Another Wardrobe

I have recently had the pleasure of finishing the daunting Miss Manners' Guide to Excruciatingly Correct Behavior. It took me either almost two or almost three years, I can't recall. 

{from page 592}

"A 'stationery wardrobe' is something Miss Manners has been dearly longing to have, ever since she first heard the term. She thought it meant dresses that didn't play the trick of looking too short one year and too long the next and that didn't caprciously change their fit through the years.

If poor Miss Manners were able to spell, she would not have made such an embarrassing mistake. It turns out that a 'stationery wardrobe' is the commercial term for what ladies and gentlemen refer to as 'writing paper'. By that definition, Miss Manners has an ample wardrobe."

 Miss Ariane, sadly, does not. I have well-wished and thank-you'd my way through a box of my beloved GADABOUT stationery, and they no longer offer my favorite design.

Very well, then. I suppose I'll just buy these fabulous paisley flat cards instead.

No harm, no foul.

Now...if I could only find some cream double-sheeted paper with my monogram engraved in brown, you know, to be used for my "frivolous letters written in brown ink", then my wardrobe would be complete! 

Happy weekend, friends!
