girl HUNTER

If Babe's looking for someone to blame for his having been blindsided with, I just wanna take a peek at pricey shotguns this past weekend, he need look no further than GP...


Not, GP as in Gwynnie GP. But, GP as in Georgia Pellegrini GP... 

Between stumbling across GP's girl HUNTER book mention in my finally got around to cracking December issue of Town & Country, and Saturday's marathon of Alaska: The Last Frontier, Babe's been bracing himself as the Eastern Sho' in me rears it's prepneck head...

A prepneck with top shelf taste no less...

Fortunately for Babe, I've been distracted by a more affordable set of firearms. Between this Wimberly Inc *cuff and my girl Hunter purchase, his wallet's getting a temporary stay of sticker shock execution...

*The shotgun custom cuff find is sooo HOT I barely have all the ordering intel myself. Word from Wimberly rep, and Pinterest curator extraordinaire, Hilary Fox is that I can order through my old haunt Sherman Pickey, or my new haunt Abigail DeG Fox Designs...

Kindness of Babe who knows how to make the best of my prepneckness. Instead of haughtily correcting me earlier when I shamefully pronounced Petit Trianon, Petit Tree-annon, he just slipped on his Vince McMahon announcers voice and launched into, Treeeee-annonnnn (rhymes with Shannon) puuuhleeze leave the champagne room, you're on staaage next...Tree-annon will be daaancing the pole to Girls Girls Girls by Moootleyyy Crueee...leeet's give it up for the little Hoosier from Indiannaaaa...Treeee-annonnnnn! He was promptly rewarded with Diet Coke through the nose...XXOO

  1. The son of my new neighbour had his shotgun out at the weekend, whilst leaning on my garden wall and shouting like a twerpy adolescent - not best pleased.

  3. Have you seen the Pronunciation Manual Channel on YouTube? My favorite is for 'haute couture' although schadenfreude and L'Occitane make me giggle, too.

  4. Have you seen the Preppy Redneck shop that just moved from the Queenstown Outlet area to St. Michaels? You can find her on FB.

    I just did a post about Crumpton today. Did you ever go there when you lived in Fenwick? They had some hunting stuff. Old shotguns that would make for good wall decor...

  5. The real question is have you seen Debutante Hunters? It'll be at Sundance this year!

  8. That cuff seems like the perfect Girls Gun Club badge of honor. EAS?

  9. I have a girl crush on Georgia. :-) She was featured as the cover story in the August issue of Shooting Sportsman and that was the first issue that my hubby didn't mind sharing with me as he thinks Georgia's cooking will rub off on me. She also has a great blog- http://georgiapellegrini.com/topics/blog/

    So what shotguns did you look at? I have my eye on a 12 ga Caesar Guerini Tempio.

  11. I need to check out this book and yes Nelle the cuff would be perfect for the girl's gun club! I am also curious what guns you looked at...I really want to have a Beretta fit just for me. xx

  14. I know Guerini's are uber nice but, I'm not familiar with them at all. Personally, I've been waging a losing campaign to take possession of my father's shotgun, that he still to this day keeps under their bed and, we have several that belonged to Babe's grandfather. I'm all about tradition. But, if I were to get a new one, I'd head straight for Benelli...XXOO
