The Grimace Dress...



No, I am not here to ponder what Grimace is. Probably because I had that question answered through extensive online research. OK, so I stumbled on it. Did you know that Grimace is supposed to represent milkshakes?
That marketing guy surely got fired back in 1972.

What about grimace resembles a milkshake? He kind of looks like a fat purple teardrop, I will give you that. Did McDonald's sell grape milkshakes back then?
If so they were long gone by the late 70s, but they left Grimace right there on all the McDonald's marketing campaigns for the world to ponder his purpose.

My point in mentioning Grimace is a particular summer dress I have. It is from the Gap and is actually really comfy, though it almost looks more like a housecoat than a dress. It has an empire waist and is a bright purple gauze material. It is great to wear in the summer when it is hotter than hell and you can't imagine what would keep you from sweating like a pig. Mr. W hates it. I let him know he will be seeing a lot more of it than he would like this summer.

You see, because of the style, I will be able to cram myself and growing Baby W into this dress while I am growing to offensive proportions in the heat of the summer. Mr W already calls this my Grimace dress, but he ain't seen nothin yet.
