AOL Journals: Magic Smoke

Hearing Mozart, Piano Concerto No. 18 So, I was able to track down some of those elusive kids running around the offices today.

Here's cow-orker Joanne (she of the Specialty Traveler and The Awwwww Factor blogs) -- apparently, she is running some sort of Pretty, Pretty Princess sweatshop. Or focus group. It could go either way:

I showed them a draft, and I was instructed (er, requested) to include a picture of the dolls:

From left to right, we have Erica, Annalise, Rapunzel, and Odette. I had to ask for help on the names.

Also, did you know that nowadays, they use velcro (sorry, hook-and-loop fasteners) on the outfits, instead of snaps? I did not.

Thanks -- Joe

  Re: This is blogging? -- Well, it's part of it, anyway. The beauty of blogging is that it's just conversations, so you can be talking about Pretty, Pretty Princesses or the war in Iraq or what your kids did or the crappy day you had at work -- it's whatever you want to talk about.
