I'm a Kate Beaton fan!

So I'm pretending to be Kate Beaton to better digest a book Alex lent me, it's called Devil in the Windy City, and it tells the true stories about an architect and a serial killer during the Chicago's World Fair in the 1890's. Sounds amazing, right? I average three or so pages before it puts me to sleep.

It was finally getting interesting when the killer claimed his first victim, so I kept reading! Only to find this guy, Frederick Law Olmsted. Who knew someone who has accomplished so much could be so boring. By boring, i mean, interesting?


He wanted so much to be considered an artist.




Kate Beaton's waaaaay better at doing this sort of thing...

sables are the animals that are made into coats.

 here are some sables enjoying some high fashion boas.

let's not forget where high fashion boas come from.

here, the sables inspect for quality.

here, they're taking care of the people.

it's the Big Day!

afterward, the people are sent to retirement where they'll find their favorite foods in the food bins.

a happy hard worker!

a happy customer spruces up for a fancy party

that's all
