There was a little bit of scatter to my Saturday but not enough to make it a Scattered Saturday post. I got a little silly, so I was going to call this Silly Saturday, but a quick check of past posts showed that I used that headline back in 2012. I suppose it would be OK to repeat myself after that length of time (it was kind of a dumb post, actually). Well, let me lead with the silly.
I say it is fabulous and fashionable.
We are supposed to wear fancy hats on Kentucky Derby Day, aren’t we? This was a hat I have had for some years now. I found the furry thing earlier Saturday at a rummage sale at a nearby church. I know, I am supposed to be getting rid of junk at my house, not purchasing more, but I just can’t resist a good rummage sale! I also found a great pair of shoes for costume purposes, a few pairs of gloves good for running this winter, a bowl for my next Halloween party, the man’s blazer I’m wearing in the picture, and a handy zipper bag.
Yummy place to eat!
Before going to the rummage sale, I had breakfast at Saturday Spreads in Frankfort, NY. I had an everything bagel with garden toppings, which I had last time I ate there and had been craving ever since.
Attired in my new fancy hat, I did not go to any Kentucky Derby parties or even to Pete’s Tavern, where I could have made a bet on the race. I did stop by the Elks Lodge so my hat could be seen. My friends were suitably impressed.
I think I need to start dressing fabulously more often and perhaps with less excuse. It is fun and at my age, I think such eccentricities are to be encouraged.
