I love this picture! Wow! I'm making this my backround on my compurter!
EmilyAnn Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 I'm not going for a community that does the whole wedding dress thing but I think it's an avvesome practice. Though my nuns have their rings engraved with their monastic names and 'Jesus' which I just love - it definitely appeals to the romantic in me.
EmilyAnn Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Camo is ugly. My housemate is into airsoft and when he hasn't been to a game in a while he tends to dress up in camo and sit in the living room and pretend to shoot everyone who walks past. At least I know that I'll be wearing a flattering colour (black) for the rest of my life.
Strictlyinkblot Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Black is very slimming. And it doesn't show the stains like the Dominican habit.
LadyOfSorrows Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 [quote name='Chiquitunga' timestamp='1332356081' post='2404801'] Yay! Now they can be added to the list .. Also the O.Carm [url="http://web.archive.org/web/20080511202521/http://www.fargodiocese.org/Vocations/carmelmary/"]Carmel of Mary[/url] (scroll down), though they wear it at First Profession .. and by the way, I notice differing from the discalced, they take the black veil then. Also they have a new site now, [url="http://www.fargodiocese.org/Vocations/carmelmary/"]http://www.fargodioc...ons/carmelmary/[/url] [/quote] Carmel of Mary in North Dakota doesn't have that tradition anymore. They discontinued it a few years ago, I believe.

[/quote] Ah yes, but you cannot bleach black..... and surprisingly, white shows relatively little... though it could be because spot cleaning white is so simple. Sorry.... hopeless Dominican fan.
Carmelshrimp Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 At least Carmelite brown doesn't show the coffee stains. Or melted chocolate. Speaking of chocolate.....

[/quote] I moaned to friend about lack of chocolate. "Offer it up" she said, helpfully. Felt tempted to say I'd like to have some to be ABLE to offer it up, but felt she'd think I was being facetious. As if I would!

Carmelshrimp Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Only if they're covered in chocolate. Don't really do cute and fluffy - it's my nasty cynical nature showing itself I expect.
AnneLine Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) would you consider... chocolate point siamese?

AnneLine Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 I always loved the comment in The Nun' Story that the nuns in the Congo looked like siamese cats when lined up for their showers. Yup... I can see that.
