While scrolling through a dating site and sipping my morning coffee out of my favorite Lily Pulitzer cup with the gold handle that requires hand washing. A profile of the silver fox I'm waiting for popped up he was handsome he was beautifully dressed he was holding the same Lily Pulitzer Cup At first I thought this was a good omen we might be a match I looked closer and I realized this wasn't real. I ran his photo through Google Lens images and Google Lens did verify that the mug was a Lilly Pulitzer which I already knew. But it said the face was blurred it didn't match it was it was a composite the background was not good it didn't match it was most likely AI generated.

WHAT IS THE “IDEAL“ MAN OR WOMAN?

I've been on these sites long enough to know there's no perfect anybody.

Including me.

But here's what I think the ideal looks like at our age:

Kind. To you, to the waiter, to the dog, and to the ex they don't have to mention on the first date.

Curious about you. They read your profile and ask about something in it, not just "Hi beautiful."

Honest from the start. About their age, their photos, their politics and their faith. Hiding the big things only wastes everyone's time.

Funny. Not perfect teeth or a perfect figure. Someone who can laugh at themselves and make you laugh too.

Present. They put down the phone, show up on time, and follow through on what they say.

Ready. They've done their grieving or their healing, and they want a partner, not a nurse with a purse or a wallet with legs.

Willing to make an effort. A real profile, recent photos, a first message with more than one word.

The ideal person isn't perfect. They're someone who's easy to be with and makes the ordinary days better: a glass of w**e on the porch, a concert, a walk on the beach.

So, what's on your list?

After making tote bags and pouches and purses, for everyone in my universe, I decided I needed a new purse. These Lorelai, ladies in their swimsuits and the main pattern out of soirée just spoke to me. The base fabric is some fuchsia ultra sweet. There’s a pocket on the outside a zipper pocket on the outside and the zipper pouch on the inside. I made this for my Mother’s Day purse to go with my Mother’s Day dress.
The inside pink polkadot pouch with a black-and-white striped zipper. And the lining is my favorite flip-flop fabric. I had this fabric 10 or 12 years ago when I lived in Mexico and everyone I knew received a gift with some piece of this fabric until there was none left. I recently found it on de – STASHING site and I purchased everything she had!

This purse turned into a bucket shape because I was accommodating the beautiful women
