I hate everything

except for tortellini.

Mom and I went dress shopping today. I think I hate bridal gowns.
The first store said we need an appointment.
The second store was consignment and was okay. I found a lovely gold sequin 1920s flapper gown. Except I'm an hourglass and there was no shaping it.
The third store was totally by the book low end catalog. Polyester. Beads. I said, "I'm looking for something wild and unusual." She handed me something off-white, "This is unusual."

We stopped in at MODA and found the perfect shirt for John. It's linen with gold brocade cuffs and collar. I'll have him go and try it on. The attendant was a sweet old Rastafarian man.

Have you tried places like Flossie's?

Yea bridal shopping is awful. If I had child-free time I would offer to go with you, but honestly the kids kinda suck at shopping so it'd be no fun with them there.
