This Meet Miss Subway project is very cool.
It's a great big then and now, which you know we love over here at Everton Terrace.
Click here and take a quick look at the Meet Miss Subways: New York's Beauty Queens 1941-1976.
Recently, I received not one but two fun gifts in the mail from incredibly sweet blog friends.
People I've never met in person, but we share stories and blogs with each other - blog world rocks.
The very talented Gayle, from Two Square Dogs sent my sweet puppy, Tinley, a welcome gift.
How nice is that?!
Look how cool just the envelope was...
She is so creative - even those stamps are her own photographs.
Thanks again Gayle.
My riches continued as the clever and creative Cathy from Stitchfork Designs, sent me a great tote bag with my initials monogrammed on the side - very cool. It's already been on 3 trips to Coronado and the great Seattle to Phoenix road trip! She does beautiful work.
Thanks again Cathy.
I also loved this link Krystal from Village posted last week - inspiring.
Oh I do enjoy my breaks, but blogland is indeed a fun place to be!

LOVE the Miss Subways
project!! Did you pledge?
I am very tempted to as
it seems so worthwhile.
Clearly, YOU are loved,
as well. Sweet gifts for a
sweet lady.
Happy Tuesday!

Just goes to show that beauty can be had at any age. These women are awesome!
Enjoyed all of the reading especially the 'Miss Subways' Etsy coverage (the clothes and accessories are fabulous.) As much as I like to visit New York City I think back in the day it was a more interesting place in which to live!
Such nice gifts from your friends! Love the dog address lable.
I mean label!
I will definitely check it out... Never heard about it before.
That story was so neat! It's great that those women were, and are, celebrated!
Very cool piece on the Miss Subways. It's impressive they did it for as many years as they did.
What a great video, project about Miss Subway.
So glad you and Tinley enjoyed the package. I have always enjoyed decorating the mail I send out (except for bills) I like writing note and letters so I always think the envelope should be part of the surprise.
Your tote bag is lovely !
cheers, parsnip
One of these days Jeanette we will cross paths in person!
Loved the Miss Subways project! Remember the old movie musical "On the Town" with Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly? Weren't they tracking down a Miss Subway?
