Well Dressed Servants

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.
Vivacious Viking - she seams our curtains, clothing.

Beautiful Betty Bosch - she mixes our bread dough.
Com Ed - who is leased monthly. He oversees all the others.

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 
a little blue (wink) 

after seeing this custom outfit

 worn by one of her cousins over at 
The Pioneer Woman.

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?
