thought that I'd pass it along in case it hadn't been seen by other folk
around here. I haven't looked at the site yet myself, as their front
page was a little racier than I wanted to have on my screen at work, but
she tells me that they have a good selection of clothing for plus-sized
women.

That's funny, my complaint is always the opposite, in that it's hard for me
to find clothing to fit my monstrous bosom.

Yeah, one of my other friends mentioned when looking at the site that
all the models on it were quite endowed in the chest. I still haven't
looked at the site myself. I've known quite a few large women who
weren't particularly large-breasted who had similar complaints.

Perhaps the complaint in general should be amended to read, "Too many
clothing designers don't view breast size as an independent variable."?

Being somewhat modestly endowed in the bosoms dept., I've learned to
suss out which tops will look good on me even when they are shown on
women with bigger boobs.
My problem with the sizeappeal site is that they don't seem to say
anywhere what the clothing is made out of.
(No criticism intended to you for posting it, If.)

Yeah, the grass is always greener on the other side, isn't it?

models do not have a ounce of fat on them which makes a confusing
statement.

I've never found that men in catalogues were large even in catalogues
for men's clothing.
Many companies have experimented with having larger models in the past,
but it seems that it hurts their sales to do so. I'm not sure how much
obligation they have to take reduced sales in stride on the principle of
the thing, especially when reduced sales would seem to send the message
that most of their customers don't care.
Eva Whitley
You know the Brylane Corp. (Lane Bryant, Roaman's, and some Big & Tall
company) makes this claim all the time, but I've never seen any
supporting justification of it: what city the test was done in, what
year, what styles of clothing, etc. (There used to be a chain called 16
Plus that had a token fat model in their catalog and they put her in the
most god awful ugly bulletproof polyester thing. Hardly a fair test, and
this was in the early 80s.)
I have been getting Lane Bryant/Roaman's catalogs from 1979 to a few
years ago (it took years after my last order for them to finally take
the hint) and I will tell you I never saw a fat woman in any of them.
Which means *if* they did their experiment, it was pre-1979. Gosh, fat
acceptance wouldn't have had any effect since then, would it?
Now, I do believe this claim from Just My Size which used to use large
models but the last time I saw one of their catalogues they had regular
models. But Junonia seems to do just fine with larger models.
I do seem to remember one Big & Tall catalogue using professional
athletes (basketball and American football) as models. Maybe it got too
expensive?

4 thin slices of smoked ham, and Gruyere cheese
Flour
eggwash (milk and eggs)
seasoned bread crumbs
1 onion
minced
salt
pepper
butter
olive oil
Pound the breasts flat (parboil first if using umbilical
cords so they won?t be tough).
Place a slice of ham and cheese on each, along with some minced onion
then fold in half, trimming neatly.
Dredge in flour, eggwash, then seasoned breadcrumbs;
allow to sit for a few minutes.
Sauté in butter and olive oil until golden brown,
about 6 minutes on each side.
Shish Kababes
As old as the hills, this technique has employed seafood, beef, pork, lamb,
poultry, and vegetables; just about anything can be grilled, and young humans
are no exception!
High quality marinade (Teriyaki and garlic perhaps)
1 inch cubes of tender meat, preferably from the nursery
Onions
bell peppers
Wooden or metal skewers
Marinate the meat overnight.
Get the grill good and hot while placing meat, vegetables, and
fruit such as pineapples or cherries on the skewers.
Don?t be afraid to use a variety of meats.
Grill to medium rare,
serve with garlic cous-cous and sautéed asparagus.
Coffee and sherbet for desert then walnuts, cheese, and port.
Cigars for the gentlemen (and ladies if they so desire)!
Crock-Pot Crack Baby
When the quivering, hopelessly addicted crack baby succumbs to death,
get him immediately butchered and into the crock-pot, so that any
remaining toxins will not be fatal. But don?t cook it too long,
because like Blowfish, there is a perfect medium between the poisonous
and the stimulating. Though it may not have the same effect on your
guests, a whole chick

I get one men's clothing catalog that uses some men who are slightly on
the large side. I'm not remember its name at the moment though.

Stir-fry the vegetables.
Put the meat back into the wok and adjust the seasoning.

Deep fry in peanut oil till crispy golden brown, drain on paper towels.
Lemon Neonate
Turkey serves just as well, and in fact even looks a bit like a
well-dressed baby. By the time you turn the child?s breast into

different depending upon what he or she has consumed during its
10 to 14 months of life...

Stillborn Stew
By definition, this meat cannot be had altogether fresh,
but have the lifeless unfortunate available immediately after delivery,
or use high quality beef or pork roasts (it is cheaper and better to
cut up a whole roast than to buy stew meat).
1 stillbirth, de-boned and cubed
¼ cup vegetable oil
2 large onions
bell pepper
celery
garlic
½ cup red wine
3 Irish potatoes
2 large carrots
This is a simple classic stew that makes natural gravy,
thus it does not have to be thickened.
Brown the meat quickly in very hot oil, remove and set aside.
Brown the onions, celery, pepper and garlic.
De-glaze with wine, return meat to the pan and season well.
Stew on low fire adding small amounts of water and
seasoning as necessary.
After at least half an hour, add the carrots and potatoes,
and simmer till root vegetables break with a fork.
Cook a fresh pot of long grained white rice.
Pre-mie Pot Pie
When working with prematurely delivered newborns (or chicken) use sherry;
red wine with beef (buy steak or roast, do not pre-boil).

Lettuce

Marinate the fetuses in the egg-mustard mixture.

One can easily adapt this recipe to ham, though as presented,
it violates no religious taboos against swine.
