Everyone was born to do something well.
Some find their calling, others never do.
Thankfully I learned mine early on.
I am called
to be good
to servants.
It's a job I take very seriously.
A well maintained staff is a happy staff.

Kirby - she takes care of my floors.
The WP twins who take care of our laundry.
Teriffic Trane - he keeps my house cool in summer.

And Plain Jane, my Kitchen Aid mixer.
I purchased her at a garage sale for $50
9 years ago.
She has been a well behaved, dependable servant.
Never giving me any lip
when I ask her
to whip up tree-bark-and-gravel
(whole wheat)
muffins one day
and clog-ya-heart-right-up
buttercream frosting the next.

She had been getting

Now I do hate to see such a fine servant
pining for something pretty to wear;
so I contacted Sweet Sarah over at Olive Tree Works
and told her the sad, sad story of Plain Jane.
I explained that
Plain Jane was born a cookie cutter
"There are a million just like me"
but is a actually a one-of-a-kind-hippy-girl at heart.
Sweet Sarah understood perfectly and
designed something just for her!

Now Pulchritudinous Jaynne
(the artist formerly known as Plain Jane)
feels like she has finally
earned her stripes.
You know how it is though,
if you get something for one
the others start looking wistful.
I think I may be calling
Sweet Sarah again soon.
Wouldn't the fridge look lovely
in some pearls and lace?
