I’ve had a lot of questions recently from fans who ask, “What goes on inside your head, exactly?” I decided it was time to show a few of my favorite stuff…the stuff that would(should a volcano erupt in Illinois or a sandstorm bury the midwest) make an archeologist tilt his head like a confused chihuahua wondering if haggis is edible.
Welcome to my world:
This is the best bag EVER! It’s based on an actual Harlequin novel, written by a MAN. But the best thing is the title, combined with the bloody knife in the woman’s hand, her smug demeanor and the look of horror of the guy behind her. It is true…you never know with women.
A photo of the faculty wives club at a small Iowa college in the 50’s, admiring a painting they’d recently acquired. Check out the sight line of the woman looking at the photo.
Another photo by the same artist. Same women’s club at the NYC Met. She’s holding two purses so somebody’s in the bathroom and look what frames her.
Another favorite – 3 suffragettes. I have this not only because I’m a feminist, but also because you can tell what each woman is thinking by the look on her face.
I love tea and the fact it’s a pink elephant explains why I like “tea.”
This is a treasure. Some friends of mine, um, borrowed this sign from a women’s restroom because I loved it and talked about it so much. You did not see this. I disavow all knowledge of this sign.
My friend Jane gave me this mug. Remember Gin Bombay and the 4 dozen cookies Vivian the Evil PTA president wanted her to bake?
