Slumming With the Rich People

Yesterday I met Cherita and Julianna at Scottsdale Fashion Square. For those of you not familiar with Phoenix, it is a fancy schmancy high-end mall made entirely of gingerbread and recycled diamonds in downtown Scottsdale. All the pretty people go there. Unattractive people and those who wear tie dye need not go inside. Sadly, I once made the mistake of showing up a few Christmases ago without tweezing my eyebrows, and was promptly escorted off the premesis by security. They were just about to stone me when someone walked by with last year's Prada bag. Thankfully I was able to sneak away.
Anyway, I rudely invited myself along to their excursion because I was dying for some girly girl time. And they are the girly girliest of them all. We had a lot of fun gushing over the minature serving tongs at Crate and Barrell and eating overpriced soup at Paradise Bakery. I'm just glad that we live in a civilized country where one can rush out and buy a snowflake shaped pancake maker if necessary. Or an ice cube tray that spells out the entire Greek and Hebrew alphabet. It was very nice of them to let me tag along. Though the average sweater cost the same as a lung transplant, I still had a lot of fun with them. Plus, I got the last laugh when I sneaked past security wearing shoes that didn't match my purse.

I remember those days! Such fun, good memories. Yep, I think he got the cards thrown at him a time or two.

You're the winners all right(of one of the best pastors)-they are some of my favorite people to be around. Just make sure they can come back this way occasionally.

Sounds like quite the place you gals went to, must have been a blast.

Smiles..., Diane
