Dear Miss Katie,
You'll never believe what happened to me today at Mervin's Meretricious Mercantile...I was browsing through the cans and jars, hoping to find a bargain or two...or anything much at all, really, given the current state of the economy, and the scarcity of foodstuffs...when I spied a jar of lovely preserved prunes. I thought it would be just the thing for my Prune-filled BearClaws. (Yes, I know those bears don't give up them claws without a fight, but I always think serving 'em up with some tasty prune filling is so yummy, it's worth the fight!) Anyhoo, I was reachin' for that jar when some NO-GOOD, SHRILL-VOICED HUSSY of a female snuck up behind me, elbowed me outta the way & nipped off with 'em! It happened so fast I didn't even get a LOOK at her! Isn't that the most AWFUL way for a body to do another body? Harrrruuuuuuuumph! I reckon I'll tell Dweebie not to head out looking for a napping bear, as I won't be needin' them claws now. *tsk* And my mouth was just a-waterin' fer 'em, too.
How have YOU been, Dear? I know this hay shortage & price gouging & picket lines & tax raisin' has got you in a snit. Not only is it impossible to get hay for our mounts, but a lady of your occupation must surely count on gettin' them bolts o' fancy fabric in to work with, and I suspect they aren't arriving like they useta. It's just a mess, innit...purely a MESS, I tell ya! Drivin women to shovin' & grabbin', an' all........
I swear, I don't know WHAT Mohicanland is comin' to!!
Would you like to drop by later for a cuppa tea. I've still got some in the cupboard, and should be able to get PLENTY more, cuz I just know that those bloody Yengeese would never go taxin' THAT! They wouldn't dare! And there are still a few huckleberries left from last week's dreadful escapade in the woods...enough to make a berry tart or two for us. Do come over...it would be a treat to sit and visit with you a spell!
Yours Most Graciously,
Miss Marcia
