Haven't had a chance to put thought into this years garb, though both pairs of boots need fixing, so that's probably where the money is going <and quite possibly a pirate hamster :) >


Course, depending on the situation, there might be more. I ain't telling.

<though I will say, the lone wolf might not be totally lone>

I just had an image of a giant cowbell around the Elephant's neck.   ;D

My Lord, that is quite the most large cow I have ever clapped mine eyes upon. Pray tell, what hast thou been feeding her?

I thought for a second Baron had gone hamster comment on us, but I see it is a Hey quote...

So, if the nun tasted of Arnold Palmer...would that mean that the elephant had a taste for Sweet Nun?

Careful- all we need is another golfer apology...

Yes- a sweet nun  :)  Fortunately Paige was much kinder last summer- no need for a nun helmet as an addition to garb...

The girls and I are seriously considering making our own costumes this year . . . something well-fitting, much simpler, and WASHABLE. But that's all still in the works. If not that, then we'll be in the same dresses as before. Barring that, well, we all have birthday suits.

Gee I don't know why you would want costumes that fit (Wink Wink)

As for the elephant... she hasn't squeezed me yet for a Blue Nun... but she did circle my head and try to take my wig a couple times.  She knows what belongs there and what doesn't.

As for my garb, I am hoping to introduce my new character.  Just think walking trash heap and you may just picture it right.  No bears named Lancelot though.  Those came out with Roosevelt.

Well I hope you all have fine new garb. While the dresses they supply are pretty, Noblise Oblige dresses are NOT cheap and are NOT made to last. Take this from someone who thought long and hard about one and then found someone who makes HA dresses that do last made for me, at half the cost. And while mine are washable, I have to wash them the old fashion way... By Hand which sucks but gives me more respect for them.

Best of luck in the new garb search

I went through my fabric boxes. If I get my act together, I will have between 1 and 4 new outfits. It all depends on how much I can get done. I will definitely have a new pink skirt and new bodice to match. I may also have a green, a blue, or a black skirt with matching bodices.

I definitely need to get into the game of learning how to create costumes.  I have a feeling it would 1) save me a lot of money and 2) lead to a lot of new characters!
