Caroline became friends with Eileen and myself after Eileen purchased one of her “two more pockets” invention where you can wear the accessory  (see above) and have your hands free once  you have stuffed your stuff inside.  Eileen wore her’s to the farmers’ market last Friday, so Caroline, a normally joyful person, jumped up and down and clapped her hands when she spotted Eileen.  “Look everyone,” she exclaimed to the customers who were in the booth.    Caroline, who loves to interact with everyone walking by,  was telling some folks about the many versions, but I thought she said “many virgins.”

“Oh no,” she laughed, “I’m Swedish, and my English isn’t perfect.”    Well, it turns out that this tall Swedish model does speak perfect English.  She, her husband and children often appear in advertisements where perfect families are required, and Caroline has pictures from those photo shoots displayed in her booth.

A standing joke at Caroline’s display is that she constantly tells people about her web site, but there’s one problem—it doesn’t exist yet. But she thinks that’s the funniest thing and she promises it will happen soon.

If you want to purchase one of her fabulous “hands-free solutions” you can email her at:   Carolineerlandson@yahoo.com.  They cost $32.00.  So far, she doesn’t have extra large ones that would fit many men, but she is working on that.

SOUNDTRACK:   “Ain’t Cha Glad?” from the soundtrack of  the motion picture  The Aviator, by David Johansen   (He is a vocalist with the band New York Dolls:)
