"I don't say that we ought to misbehave, but we ought to look as if we could."Orson Welles
Five things that can give a hint of sauciness to your persona: (I'm too chicken for any of these. I look too well-behaved for my own good. I want some suggestions!)
- Let an animal print camisole peek out accidentally.
- Click down the tiled floor in red stilettos, wearing a mini skirt.
- Dip the brim of a fedora hat with confidence.
- Sweep into a party wearing a full-length fur coat, and survey the crowd over giant sunglasses.
- Do the double cheek, non-touching kiss, kiss, without feeling or looking fake or silly.
These are my feeble efforts at misbehaving:
Dee added a beard and suspenders when he needed to jolt himself from youthful to middle aged with a flare. He's always been a little eccentric naturally, so he's grown into his personality. I'm scared I'm stuck in the young mom phase, well past my prime. There are young people to handle those conversations!
I feel like I've become a sugar cookie without sprinkles. Still sweet, reliable and soft. Just not a standout amongst the highly decorated and frosted choices. Do you have some tips that add spice to your attitude or demeanor, that make you a babe? Or are there others you have observed enviously? I still want to be secretly well-behaved, but I need a tang in my icing, or a secret spice to enhance the basic recipe that is me. Give me some misbehavin' guidance and add a kick to my step!
- I order dessert when nobody else does.
- I drive my car to a meeting only one block away.
- I bravely tell the waiter I don't really like my main course, and he brings me another one.
- I go to Talbots for the 70% off sale, and head straight for the new full-price racks.
- I let the grandkids stay up late and have a movie fest, yet I coax them to take an afternoon nap when I'm sleepy.

what do you think about my post? do you have any idea...
thanks a lot :-)
Mom, I think you're plenty spicy!
I agree with Gab. You're the spiciest Oma I know.
P.S. I like your new fan azliyana.
I think you always look so put together! I know you wouldn't ever do this, but since I was sick last year and wore the wig, I have kept them, just in case I feel like changing my look, when I go somewhere that I won't know anyone. It is actually quite fun!
just wear RED! there's something about it that just feels a little "spicy"!!
If anyone gives you good advice, pass it on. I can't be saucy anymore. I never used to have cleavage, and now that I do - it's wrinkled. Who wants to see that??!!
My legs were never great in a short skirt, and now they are riddled with spider veins. I know, maybe I'll carry a fan with me, and flirt from behind it. What do you think?
