I will be going in a functional costume: a maid. Since I will be serving at a buffet for a party, it was deemed appropriate. Yes, for ALL ages; there will be children present. So, NO naughty French Maid!
They asked me what I wanted to be at first, so playfully, I said "a princess". THey took off with that and told me I could be Cinderella and in my usual deadpan way I told them that knowing them as I did, they would be mean about it and make me dress as Cinderella Pre-Fairy Godmother, in an old Goodwill dress and soot on my face. We laughed so hard about that that the idea was dropped. Lucky me. So now I get to be a serving maid in a black dress with white trim. Yes, I expect to look silly but so what? It's all in fun anyway.
I'll try to get a postable pic to share after the fact, which is next week.
Brian
