HOW TO BE A "FANCY NANCY"

My daughter has this book, and I simply cannot gush enough about it. It is an adorable children's book about a little girl that is "fancy", and wants everyone around her to be "fancy" too. She uses the French term for just about everything because that's the fancy way to say it. She wholeheartedly believes lacy socks improve her soccer game, and that writing with a pen that has a fuschia (thats "fancy" for purple) plume on it helps her write better. Now this is my kind of chick!

I simply love the message of individuality this book conveys, and I had an idea. This is my Fancy Nancy Kit. Yours would probably be different, but that's the point.


Of course, you can't be fancy without a boa.

It can be pink (probably my choice) or purple, or green or whatever. You just need a boa.

The second Essential to being fancy is an appropriately gaudy hat. This is a must. The more ribbons and feathers, the better!

The third thing you simply must have is ribbons, and lots of them. Tie them to everything you can. More is always better when you're rying to be fancy.

The fourth absolute essential to being fancy is a tiara. Of course. Need I elaborate?


Now, to write, you of course need a pen with the most wonderful plume possible. Writing with a regular Bic pen just isn't fancy, and who doesn't want to be fancy?

And finally to eat... what else but parfaits (that's fancy for sundaes)

Now you have seen what I think it takes to be fancy. What do you think it takes to be FANCY?!?
