a credit union  .

[Var Greyshadow]

I found out the soda machine at work gives gold dollars as change, so during faire, I always stick a $5 in and get 4 gold dollars back to use for tips.  Lawrence usually gets a roll or two from his bank too.

...you're looking at apartments that you -might- be renting in the near future and start going "Oh, and -that- closet would be -perfect- for garb and other Ren things.

...you're already planning a garbed housewarming for your future apartment. 

[theniel]

You take a trip to the dolar tree and walk out sword fighting your husbend with foam swords!!! I had to have them!! It was really fun!

I agree with the useing of swords as home security that is our system too and saying huzzah in the mundane.....you get verry odd looks lol!
