Princess Brides

At the Princess Breakfast this morning, there were Snow White, Mary Poppins (who is not usually considered a princess, but who knows?), Belle, Jasmine, and Princess Aurora (Sleeping Beauty).

The amusing thing is, of course, that just as the kids have their favorites (assuming they do -- Kitten is still just coming to recognize some of the figures), so do the adults.

So, just to play a probably improper game ... which princess would be my favorite?

... well, I've never actually watched Sleeping Beauty, so Aurora is probably out of the competition. Besides, I need someone who is willing to wake up early with Kitten, at least every other Saturday.

Snow White never struck me as anything special. I mean, sure, great domestic skills and all, but a bit too Betty Boop brainless, if y'know what I mean. Lovable, but not a lot of lights on in the attic.

Mary Poppins is right out. She would intimidate the hell out of me.

Jasmine? Well, she's definitely the looker of the bunch, especially in that outfit. She's spirited, if sometimes spoiled. But, really, not much to relate to there.

Yeah. If I were gonna set my sights on one of the princesses, it would have to be Belle. She smart, pretty, independent, and likes to walk along with a book in her hand. What's not to like? Well, aside from being torn to bits by her husband, of course, but, well, this is a thought exercise only, and I'd be in a lot bigger danger from Margie than from the Beast.

And, come to think of it, Margie is smart, pretty, independent, and smart enough to sit down when she reads, so it looks like I chose pretty well.

If Mary Poppins had been a horror film, the trailer for it would have looked a lot like "Scary Mary" -- which is recut/remixed from actual Mary Poppins footage.... ...
