It’s Labor Day, one of the MySweetCharity elves’ favorite days. On this day Queenie’s spring/summer closet is replaced by her fall/winter closet. It’s such a happening.
This afternoon the elves all lined the boulevard leading to MSC headquarters as two towering cranes arrived. Like a skilled surgeon, the first crane placed hooks on the vast complex of closets with islands topped with marble, cedar closets, shoe racks and walls of mirrors. After it was hoisted and driven away, the second crane carefully replaced it with its winter counterpart just busting with all types of tiaras, couture gowns with elongated trains and her collection of Ming Dynasty silk robes enhanced by the forbidden stitch.
While all of that was going on, the MSC elves were being fitted by the shoemaker’s elves for their cooler temperature slippers with their cashmere lining and bells on the curved toes that play “Hallelujah Chorus” when a child is born.
As Queenie looked on from her fall/winter throne, the elves celebrated with pancakes. Unlike past years when only risotto pancakes stuffed with Italian White Alba truffles were served, Queenie arranged for s’mores pancakes to be offered for those with a sweet tooth or two.
With regal posture, Queenie looked over the sea of elves and announced, “This year will be the most remarkable in history for fundraising. Let us show respect, honesty and compassion in our coverage. Our goal continues to be to provide ‘a conversation for the good of Dallas.’”
As if planned, the sound of “Hallelujah” jingled throughout. Somewhere a baby had just been born.

Hope Queenie and her Elf King still plan on being my guests for the SPCA of Texas Fur Ball Gala on September 21 at the Omni Hotel. Delicious treats are in store, scintillating conversations, auction items galore, decked-out Humans and much much more!
