Saturday Question of the Day

Every Saturday I'll try to come up with some "out there" question that just makes you stop and think about something not so important. Think of it as a mini vacation. If you have any ideas drop me a line and we'll throw it in here. Who knows, it might be fun.

OK - Here goes:

In honor of Carnival of the Jammies I thought about what my favorite pair of jammies were as a kid.

That was almost too easy. The were black leggings with a really cool animal print top. They were the bomb. Mom could hardly get me out of them. I wanted to wear them everywhere. One day we were at the local department store and I saw a lady wearing something very similar with a very cool pair of black sandles and I was livid. "Mommy - why does SHE get to wear her PJ's out in public and I can't?" Yeah, I never really did get that whole idea that some times you just CAN'T say exactly what's on your mind.

So.....what were your favorite jammies like as a child?

I hated them. Still do.
loose shorts and a t-shirt.

About 140 yrs ago, when I was a child...
they made Halloween costumes out of flannel, that doubled as 'jammies' once the holiday was over.
Mine was a white gown style that fell past my knees. Across the chest was embroidered
"A Little Angel".
As a costume, it wasn't much, but I remember the warmth & comfort sleeping in it.

Flannel nightgown. Red plaid with granny neck. Very warm and cozy.

O.M.G ! That was such a great question! I was talking on the phone with my mother, and she reminded me that I loved my "Rupert the Bear" jammies so much that I'd cry when they went in the laundry. Poor Rupert...

I'm as Kat... flannel, granny nightgown, red checked. I think I even had a hat. LOL! Probably why I like my Man's Flannel Shirt so much. Still keeps me toasty, but I can at least move in the damn thing!
