[b]Speaking of gifts…[/b]
“`It's a cravat, child, and a beautiful one, as you say. It's a present from the White King and Queen. There now! …They gave it me,' Humpty Dumpty continued thoughtfully…’they gave it me -- for an un-birthday present.'
`I beg your pardon?' Alice said with a puzzled air…. `I mean, what is an un-birthday present?'
`A present given when it isn't your birthday, of course.'
Alice considered a little. `I like birthday presents best,' she said at last.
`You don't know what you're talking about!' cried Humpty Dumpty. `How many days are there in a year?'
`Three hundred and sixty-five,' said Alice.
`And how many birthdays have you?'
`One.'
`And if you take one from three hundred and sixty-five what remains?'
`Three hundred and sixty-four, of course.'
Humpty Dumpty said gaily…`That shows that there are three hundred and sixty-four days when you might get un-birthday presents….'”

[b]All Doll Items Are Welcome Here
We Are Grateful for Any Donations![/b]
Greetings! August 12-14, 2010, Ellowyne’s Ennui board will be holding its second annual retreat weekend. We will gather to celebrate all dolls, though of course our Ellowyne will be the guest of honor at this Twisted Fairy Tales themed event.
We want to hand out many unbirthday presents!
So we are currently in search of donated dolly things for gifts and prizes. We would like table gifts, which would be a set of 21 items, one for each person. We would also appreciate nice door prizes. Your name or company name will be listed among our sponsors on the retreat Web site and program: an advertising bonus for you! Our participants will love seeing the wonderful craftwork and generous spirit of their fellow doll collectors. And you will be gaining enthusiastic new customers and friends.
