Albrizio- wow. I have a friend who still makes hand blocked hats. She’s part of a milliner’s society in mid-town. She once made a miniature top hat on a tiny hatblock she carved herself. I’m not sure who she apprenticed with, though. I always thought of milliners as sculptors really. I used to have some antique hats that were works of art. (Dead birds and kittens embellishments notwithstanding). Your sister sounds awesome.
CGar…it was a beautiful $5.5 Million BH home!!!!

CGar- I once bought him 10 boxes as a birthday gift. Guy is rail thin, eats like a horse. Doesn’t share Mallomars well 🙂
The post office hires temp workers for the holidays. Presumanbly they don’t get double time and a half for working weekends.

There’s a milliner in provincetown who has a store called the Mad Hatter. Pretty talented.
