Petticoats and Crinolines.
I have 5 crinolines, 4 of them very puffy like the black above and wear them all the time and on all kinds of occasions, ie shopping, to dinner, to the cinema and to walk the dog even. I get looks sometimes, but not really nasty staring, and have quite often gotten compliments on it. I have a...- Drappa

What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?
I just bought it yesterday, and haven' worn it all day but put it on in the evening to test it and it is definitely brighter than any other red I own and does look a tad orange on me. It's almost a coral type red on me. -

Sewing Lessons & FAQ
In case anyone is interested I just wanted to add that I have now taken it in and it worked like a charm. I got ballpoint needles and used the satin foot and an overlock stitch on my machine, and this solved the problem completely. :)- Drappa

Native American table manners, dining etiquette? during First Thanksgiving?
^I didn't know that about him, interesting read. However, I am not convinced that his personal or academic failings mean that there is absolutely no validity to his arguments in regards to the film, although he may be a poor choice for representing them. Neither do I think that his background...- Drappa

Native American table manners, dining etiquette? during First Thanksgiving?
There have been a few Native commentators who were more than critical about "Black Robe", most notably actor Gary Farmer, who called it one-sided, because "Nobody explains the Iroquois Confederacy's five centuries of peace between the six nations. The Hurons saw the devastation from the alcohol...- Drappa

What my grandmother told me about life in the 1940s.
I have a good friend from Canada who lived in a small town and they never locked their doors and always left the keys in the ignition, and this was in the 90's. I remember being amazed at this when she told me. When my mom first started dating my dad in the 70's, he took her to meet the family...- Drappa

Garment Steamers?
Sorry if this has been asked before, I couldn't find it in the search. I was wondering if anyone here uses a garment steamer, and if so, which one is the best to buy? I am beyond tired of having dry cleaners look at my dresses sceptically and tell me I need to sign a risk-form. Some of my...- Drappa
