The look on the face of the Blonde in a Red Dress is less “Love At First Sight” and more “Are we done posing for this cover yet? I hate Mondays.”

Fly The Friendly Skies
The Blonde in Red finally returns home from her overseas vacation, after her flight was delayed by a case of “jet fury” (the airborne equivalent of “road rage”.)

Sorry for the delay in posting. The Blonde in a Red Dress got caught up in work while on vacation and was thus a little late getting back home from her globetrotting holiday.

Vacation Fill-In Guest Host In A Red Dress
The Blonde in a Red Dress has a vacation day off, but good ol’ Smilin’ Ed promised he’d find a suitable temp replacement. I’m sure the readers won’t even notice a difference!

Blonde in a Red (Patterned) Dress: Casual Friday?
The Blonde in Red spends the day at the fair relaxing out of her typical solid red uniform, and trying out an eye-searing mashup of checkerboard polkadots instead. (No wonder the poor kid holding the prize ribbon is so confused; he’s probably been half-blinded by the fashion mashup.)

Blonde in a Red (Patterned) Dress: Canoes by Moonlight
The Blonde in Red was disappointed to learn that her new dress ranked so low on the Helen-o-meter. (If Helen-of-Troy is the quantifiable beauty standard for launching one thousand ships, then launching only four canoes would register a score of only four Milli-Helens. That’s science!)

Our blonde heroine briefly exchanges her trademark red dress for some red pants, which are more practical when chasing down “Exciting Adventures — on Land — on Sea — in the Air!”
