Not to mention that rash.

It’s futile advising someone wearing a chicken head, but drinking red wine through a straw is very inappropriate behaviour.

This one might allow her to drink from a suitable glass:http://www.ebay.com/itm/HOT-PINK-FLAMINGO-HAT-ADULT-ANIMAL-BIRD-SWAN-COSTUME-HAT-CAP-/281071803054

I was looking for a Brueghel, but did not find.

Looks like they are having pork, the other white meat. Not that it matters to Scooter, but it would be very strange to prepare and serve chicken while wearing a …..Waaaaaaiit a minuet (sic) ! If it were chicken and Mabeline was were to be wearing this outfit, Well then it might be a an offer for her start doing the things she used to do. The wine helps her be true to Pierre, who does truly love that madamoiselle.

What happened was Mavis did not go to Susan’ Salon for her haircut as she usually did, she went to the new one out on Highway 14 , Carol’s Classic Curls and Poodle Parlor. Carol had a fight with her husband that morning and she got scissor happy on Mavis’s head. Mavis was so upset that she went over to Stel’s Costume Annex and bought the first headpiece she could find.

Heads up ( pun intended) she said she is gonna wear the dang thing until her hair grew back. I’ve seen her hair, I’m thinkin’ Christmas.

Those Brits love their birds.

Oh Rose!

I wondered what happened when she didn’t show up and then didn’t answer my messages.

I’d better go bring her some chicken soup (um…. or maybe some pie?) and take a look…

maybe I can coax her in and at least make it cuter.

I warned her about that place.

A 42% off coupon can end up, as I like to say, “Big trouble that costs double” if I have to re-do it AND it’s already too short.

 

That costume might be OK for a little fun at a party…

but to eat in, it’s for the birds.

I don’t think that a chicken head goes well with pork.

Bird brain.

Ever since Mavis got laid off from her job as the Chick-fil-A Chicken, she’s been in a state of depression.

She’s taken to wearing parts of her costume around the house and has even ventured out-of-doors wearing the head, particularly after that nasty mishap at Carol’s Classic Curls and Poodle Parlor.

Marvin, her long suffering spouse, has dutifully put up with her black moods, blue funks, and purple hair but prays for the day when she’ll return to her once rosy outlook and golden disposition.

Things are looking up ( maybe ) because I heard that she’s got a chance to play the Energizer Bunny at Sparky’s Electrical & Lighting Supply, Battery Bazaar and Vegetarian Food Emporium !

“But, by all means, keep it on…”

Oh Monkey… A banana dak with you always helps!
