I’ve never been one to understand the whims of fashion or fads, but this one really has me perplexed. Are they just for decoration, or do they have some meaning, like showing your patriotism? Are the bigger stars more patriotic than the smaller ones?
And even more food for thought: Who was the first person to plaster a huge star on their house? And why? Which was the first store to think, “Why don’t we display some of those huge plastic stars we have in the storeroom and see if someone buys them?”
You see how my mind wanders when my husband and I are taking our after-dinner walk.
