Gone Fishing

Well actually gone burning. I’m off to Burning Man today. No posts from me for at least a week and a half. The Purchasing/Props Department might manage to do a “Behind the Scenes” post. The Purchasing/Props Department will also be moderating comments, since I will be computer and phone free for the next week or so. Three cheers for off the grid!! The barbies are packed and raring to go.  )’(

About that soon-to-appear donate button

My purchasing department has been bankrupting herself because she can’t resist an opportunity to supply me with props (born to shop).  I have finally insisted that we put a donate button on the site to help cover prop costs. The donate button is for her. If you feel like tossing a few bucks into the pot to pay her back for all of those crazy props, please do so. No obligation.  The prop train will never stop. I am resigned to that. My posts would have even more cardboard and masking tape if it weren’t for the imagination, shopping fervor, and eBay savvy of my purchasing department.  My husband keeps threatening to send her his wish list if I keep getting little packages in the mail.

Some posts that are in the works

Between Burning Man prep and Shannon’s unexpected death throwing me off-stride, I’m now behind on my posting schedule. However, that is not to say that I haven’t been working on ideas. There are several things in the works. I’m listing a few of the more well-formed ideas for which I have props and a general storyline.  Those include:

Jessica Beehive’s reality show

Sarah’s turkey pardoning

The Fisherman and his Wife, a Grimm’s fairy tale as told by one of my fans

Another leg of Sarah’s bus tour

The Pella BBQ

Other ideas I’m kicking around include recreating the hilarious cover on Levi Johnston’s upcoming book, Sarah’s reaction to Joe’s upcoming book, another segment of Bristle’s “reality” show, a smackdown between Sarah, Michele, and Rick, and Sarah’s hot-air balloon event.

Hopefully, September will be a productive month, with many of these ideas coming to fruition. Thanks for your patience.
