Meanwhile, in Southern California...

I celebrated buying my first LBD (Little Black Dress) with this:


Strawberry Shortcake made by my sister Kathy with fresh picked strawberries she bought at the farmer's market, and homemade shortcakes. Yum!  The LBD is for my husband's annual company awards dinner, which up until yesterday I was not going to. But plans change!  Wish me luck on finding black shoes tomorrow...

Oh,yeah--good luck with that. I am not fond of shopping, and that discomfort multiplies when I need to find something that specific!
Shortcake looks yummy!!

I wish you lots and lots of luck. I can never find anything when I need it, but always lots of things when I don't need anything.

Good luck with your shoe shopping adventure. Just between you and me, I'd rather stay home and eat strawberry shortcake. ;) YUM!

Lorraine said...

Yum! Just looking at that shortcake would. Be enough for me to have to buy the next size up LBD! Hope you find some shoes and enjoy the evening out!

Hope you find the perfect heels (if you don't I have about 5 sets of blacks heels here - pop on over if you need to borrow something)

Is it wrong that I want to whip up shortcakes for breakfast now?

I hope the shopping isn't too painful, I do not envy you. But the Strawberry shortcake looks yum! We had fresh from the field while Larry's dad was hear over Christmas...suffering the California temps ~

Way to Celebrate buying a LBD. Have fun and I hope you buy some comfy ones. Life is too short to have shoes that hurt your feet!

If I ate that before wearing my LBD I'd need a girdle! Best of luck with the shoes!!!

Kate said...

Looks yummy! Good luck with the shoe shopping.

That dessert is a great way to celebrate successful LBD shopping. Good luck with the shoes. Hopefully you're not going to be too fussy about heel height or shape of toe. Comfort is definitely my #1 priority with shoes. I HATE shoe shopping.
