Busy weekend

Friday - visitation at Contentment chapter in Dedham.

Saturday - shoppingses. Help me fight temptation re: whether I "need" this dress from Nordstrom Rack. It's changeable pink and grey silk, it's more than 50% off, it's a sz 12!





Saturday night - dinner at Gargoyles with [livejournal.com profile] learnedax and [livejournal.com profile] cat9, then onward to the Steeleye Span concert. (OMG The first time I saw them perform was in 1986 at Nightstage.) Ran into many people we knew from many contexts - the McANultys, the Traites, Marsy's mom, a colleague of [livejournal.com profile] jducoeur's uncle Bob. We stayed and got Maddy and Peter to autograph the booklet of the new CD.

Sunday - apple picking on an utterly perfect autumn day. What a fabulous tradition!!

Late afternoon - while [livejournal.com profile] judcoeur got the new mailbox installed, I hauled the old dead freezer out to the curb for the city appliance recycling pickup.

Just to be clear, we're supposed to be talking you out of the fabulous dress?

That is beautiful.

It's a lovely fabric but I really don't like the ruffle detail on the bodice. It fights with the natural line of the bust instead of enhancing it. It's even managing to make that very shapely model look a bit short-waisted and over-endowed, which I seriously doubt is the case.
