As some of you may know Husby and I spent last weekend at the Chateau St. Croix Winery and Vineyard selling my wares at their Fall Festival. The weather was absolutely perfect and people came to the festival by the thousands. One of the most fun things to do when at an event like that is people watching.
I saw them from a distance, walking down the grassy aisle toward the music tent. They were two ladies, same small stature. They were in their eighties if they were a day and were spiffed up for their outing at the winery. They both wore slacks (yes, when you’re in your eighties they’re called “slacks”) and identical sequined blouses. They also sported identical, jet black beehive hairdos, puffed up to make their heads look much too large for their tiny bodies. If they weren’t twins they were sisters very close in age. I speculate they never married and still live in the house they in which they grew up.
They paid no attention to my booth, but I think they might have appreciated this ~
You can find this magnet in my Etsy shop in the Word To Live By Magnets section, or check out the sheet magnet tab at the top of this page. You’ll find the Sisters magnet there, along with tons of others.
I wonder which of those two old sisters was the bad one.
I love to people watch, too! Imagine the life those sisters had, if you’re correct in imagining that they’ve lived together all these years…Thanks, Sara!
I love to come up with stories for the people I see in my travels. When sitting and waiting in an airport its fun to develop entire lives for the people I see sitting and waiting just like me. I wonder if they make up a story about me too!
Is there anyone who isn’t a “people watcher?” I guess only some of us admit to it. 😉
Love the button. Made me laugh out loud!
Yes, I’m a people watcher and proud to admit it. I might go a little too far with my speculative stories though. A girl’s got to entertain herself, right?
Ha ha, a bad sister and a good sister! Interesting about “slacks”. My near-80 year old mother just announced she was going to wear slacks to Christopher’s wedding. And answer to question up above: yes a girl’s got to entertain herself!
I accidentally referred to my dress pants as slacks in front of my sister. She mocked me unmercifully. Obviously she is the bad one between the two of us!
