dustbury.com: That do-your-own-thing thing

19 April 2007

"What they do with songs, you can do with clothes," said the ad:

The Cream, The Stones, The Beatles, The Others, they're all saying something. About Love. And Peace. And Happiness.

But just because you haven't got the talent to play the guitar, and sing your brains out, doesn't mean you can't say something about yourself.

Because with a Simplicity pattern you can express yourself in the way you look, either way out, or way in, or whatever.

Love, peace and happiness may be ephemeral, but "whatever" is apparently eternal.

(Found in American Girl, April 1970.)

As I read this entry, I opened a fortune cookie-- the fortune read: You love peace :-)

Goes with the entry, doesn't it?

The last time I got a fortune cookie, the fortune read, "Inspected by 14."

Orange and green plaid bell bottoms is a statement that I'm not willing to make at this time.

"What they do with songs, you can do with clothes"

Hooray! I'm downloading a whole new wardrobe!

Lucky you. I found a cloth-napkin pattern once on Lapster, but that was it.
