Elevator Controls
I couldn’t believe these old-fashioned elevator controls at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City…not even when visiting Marshall Field’s of Blessed Memory on State Street in Chicago, a location I know had “Elevator Girls” back in the day, have I seen such an artifact of elevator history!
Only 19…
But her mind is older!
Today is Ladybug’s 19th birthday! She requested one of her favorite dinners…cabbage rolls!
I made some homemade rye bread to go with them:
And a strawberry-mint green tea:
Plus her favorite guava celebration cake from the Lilo and Stitch cookbook:
Happy birthday Ladybug!

Sartorial Saturday–Garden Party
My second purchase from the Miss Candyfloss Legendary Liz collection is the Audrey-Floria dress, in my very favorite style!
What makes it my favorite Miss Candyfloss style? The row of buttons all the way down the front and the pleated bust…it’s such a flattering look!
I accessorized with my newest fascinator, a pair of butterfly earrings, an Erstwilder brooch, and a necklace and stack of Duchess Bangles from Splendette that go well with my pink lace gloves:
Chickadee said that this dress looks like a Monet painting, and I’m inclined to agree with her!
I really love both the floral print and the color palette…it will be so easy to accessorize it in so many different ways!
It’s another beautiful look for spring!
I still have one dress from this collection I’d like to order that hasn’t been released yet…hopefully I don’t have to wait too much longer!
