positive feedback



a couple of weeks ago i was at the PSU farmer's market. my favorite one to go to for overwhelming variety of produce and broad spectrum of characters to enjoy watching. as i was foraging about i was stopped by an adorable pair of women who were working on a portland street style blog. "we love what you are wearing, may we take your picture and talk to you about your outfit?" they asked. what? me? frumpy old, frazzled beyond words, worried i may never again get my groove back, ole' me? you've got to be kidding. i was blown away, honored, and totally flattered. and the rest of the day i think i had a bit more spring in my step than i have had in a long long time. sweet blogger women, thank you for the generous compliment.

I love it. And you have always been an inspiration- from the days back in High School when I used to go through your closet to borrow :) You've got style, mama!
