Doppelganger

You guys, I have something so funny to show you. First, I must share a bit of a back story. I have never found a "doppelganger" for myself- you know, the actress that sort of looks like me, or just another person that other people say reminds them of me. Which is ok, I guess I'm just unique, but it is kind of fun to get an idea of what other people see when they look at you!

So the other day, my sister was over and we were having coffee together, just standing in the kitchen and chatting. I had my new JoAnne's catalogue sitting on the counter, since we were planning to go there later to get some craft supplies. Suddenly, Elsie gives a gasp and tries to grab the catalog off the counter, but it fell on the floor. I laughed because I thought she was gasping because she dropped it. But no, she was gasping because of this:


Do you see what I see? Oh look! It's me modeling some hand-knit mittens and a jaunty cap! Just kidding. It's not actually me. For those of you who don't know me well enough to see the resemblance, here's a photo that should help:


Is that not a little strange? And even a bit creepy? Somewhere out there is a JoAnne's model that looks exactly like me....

  1. I'm pretty sure that the picture is of you and you have just forgotten that you used to model mittens. Maybe in your drinking days?

  2. Ha! That's so funny! Maybe a sign that you should go into the mitten modeling business. You'd obviously do well ;-)

    My sister also almost NEVER gets the 'you look just like _____ ' comments, and it bugs her, too, because she always wants to know who people think she looks like. And when she does get the occasional celebrity, it tends to be someone she doesn't think is pretty. Ha.

  3. You are so cute! And yes I see the resemblance but I do think you're much prettier!
