Here is Pippi Longstocking, kinda - I had to go to school as her for carnival.
I remember the fake hair I got for that... who´d guessed I´d end up with hair like that for real - well, Dad did, hence my second name, Flavia. Red hair...
But. Since Nicole wants a photo for the self-portrait and there is none I tried something else...
This was the best I could do....
And yes. I´m from a family of optometrists and have several glasses for different uses... Right now I´m wearing red ones - monitor-glasses... the dark blue ones are for going outside and the first ones for reading a book/kindle, but I can do without now.
Aging, you know!
So, with this I join Nicole´s FFO ....
Now, after the drama, let´s laugh, shall we?
And...
And....
Also...
And, last that is how you survive:
Henry 🦁
Have a happy one.

Thank you, dear friend Linda! Moo! 😅 Much love and warm hugs on the way! 🥰
Oh love the colour of your glasses and the top drawings and adore your young picture. Had to laugh at eating a meat pie Loos familiar Here in NZ is quite similar and I can fully relate to the Calvin and Hobbes picture haha
OMG
What a scream of humour, Iris
Thanks for linking to

I remembervreading Pippi Longstockings, whenni was a child
Much♡love
Thank you, yes, the b/w-one... oh, I did my best but it is a fail! At least Pippi made it! February... meat pie from Jesters it will be!! Ta-Daaa!!
Gillena, yes, Pippi was strong! Wish she would-re-appear on TV! To fun 😊
oh lovely self portrait! I love it! Also love pipi! I use to watch her when I was little. Wonderful and all your funnies always make my day. Have a lovely Friday and a wonderful weekend! Your food looks yummy. :) Hugs!
I like your portrait! I think I still have one of my Pippi Longstocking books!
The drawing of you as Pippi is adorable.
Happy Friday. I am a Grown-up (groan-up) too.
Wonderful sketches, laughs! Happy thanksgiving!
...Iris, I grew up with Pippi! Thanks for the chuckles!!!
Fun post. I'm so old I learned to write my letters with a mallet and chisel 😉I'd scream too if I saw a pink '67 pink Chevy Impala. I can only hear Dean saying, You weren't supposed to douche it up. Have a great day!
Nothing Quite Like Funny Fridays
Well Played ,
Cheers
Some very funny ones here, Iris! And some painfully true (groan!)
Have a lovely weekend!
Love the mooing turkeys, Iris. Thanks for the laughs.
Awesome self-portraits, you were so cute as Pippi Longstockings. I also like your interpretation of the prompt "crescent moon." That Australian Meat Pie video is TOO FUNNY!
Cute self portrait! Thanks for the smiles!
That was fun to watch and read. I am a 'groan-up' too. And yes, I sang along with the white cat! Have a happy weekend. Kate x (My post can be found HERE )

Iris, I knew you would come up with something clever, not 1 but 2 SP. I can see you as pippy, with the long red hair and your cute little face. Well done. However, that bath portrait is outstanding. I think everyone of us have a photo of us in the bath and your execution of it is excellent. I did like that video and all of the funnies. The giving thanks is so true. Thank you for joining FFO SP and have the very best weekend ever.
Thank you, Maria, wish I was more talented, though, LOL. Yes, Pippi was on TV here, so nice! To a wonderful weekend! Hugs!
To Pippi!!!! The portrait... oh, ack!
Let´s groan! And than you, Gene.
Thank you - Ingo made an Aussie-dish today :-)
Pippi was strong - and we are, too, Tom!
Douche it up!!!! LOL! You nailed it, thank you!!!! I had paper learning to write ... these days kids have tablets, I suppose!
Thank you and cheers to that - Friday, yippeee! (I dozed off...).
Yes, let´s groan up... I fell asleep in my seat.
Moo, RedPat, moo...
Thank you and I just had some "Aussie-food", made by Ingo, post to come, yum! And to cheese!
Thank you and you´re welcome!
Fred sure says thanks in his heart!!! Hopping over to you! Thank you for remembering me!
You´re very welcome and thank you, too! Hugs
Thank you, dear host Nicole! I was not really content with my portrait, though! I tried and then... at one point "gave up"!
But.. I got it done :-)
To a great weekend!
I remember Pippi well! Us Kiwis are the same with our pies, just about anything goes into them.
Oh Mann, ich bin auch alt nach Baby Yoda...
Also, dein Pippi Selbstportrait gefällt mir echt gut! Ich bin übrigens auch mal als Pippi gegangen, ich liebte sie, wie alle Charaktere von Astrid Lindgren. Aber sie war definitiv mein Favorit. Und das Badewannen Portrait ist auch super, tolle Idee mit dem weißen Stift auf dunklem Hintergrund.
I am certainly groan-up, especially now as my delightful gym teacher has given us a lot of leg exercises with weights asnd now my legs hurt so much I can hardly get up. (groan groan)
And I might be even older than Yoda as I learnt to write with a pen that needs to be dipped in the ink.
I chuckled at your funnies, haha mooing turkeys.
Have a lovely weekend,
Lisca
You were a darling little girl, Iris! Well done on your portrait. I loved the laughs. Have a great weekend!
I like the black back ground. I didn't know about doing self portrait.
Germany is the land of no pie - only sweet stuff! Or you cook & bake yourself....
Dankeschön - ich dachte, wenn ich verhau, dann aber richtig! Echte Portraits finde ich superschwer. Und ja, hier auch Baby Yoda - schwarz-weiß Fernsehen inclusive und nur 4 Programme mit DDR-Sandmännchen.... Michel aus Lönneberga, den mochte ich auch sehr.
Yes, I groan a lot, too ;-) But I had a real pen already. Moo! I never saw a whole turkey to buy here in Germany, only know this from the movies... to a lovely weekend - I slept in and woke up... groaning.
Thank you and to a great weekend - looking forward to see yours!
Thank you, oh, sad you missed it! Maybe do it anyways!
Fabulous face Iris. You did look a bit like Pippi although your hair is not as bright red as hers. Your drawing is super though. I hope it was nice FRiday. hugs-Erika
Love your self portrait!
Groan to Picard!
Well I got a wig for the day. so sad there is no pic ... or... luckily? ;-) Hugs to fun times!
Thank you. Oh.
Aren´t we all by now?
