Origin of the Red Hat Society The Red Hat Society resulted from the giving a birthday gift. In November 1997, Sue Ellen Cooper, (Fullerton, California) presented her dear friend, Linda Murphy, with a red hat and a copy of the poem "Warning" by Jenny Joseph. The orginial intent was that Linda hang the hat on a hook next to the framed poem, as a decorative reminder to loosen up as she got older. The gift was a hit! Other friends of Sue Ellen expressed an interest in receiving the same gift as they reached their 50th birthdays. On April 25, 1998, dressed in purple and their red hats, the ladies went to a tea room. This was the beginning of our Red Hat Society.

Tips and ideas
To dye an item purple
Here is a tip to dye an item purple. You will need a package of Purple dye and one half package of Royal Blue dye, one cup of salt and a dash of laundry detergent. Take the dyes and salt and mix it in a glass bowl before adding it to the soap then follow the directions on the package. The Royal Blue tones down the Purple and makes it a nice shade and the salt sets the dye. (Submitted by Eunice, use at your own discretion)
EAT YOUR VEGETABLES
Mother always said we sould eat our vegetables and todays nutritionists emphasis that we should eat a balanced diet with vegetables, protein etc. In order to do this I recommend you eat foods rich with vegetables, made with protein and delicious to boot! The magic food is of course MILK CHOCOLATE. Made of Cocoa BEANS, sweetened with CORN syrup, and a healthy dose of MILK to finish it off. Of course, if it is washed down with a vegetable drink, that made with the coffee BEAN, it would be even better. So listen to the dieticians (and of course mother) and eat CHOCOLATE every day!
The Banister of Life
