Princes (Sold Separately)

Here's the thing about those Disney Princesses around here -- the princes are so totally beside the point.

I asked my daughter who turns five next month what a typical day is like for the Princesses.  She told me the following Princess facts:
-They all live together in the same castle.
-They all have their own rooms with fancy beds.
-They all cook meals together and eat together, or maybe they go out to eat.
-They dance if they want to.
-They do crafts and bake and do other fun things all day long.
-Some of them have jobs (Tiana has her own restaurant) but they get to choose.

Notice anything missing?  The handsome, charming, or otherwise useful prince?  Yeah, he's mostly out of the picture.  When pressed, she said the princes come over to dance sometimes but too often.

Hey Fairy Godmother?  I'm available.
