It's January 1, 2021: Happy New Year's Day, everyone!
Here are the girlettes on New Year's Eve at the backyard bonfire last night. Penny Cooper may have become a little tipsy from the champagne (prosecco) fumes. She is wearing the bottle's wire hood.
L to R: Penny Cooper, Eeble, and Spike. Standing, in the white sweater, is new Tall Doll.
The character of
Miss Clavel was a nurse at Madeline's boarding school in Paris, but this
doll is not that. (And none of the girlettes is Madeline. "She lives in London with Racer," they say).
I wasn't sure Tall Doll'd be okay here, but she seems to be.
I'm not even sure why I got her--she came with a girlette (the new Noodle, below).
The first thing she did was cut her hair and her dress, which looked
like a nun's habit. She turned out to be much younger than
"marketed"---maybe mid-teens?
We don't know yet, but Tall Doll might be the girlettes' older
cousin?
(Not that they are sisters to one another; they share the
mysterious relationship of being "Orphan Reds".)
So, this has been my first post of 2021. It looks like 2021 may be much like 2020: FULL OF DOLLS.
Yay!
