Have just had real good luck with that with a cotton bra that got a
raspberry down it all day 8-)...
She wore a raspberry buh-ra... ;)
For the stained linen, I heartily recommend a product called Soilove. My
mother-in-law turned me on to it. It's great stuff! I recently used it to take
out
Mine's wearing nothing but a vintage hat at the moment. Ooh la la! :-)
October will be mostly a cooking month for me. I'm in charge of the

Hello, Nancy! Please send it to me -- I'll send it to my sister the
Classics professor. She teaches Latin at Wyoming Catholic College. (Her

she tends to get crazy-busy. :-)
Hope this helps!

My costume-related gift, from my wonderful sister-in-law, was a pair

from 1811-1820...
Thanks!
