Bwahhahaha OMG I die!!!

I've read about Hisano's ring from a while back and asked (more like pounced on & harassed lol?) Hisano to wear it to the Ruckus so I can admire it in person. It was glorious and I'm totally in love with her ring and I have since added that to my on-going PP Wishlist.

If you love something, set it free...if it comes back, it was meant to be! Don't we all love a happy ending! Now, what became of the rest of the bunch of pearls?

Hahahaha! Yes, I remember that story! That would have been quite the gratuity! If I recall, Douglas went back to the hotel and complained. The person who brought the pearls to him worked there. They were stolen from our room.

The version I heard from Doug is even more colorful. His description of the woman who claimed she received these special pearls in exchange for her "personal services" included missing teeth, IIRC.

Douglas has a way with stories. The next time he tells it that maid may have developed a hump

But I still want to know, what became of the rest of the bunch of pearls...once returned.

Somewhere is a photo of the three hands all with purloined pearl rings. My pearl is yellow and my hand isn't in this shot. Thanks for finding this one, though.

A lot of the pearls went into Caitlin's bracelet.

And so now we NEED a photo of Caitlin's bracelet...I knew there was a "back story"!
