Re: Pumpkin Picking

[ Edited ]

I would like to see some outfits for making bank deposits, dental/doctor appointments, visiting the library, the waiting room for auto service, and the line for "grand openings of stores, movies, etc.".....................    These activities are "big deals" for senior citizens.

 

Edited to add:   Outfits for wakes and funerals (but I originally thought that would be too obvious.)

When our children were small, we would get the overpriced pumpkins at the pumpkin farm.  I would also go with their school classes to the pumpkin patch.  Now I buy them at the grocery store, they are bigger and cheaper!  I didn't and don't wear special clothes for that!!


I'm shocked and dismayed... And I'm sure the Q is too...  Woman Very Happy

Please @Desertdi, don't give them any ideas... I mean, aren't things around the old Q-patch bad enough...

With a special emphasis on clothing that is appropriate for particular medical tests. For example, if you're having a CT scan or a bone density scan, if nothing you wear has any metal fasteners or trim on it, you can keep your clothes on and not have to don a hospital gown.

 

But when you do have to get undressed for various exams and tests, pull-on pants and easy pull over your head tops make it go faster.

 

Lightweight clothing is good for when you're getting weighed. Ditto shoes you can easily step out of before stepping on the scale! Definite selling point they're missing.

 

PS I've never been pumpkin picking.

@MissBea  Me either............just heaving one of those pumpkins over the side of the shopping cart is exhausting............not to mention getting it in and out of the car trunk...............

But not so good for jewelry sales--gotta ditch all the big rings, bracelets, and for sure the statement necklace before stepping on the scale!

I didn't watch the show, so have no idea what was said, but seriously, I've never heard a single host say you need a special outfit for pumpkin picking, only that something they are showing would be "appropriate" for that type of activity.  Last I checked, you couldn't go pumpkin or apple picking naked.

Seriously, you have GOT to be a new be here.......lol

Oh, trust me I know they have.  Why on earth people get their knickers in a wad over the suggestion of pumpkin picking is beyond me!

 

I'll take pumpkin picking over ladies who lunch any day Smiley Happy

I watched AM Style this morning and also heard Leah.  She was so cute with her comment about "pumpkin purchasing."  Issac even made a little reference too.  He said something about him just pointing out what kind of  pumpkin he wanted.  He called it "pumpkin pointing" and then he giggled.  Love Isaac!
