Friday was a fun day. I went to my very first meeting with the Red Hat Society!

Ok, let me back up, too. I am not 50 years old. So I cannot be a Red Hatter. (I'm not disappointed, mind you.


I was the only Pink Lady (can I call myself that or is that too "Grease"?) there today, but again, I think that will change when our gatherings begin to happen during the early evening hours. Meanwhile, I am the "Email Female" in the group. That is the lady who is in charge of registering the group and each individual on the official website. Sounds easy enough.
In preparation for the requirement to be in "full dress" for our next gathering, I went out in search of a pink hat today and a lavender dress or skirt/blouse combo. Pant suits are perfectly suitable, too, but as I'm not a pants person, and I am trying to fulfill the role of a "lady" anyway, I am searching for a dress or skirt. I found a lavender blouse I really liked, but not skirt. So I bought a pattern to make a skirt, and I think I will commission my neighbor, a seamstress, to sew it for me. Or I might just find some lovely lavender concoction before our next gathering.
Ok, I have to have a personal name for myself. Every lady is supposed to give herself a name. A play on words with your name. Such as there is one lady whose name is Elaine. Her Red Hatter name is "Miss Elain-eous" (miscellaneous). "Myrtle" may be "Crepe Myrtle". Martha is "Magnificent Martha". etc. So can anyone offer me some catchy name for myself? Something to include "Karla" or my initials "K C" (Casey?) You can use a prefacing name like "Lady", "Miss", "Duchess", etc. I thought about Lady Delicacy (playing off my initials), and although I was thinking of something sweet like candy, cakes, and cookies, I thought maybe that name could easily be misunderstood!
So any ideas for a catchy name? Help me, girls!
I will be sure and take a picture when I am in my full attire next gathering and share it with you all so you can see the latest "Lady in Waiting".

I'm bad at coming up with names... how about Scarlatti?
