As if the Wooden Shoes were not odd enough....

From time to time we haul a bunch of stuff down to the on line auction place and try to get rid of it.  This is a modestly successful strategy for "stuff reduction", one that works so long as you don't at the same time buy other people's things. 

While we were dropping stuff off something caught the eye of my Better Half.  She wanted a picture to send to a dear friend of hers, a woman for whom the saying "If you ain't Dutch, you ain't much" is a code to live by.  Mayhaps she needs a set of ceramic Dutchies smooching.  As if she does not in all probability have a phalanx of these in her garden already.

But I Comply.  And in my close up noticed something odd...

Little Dutch Boy is wearing more eye shadow than Little Dutch Girl!  Or in these silly times are we still allowed to notice such things?
