Happy Birthday, H.C.A!



In honor of Hans Christian Andersen's birthday I thought we'd have a fairytale brunch. Andersen's fairy tales were definitly favs amongst my sisters and I. Who didn't love the story of the Princess and the Pea?!? I wonder how many injuries we sustained whilst piling every couch cushion in the house into a stack to see if we could feel the pea to find out who the real princess of the family was. And then Thumbelina.  Gah, I frikin loved thumbelina, that lucky little bitch! She could sleep in a walnut shell, sailed on lily pads and got to play with fairies. And we can't forget The Little Mermaid , whom  I have no sympathy for. If I were a mermaid princess, which I'm pretty sure I was in another life, I would never want to leave the ocean kingdom. "wouldn't you think i'm the girl who has everything?" well, yeah sweetheart, you do so stop being so flippin greedy. what a spoiled brat.

Anywho, the gangs all here, and I think Tracy Reese and Rebecca Taylor are fighting over who gets to be the costume designer.  Dress, Luphia (about 42$)
