for providing me with an award for best costume at work yesterday (or one of the best costumes, anyway).

For weeks, I knew I wanted to dress as Lucy in the Job Switching episode. I found a great red wig (called the Lucy Ball wig!), a chefs hat, bought a white outfit not unlike what she wore in the episode....We sewed some black cloth to the collar (I wanted to look as close as possible to Lucy) ,and found a fake pearl neckace and earing. The best part was stuffing the pockets with Baci chocolates (ok, only 3.The pocket was mostly tissue paper, to make pocket look full) and the sleeves with Baci chocolate. By the end of the day, the chocolate had melted and looked like dog poop, but it was authentic!

I only wished I could have found an Ethel......

Thanks Lucy!
