Why “the red bandana?”

Well, mostly because it helps keep my hair out of the food.

But also, a little background:

My greatest aspirations are to be like this:

  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kahp_kmOFzQ
  • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_the_Riveter

But my current experience is more like this:

  • Being enthralled at getting to wear a bandana instead of a skullcap at my internship at Founding Farmers
  • When at Just Cakes I professed my aspiration to be a hippie and Nick announced he’d always known I was a commie because of the red bandana
  • When Sara visited me at home after Just Cakes closed and brought me three dollar store bandanas because I would obviously want them
