Remember the printed shoelace craze? Everyone had hearts, frogs, whales, clovers, and jack-o-lanterns on their laces. It looked like a bowl of Lucky Charms having a fight on your Tretorns. What were we thinking? How was that fashion? I’m dubious, but maybe they will come back around with Peter Pan collars, painters pants, and interchangeable button-on purse covers from Papagallo. Just thinking about it makes me want to needlepoint a tennis racket cover!
Martina Nehrling’s happy paintings remind me of those Vera-colored days. Pass the Tang.

Ah. The good olde days. Glad you have taken the time to remember them…
These make me want to eat ice cream with jimmies. Can you tell I have a sweet tooth?
Still loving this blog Betsy. Thanks so much!
