Allergic to Peppermint

Anyone who knew Violet well could tell she was thinking hard, because her long hair was tied up in a ribbon to keep it out of her eyes. Violet had a real knack for inventing and building strange devices, so her brain was often filled with images of pulleys, levers, and gears, and she never wanted to be distracted by something as trivial as her hair.

Title? Didn't want to call it something boring and plain as Violet, her name....

INVENTING IN STYLE BABY, YEAH!!!!!!
