More 90s

I'm talking BSC right here. I loved The Baby-Sitters Club. Like, read a few in one day loved. I wish I still read several books a day that I actually enjoy instead of agonizingly trying to fit in reading I book I don't even want to read into my already hectic week. I've never liked children, but damn it, Ann M. Martin had me believing that being a baby-sitter would be the raddest gig around. I always liked Stacey because she was a New York City transplant in Stoneybrook. I sort of liked Dawn too, and had a brief stint cheating on the BSC with the marginally-racy California Diaries that focused around Dawn and her CA group of friends.

What Claudia Wore is this awesome blog that includes excerpts of the series regarding the details of what my grade school heroines wore. Those of you who feel like you need to fill a certain BSC-specific void in your life (like myself) will be way into it.

The Original: Kristy's Great Idea. What's that? Are those houndstooth pants that I see? And some kind of yellow and red printed overalls? Even while less exciting than Claudia and Stacey's get-ups, there's something to be said about Mary Anne's (denim?) jumper and knee socks.

On a note unrelated to childhood, Stephanie of Modern Antoinette has tagged me!

1. Respond and rework: answer the questions on your blog, replace one question that you dislike with a question of your own invention, add one more question of your own.

2. Tag eight other un-tagged people. Eight seems ridiculous!
