At Panera's I stood behind an older woman (about my age) who was placing her order. She wore a knit animal-head ski hat. Colored turquoise and fuchsia, it had protruding baby-bear ears with large chartreuse and black eyes over her forehead. At her ears it morphed into two long scarfs which knotted under her chin and ended in fringes below her waist… "Why would anyone wear such a silly and ugly hat?"
Later, I ran into her at the coffee refill place and inquired, "Hey, that's some hat."
"Thanks. I bought it for the special needs kid I care for. He doesn't like it on his head, but loves it on me. That's why I wear it."
