I know, I know, I know. We’ve been totally neglecting this blog. And really with no good reason, unfortunately. Our friend Anna set us straight and told us to update. So, here I am.
I was just outside for a while, working on putting up the Christmas decorations on the front porch with our Mom. She hates doing the outside decorations because it’s cold outside and there’s a lot of going up and down on the ladder (which I hate myself), but I love it because it means it’s almost Christmas. Yeah, I get a little worked up this time of year because I start thinking about all the fun Christmas stuff and you’ll often find me sitting by myself and smiling like an idiot because I’m getting all excited. But, anyway, the decorations look good (if I do say so myself) and, as usual, Mom got into it. She’s just as excited as I am, she’s just better at hiding it.
Oh, but here’s something super exciting. So, we did this designer’s market in New York last weekend and it was kind of slow going all day, and we were kind of bored out of our minds by about five o’clock, when who should walk into the joint but Elizabeth Berkley. ELIZABETH BERKLEY! Of Saved by the Bell and Showgirls fame! Yes, that Elizabeth Berkley! And she wanted to buy this scarf from us, but her friends/husband/whoever they were were all, “Elizabeth, we gotta go.” So, Elizabeth, if you’re reading this, listen. We will totally hook you up with Snow Bunny if you still want it. And, girl, don’t let your friends push you around. Jessie Spano wouldn’t put up with all that mess.
So, anyway, few sales, even less traffic, and barely decent chicken soup (but, I must say, kick ass fries) pretty much would have summed up our entire trip into New York for this show, but Elizabeth Berkley almost buying a scarf from us really put it over the top.
Oh, and speaking of liking our mother, if you’re looking for an awesome movie to watch, I have a recommendation. And no, it’s not Showgirls, unless you’re catching the edited-for-tv version on VH1 or LOGO where they CGI shirts and bras on all the topless ladies (and sometimes CGI thongs on them, too!) and the chick they got to dub in for E.B. sounds ABSOLUTLEY nothing like her. But, anyway, you should watch You’ll Like My Mother starring a very young Patty Duke as a pregnant widow who goes to stay with her creepy ass mother- and brother-in-law (or are they?) played John Boy Walton, who lock her in the attic and try to steal her baby, or something. I don’t really remember the plot all that well, but just rest assured that it’s awesome and you should definitely watch it. And then give a shout out to Elizabeth Berkley, our new best friend. What’s up, girl?
