| "As decreed by the Cucumber!" Watercolor - Queen of Howktown adapted from Coloring book shared with a 5 year old. |
As Queen of Howktown, one of my favorite duties is the decree. I find it quite fullfilling to make announcements and then sign off 'as decreed by _____'. It makes me silly happy.
Why, just last week I brought in a big ol' bowl of watermelon to work and decreed that it was for one and all! Though, actually, I took a picture that I had colored (with my niece) of a cucumber dressed up as king and had him decree it. It was his turn.
Anyhow. It got me in the mood to declare a few more things that I feel need to be mentioned. For example, I decided that the Czarina of Saarisburg Totally Wears Hats. Why? Well, you know the Target Ad? The one where she decides she totally wears hats? That's what Kylie and I did at Target before we even saw that ad... with the SAME HAT that is in the commercial. She totally wears hats. I totally wear hats. In fact, I decree that on October 2nd... WE ALL totally wear hats.
I have also decided it is The Year of Hotel Stays, Iowa Road Trips = Tornadoes, and Almonds are Awesome. (I think I might make Oct 1st Grey Goose Martini Appreciation Day, as well)
