What do do with a pregnant Baroness?
A few of these are creeping out of our period, but at least there's a start.....

I've been so LAME!
Grrr! My LJ has been terribly neglected lately, and for that I sincerely apologize! I need to find my cord to download the pictures I took at 12th Night, but until then, here's a sneak peek from the night before (my, Bertha is a lucky gal!)
Mistress Jaquelinne looked fabulous! There was a lovely spread of nibbles and all things delicious. Like the scatterbrained spaz I am, I forgot to pick up some dressing pins, so the partlet had to be safety pinned in place (but wose things could have happened, I suppose)
The ceremony was lovely, and the day was an all-'round smashing success. Wheeee!
***
(Side note - I also ended up winning BGL A&S - who woulda thunk it?! I completely spaced off taking any pictures of the display - but I ended up raiding my garb closet and pulling out pretty much any hat I'd made over the last couple of years and displaying them on heads (provided by Susan - THANK YOU!!!) I covered them in different colors of wool to make them more....palatable. It actually turned out quite nice for a last-second thing. To flesh out the display, I put out hubby's handsewn linen and wool tunics, the saffron dyed veil, and the blackwork sampler from umpteen million years ago.)
