OH MY GOD! I just realized that it’s time to tell you about Sept’s calendar photo … but then I realized that I forgot to do Aug!! What is wrong with me?? I think I am doing too many things at once. I need a clone.Â
So let’s start with Aug. Whenever I make Lentil soup I sing the song “Poppa can you see me” only I change the lyrics to “Poppa can you feed me?” Get it? Lentil/Yentl. I know. I know. It’s a dorky joke but it makes me laugh …
We didn’t quite get the “looking up to heaven” look that Barbra is doing … but I was in a bad mood (about something I can’t remember) and the last thing I wanted to do was take photos that day. Now looking at it – I wish I had just gotten over myself and spent a little bit more time channeling my inner Barbra.
“Barbra can you see me??…”
Sept’s photo is hilarious. If you’re a thrift store junkie like I am – then you come across this Herb Alpert album in every single store.
I LOVE this era of album art. Scantily clad woman doing bizarre things that have nothing to do with the content of the LP. I wasn’t sure how I was going to cover myself in whip-cream …. but then I took a long hard look at the album and realized that she’s mostly covered in cotton batting. So I hit up my local fabric store and then to the dollar store for some shaving cream. Yup. Shaving cream. I figured shaving cream wouldn’t melt or be sticky and I was right. It worked perfectly!
I tried my best to give a “come hither – licking my finger” look … but that is soooo not my thing so instead we did “cheeky” in which which I’m an expert. The hardest part about this shoot was keeping Fergus away from me. He desperately wanted to sit in my lap … poor poodle.
I can’t believe it’s Sept already… wow. The Summer of Sarah has been so epic and fun. I don’t want it to end yet!!
