Mission #27, Day 2--Baseball Cap
Baseball hats have really been having a moment in fashion for the past year or so. And so what better week to celebrate them than Mission Week?
I thrifted this one a year or so ago because it contains two of my favorite things: New York and pink. Sold.
My parents' birthdays are on Thursday (yep, same day!). I don't plan on seeing my dad, but we are having dinner with my mom tomorrow night. So tonight my daughter and I baked her a cake. From scratch.
I love that my daughter loves to bake with me. She's at the age and ability right now where I don't have to oversee what she's doing. I just have to read the instructions out to her and she can do it by herself. She even cracks eggs like a pro!
In a totally non-sexist way, I am so glad that my daughter is learning these skills. Really I hope all of my kids learn these skills. My mom and grandmother never made anything out of a box. We made everything from scratch. I sincerely didn't even know that you could buy potatoes out of a box (mashed or otherwise) until I was grocery shopping as an adult and it blew my mind.
Not only is it a great skill to learn and an excellent bonding experience, but it teaches kids patience, pride and following directions. My daughter claims that this cake is her best yet. And I think she's right.

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
