Friends I've Made: A Friend is a Friend Til the End of the End

                                                                   

A new friend somehow found his way to the lady's Del Aire estate just in time for Easter! That's a heck of a red eye from Shanghai!  The Lady almost went certifiably insane while attempting to finish him up on Holy Saturday upon realizing that she'd sewed this Panda's nose, mouth and eyes to his bum! But he turned out thoroughly charming and full of cock-eyed character. He'll set up his homestead down south with Fraternal Patriarch and his Lady. In the spirit of this blog, we hope this Panda finds himself with employment  to make the world a better place. 

And now a brief update on Eco-Pup. He faithfully resides with the kindest of couples at their WestSide Chalet - he clearly is not too good to bestow some kindess when it's merited to his former owners:

  On the left is proud and tired Domestic Patriarch after his long quest to finish the LA Marathon. On the Right is Eco-pup helping him rest. A kind and goodly pup if ever there was one.

Recession Watch: At least it's 2010 Edition

"The Shrimp Girl" or "The Saleswoman of Crabs" was on a Yemeni postage stamp in 1969. 

The Lady is a lover of all things beautiful - chief of these is the study of art! I present to you the silliest name in all of art history - "The Shrimp Girl".

I like this Lady - she's buxom, happy to be storing clams and musssls in her giant hat while wearing a joyfully blank expression!  Maybe being a "Shrimp" girl makes me chuckle due to the Lady's own small stature. Maybe I relate to her cheerily vacant look (despite her fishy life) since it takes little more than a cupcake and new lipstick to make the Lady equally as happy?  Or perhaps she's just got a streak of 13 year old boy in her psyche to not giggle like a fool at being a purveyor of crabs (heh).
