she was one cocktail away from proving his mother right
About the captions
Anne Says: “I once had a mother-in-law who did not wholeheartedly approve of me. She tried to convince me to wear her clothes (A-line skirts with little embroidered tennis rackets, polo shirts) when we went to her country club for dinner. I didn’t score any points by demurring and wearing my own voluminous chintz skirts and translucent antique blouses. My sister-in-law informed me that her mother referred to me as “that gypsy.” I had my own private nickname for my mother-in-law.”
We know you will do the classy thing this Mother’s Day and encourage your mate to send his/her mom some flowers, and lovingly sign the card…but maybe you need to reward yourself for your restraint with one of these magnets, coaster sets, or cocktail napkins.
And remember that shipping is still free through Sunday May 13th in honor of our very favorite holiday!
Funny… I don’t recall asking for your opinion

August’s caption contest winners
I suck at multi-tasking. Which is unfortunate because my job pretty much IS multi-tasking. In the last two days I completed the final designs for my (exciting) January line and began work on my (at least as, if not more exciting) May line. I placed the final purchase orders for new designs for January. I reviewed inventory and placed last minute orders for product we need for this year. I worked on sales projections for our 2012 budget. I started writing copy for our January catalog. And I began work on a new book (!!!). Really, I love my job! This is just my roundabout way of saying: I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I know it has been forever since I posted.
Thank goodness caption-contest-winner-day rolled around to get me back in gear.
What Was She Thinking?
This is one of my current favorite designs.

It was inspired by my very first mother-in-law… who used to refer to me as “that gypsy.”
Guess what I called her?
