Blame it on Earle

We ordered Abbey a cute candy corn costume form Earle's Party Shop in Oklahoma. I was a little worried when our order number was 135. But the website proudly boasted that Earle's had been in business since 1956 or something like that. I even joked about it with friends. The joke was on us when about a week before Halloween we got the costume, only they sent the sleezy candy corn adult costume complete with thigh highs and a garter belt, instead of the cute, sweet candy corn. As it turns out, Abbey is very particular about costumes and not getting the one she ordered was very traumatizing for her. I did call Earle and ask if they could overnight a new costume to us, but alas it did is not get here in time for the big night. She did pull herself together and ended up finding some orange, black and white things in her closet to represent the candy corn. With the candy corn hat from the original costume, she looked sweet. Another crisis averted, but I am still mad at Earle!
