Cheeky Actress

My Petty Annoyances is the lack of common manners in this country. I grew up as a military brat (Air force) and the one thing that my mother ingrained in me as a child is ‘common courtesy” such as, ‘please’, ‘thank-you’…and so on. So, no matter where we lived...we would not be known as those "Ugly Americans". I find it difficult to believe that these basics are becoming extinct! Yesterday, I popped into the Grocery store to pick up some milk and bread. As the teller handed me my changed I said, ‘thank-you.’ All I got in return was a blank stare…as she continued to chew her gum like a cow. Oh…the youth of American….be afraid people…be very afraid!!!

Received the numbers from this past weekend's event at the Milwaukee Art Museum. Sylvia Peine, the Event Coordinator for the Children's Events said, The Number was 2,326! I’ve had a few events with that many people.....It was definitely YOU! Congrats Archangel Crew....a bit of Rum is in order, right Captain?

Typing...stuff...you know...words too.

You're most welcome, Captain.

Well, Matty did have help from the children, Captain.

Hmm...well then, after seeing that...are you still up for it Mission?

Yes...Yes Patrick! Pensic is the place to see woad...painted on just about every inch of someone's body. My brother-in-law has the title of 'the Little Woaden Boy'. I don't know if he is happy with that title or not, but the very word little can make a man who is only 5'2" tall feel very self-conscience. I know I have a picture of him all 'woaden up'...Gee, I wonder if my sister would let me post it? The movie that you're looking for Mission is 'King Arthor' - 2004 - a Woad Guinevere (Keira Knightley).

Here's a few more...sorry for the poor quality of photos though. Diver Jamie, Sylvia and Shipmate Diane Diver Jamie with Matty and the kids Bess was extremely happy to know that they were giving babies away that day. Look! She found one she liked...though the baby doesn't know what to make of Bess?! Thanks to John and Sylvia, we had a really wonderful layout and display area! And after all that fun with the Kids...Bess even helped clean up!

We got a visit from the Lord Mayor Bess promised the Captain she'd keep all the crewe in line that day...some more than others! Billie and his woman (Gwen) posing - I think she's trying to remind Gunner to eat?! Gunner Beach with 'the French Poodle More to come!!!

Just a few choice shots from the Milwaukee Art Museum Event - Matty Bottles helps read clues aloud for the Treasure Hunt Merchant Mary signing another child to our ranks! Matty Bottles decides he needs a Parrot or maybe a McCaw to wear upon his shoulder. Showing the kids a Letter of Marque

The Crewe of the Archangel - Family Sunday Event at the Milwaukee At Museum To the Crewe Members who showed up at the Milwaukee Art Museum (MAM) - A HUGE Thank you to all of you. Sylvia Peine, the Event Coordinator of Children’s Events was very happy and extremely please regarding our turn out and our interaction with the visiting children. Everyone one jumped in and did what they do best! Billie and Gwen entertained the children with ‘the French Poodle’, Matty Bottles charmed the kids by making art project with them then led them on the great treasure hunt! Merchant Mary made sure that our crewe grew in numbers yesterday as she helped signed up as many children as we could and made them “legal Pyrates”. Diver Jamie and Shipmate Diane played and interacted with the children with questions and coins. Even Bess made sure that the kids were welcomed with big smiles and even helped take pictures of the various families with the Archangel Crewe. You all should be very proud of yourselves. You worked hard and played hard. I have not heard the numbers for this event yet, but Sylvia did mention this was the biggest March Family Sunday event that they have had in quite some time. My cap is off to you all!

Well it is a coffee shop, so the Kahlua is not an option. There are flavorings out there that give the taste, but not the alcohol...shamefull but true...

How about Kahlua, dark chocolate, and Cherry

And for you who really want your coffee done right...

Great Article! This lovely little item will come in handy! I am sure that there can be several different variations on this look…I would do it in silver with black accents.
