Someone asked me today what my next adventure is going to be. I haven't done anything unusual since June. What's the cause?

Shall I be SUPER bold and make a proposal???? 
How about we Farmgirls make a calendar with proceeds to go to the Red Cross? We could take the pics next summer at FarmFair!!! Maybe MaryJane will volunteer to be the photographer? (Don't want gb to have a heart attack!   )
How's that for brave? (and look ma, no vodka! )

LOVE IT CLARE!!!!! I'll pack some of my homegrown catawba wine for bravery!!!! Let's take the pics at the plum pit around that cute iron bed, and have the girls at the farm round up some cute guys from the university there at Moscow for backdrop props, wearing their alls or jeans, no shirts and a hard days layer of sweat and dirt. ( Or...some of the farmguy staff at the farm will suffice!)  Naughty me..... (Blushing)

I am wearing very large leafed plants in strategic places girls. Maybe some BIG sunflowers??? No matter how hot it is, or how much wine I injest, at age 49 I ain't gonna bare it all... wouldn't at 19 either.

You guys are KILLING me here..HAHAH
how did this thread slip by me until today??!
I saw a great calendar last year by a group of spinners who wuzn't wearin' nuttin' but wool mittens,hats, scarves that they made themselves...www.wearingwool.com...went to the site and it simply says:"Celebrating the ancient art of spinning and the ageless beauty of women. This project exceeded its expectations and we have all gone back to our fiber-art activities...
Nevermore...
Gonzo..."
It was so beautiful.......
uh, I'd do one in an apron, bib type, sittin' down, maybe

Ohhhh, BlueEggBabe, that reminds me of one of my fav Garth Brooks songs, "standing on the porch with nothing but her apron on".... that's a PERFECT idea for posing, isn't it? We could get really creative, I'm sure!!!

Maybe we can get Mary Jane to wear our decorated apron and nuttin' else? No, wait, I can't work on decorating it with that in my head...
And the only way this old broad is gonna pose is if she can wear her Sock Monkey flannel pj's..... |

What a hoot! I wasn't expecting this when I clicked on gardening calendars! I did love the movie that inspired this thread but somehow I can't see MJ going for this one??? LOL Not sure if I'd pose or not, but I'd sure buy one or two!!!
I'm not 40 something, I'm 39.95 plus shipping and handling! |

Farmgirls and guys, my calendar arrived! It is beautiful, and funny and also touching. I was starting to describe each month and my computer glitched, so I'll just summarize it by saying: this is worth every penny. So tastefully produced with excellent photos and a ton of humor and compassion. Don't hesitate to place your order!

| I just went and ordered the Au Naturel calendar and had it shipped to my new house. It will be my first official piece of mail sent there. Small, conservative Tennessee town...hope it comes in a plain brown wrapper! I love the idea for the calendar...don't think I could pose, but I would love to help somehow...maybe do some scrapbook layouts to set the photos in. Can I add to the list? John Corbitt from Northern Exposure (I miss that show!). He was also in "Raising Helen". And, believe it or not, Jerry Orbach (Law and Order, the dad in "Dirty Dancing") just DID something to me. I am 43 and he still made me think baaaaad thoughts. |
