I am going to cry if (when) they retire Josefina. Several years ago, the hospital auxiliary here had a Josefina party to raise money; they 'bought' the rights and supplies to conduct the party from the Pleasant Company. I was so excited and plunged into the work...and then the Mexican woman who was going to hostess this huge party bailed at the last minute and I found myself in a huge Mexican dress with a script. I had to stand up there in front of hundreds of people and do the whole thing with a Mexican accent, using lots of Spanish. Women I'd known for 20 years were sitting there open-mouthed.

In spite of that, I still love Josefina (and the Bitty Babies) best.
