Local color


[For fashionistas and fashionistos only.]

Here’s Elaine Fine, wearing the dress she made from fabric designed by our friend Jean Petree. It’s a dropped-waist Laura Ashley-like dress, from a mid-90s pattern.

*

5:20 p.m.: Washing softened and shrank the fabric. The dress fits perfectly.

[We didn’t realize until after the fact that, like Homer’s Penelope, Elaine is standing next to a column. But unlike Penelope, she is smiling.]

I kept quiet about the bears at the p.o.

Bears just might could be a security risk...
