There is nothing wrong with being a 50's housewife. It's the fashion you know!
Plus, it's not like you are a phony. You can bake too! Now the only thing you need to work on is the pin curls under the ear. And then, well, I think you'll be the hottest 21st century housewife yet! I mean, Martha's got the touch, but definitely not the looks!

50's anyone?




so i admit it fine, fine, you twisted my arm.. i am a 50's housewife and i dont mind.. well all but the staying home bit ;), .. here is my recent thrift find, a checked cafe curtain.. we shove so much stuff in the kitchen that it is a mess, but ohwell, someday we will have more space.. our copper pot collection is coming along bit by bit.. !!! someday.. someday.. someday we will have more space..

well I surely don´t think it´s fair that I am in cold Quito with the sniffles, as you are playing trains, planes, and automobiles in freezing cold weather!!!!!
That train set is sooo cool! Too bad you don´t have children (not that this is a hint to get crackin). That train is so cute, I think its amazing that jonathan say it and knew how to fix it! How great. I hope that if you don´t keep it, that you sell if for a might fine price! I can't wait to see what sort of things my husband can pull of a trash and make it work! Well, he did fix the floor heater two days ago, when I would have thrown it in the trash, so that´s got to be something. Hey i´ve got an idea, instead of selling it, just let Orca have a really amazing toy! She´ll be the hippiest cat in town! Oh Orca, you spoiled attack cat! Actually, you should train Orca like a cock fighter so if any suspicious people come into the house, she knows what to do! I´m sure if that happened, the city of St. Paul would suddenly ban all cats from the city. Actually, apparently in Ottawa (or one of those provinces in Canada) it is illegal to have pit bulls. If the police know you have a pit bull they are put down! Apparently a mother was found with babies and a animal rights group got the mother to survive and be sent to a different province, but the babies were put down. can you believe that!!! this is what I learned from our roomie. So I take it back, don´t teach Orca anything to do with violence. You should just rub cat nip on your naked body when she looks like she is going to pounce, I´m sure that will bring her over to your side!
