Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Black sleeveless top and black strappy sandals, ita.

I can tie it all back to black, that's for sure.

Although I suspect there will be a fair amount of cowboy boot wearing with it.

It's such a lovely cut, and a soft fabric that I was tempted into it despite it not being in one of my colours. The shade of green was even less me.

I have to convince myself to stop buying the "party" boxes of cereal. Or whatever the samples are called. I hate Apple Jack so much I throw it away. I pretend I'll eat the Froot Loops and Frosted Flakes, and they just pile up, and I power through the rest of the samples, but not often enough to make it sensible to buy an actual box of the cereals.

I have so much Froot Loops sitting around, it's dumb.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I love watching how kids switch cuteness. It's an extremely important biological necessity that they are cute in order to survive.

I still need to pot my strawberry plants. But I need to go get another bucket to do an upside down planter.

Because books.

I love Froot Loops. But I eat them dry as a snack, not for breakfast.

I think a white top with that skirt, and cowboy boots and a big bracelet or necklace in a strong color (not both), would also look great.

I think you can donate the unopened sample sizes to food banks. Then make a note to buy full boxes of the cereals you actually like.

Dry Froot Loops hurt my tender mouth. Goodwill wouldn't happen to take food, would it? No, I didn't think so. But I really should drop off the shoes and electronics there soon.

And if I bought the honey smacks and cocoa puffs and whatever the other thing is that I then dilute with Special K, they'd go bad, because I have a bowl a month, maybe. I'm pretty bad at candied cereal.

I think a white top with that skirt, and cowboy boots and a big bracelet or necklace in a strong color (not both), would also look great.

I know exactly which relatives to steal from to make this happen, but I do not have the pieces myself. I will end up with a faded black t-shirt, a tattered biker jacket, cowboy boots and an impractically fresh orange skirt peeking out. Because I don't know how to present myself properly.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I'm sure a food bank would take food.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That's a lovely skirt, ita. I think I like it best in orange.

In Olympia most supermarkets have donation barrels for local food banks. Surely S.Cal is not behind our hick town on this?

Odds are probably pretty good, you'd think. I just don't know where any are, off the top of my head. I don't *think* I've seen barrels in supermarkets.

I get irritated about how what is essentially a hick town thinks of itself as so far ahead of the curve on everything. But maybe there is a grain of truth in Olympia's self-image.
