Pandora’s Sewing Box

This was written in 2017 originally and is now being recycled for Fandango’s Flashback Friday!

Prior to Wilhelmina Williams’ passing, she’d given her daughter, Pandora, an heirloom sewing box. She cautioned her never to open it, for according to legend, doing so would unleash a global, butt-ugly fashion trend.

Pandora gave a rat’s ass for neither fashion, nor butt-ugliness.

Hence, when mom assumed room temperature, Pandora opened the sewing box. Out tumbled a mangled thimble and polyester leisure suits attacked the world.

    I think I had one of those in the same color. A sort of lime green.

      I think a lot of men did. That color was popular at one point.

      I wonder that very thing, Violet. What on earth did we find attractive about polyester leisure suits?
