What takes your breath away?

What takes your breath away?

The question seems as though it would be easy to answer. What takes your breath away?

  1. Great art leaves me breathless and speechless
  2. An affection not necessary on the lips kiss leaves me breathless
  3. Taking off my shoes and dropping my purse when I arrive home leaves me both breathless and speechless
  4. Great spaghetti and lasagna leave me breathless

Whimsical fits of fantasy

Whimsical fits of fantasy always come to mind when I think of fairytales. I was once asked if I could be any fairytale character who would it be. It’s hard to narrow down which fairytale character I would be since I love them all. But if I had to narrow it down to these:

  1. Red Ridinghood. Red has a super cute cape and I always thoguth I would look good as a red head
  2. Snow White. I love her dress and her ink black hair. Beside she has seven men at her beck and call
  3. Cinderella because she has glass slipeprs and a cute dress
  4. Belle- Because she like to read and I love to read
  5. I want to marry Uncle Rat in A Frog Went A Courting. My mother use to read this story to my siblings and I as children. I always asked about Uncle Rats wife and my mother use to say that I should write his story when I became and adult…maybe one day I will.

O’ Dear! What will Abigail wear to dinner?



Now that I am throwing a dinner party for the dead I must pick out the perfect dress. I often wonder what one wears to a dinner party of the undead. While black would be appropriate for most, I chose to believe that things should be liven up. I do believe that dead folks like color too.

O’ Dear! What will Abigail wear to dinner?

I think I want to live in Paris


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

I think I want to live in Paris. Not necessary Paris but very close to Paris. I think Luxemburg would be a good place to call home.  I could awake every morning and walk the streets of town for no reason. Then get labeled  "That Crazy American: by locals. I want to live in Paris not necessary Paris but close to it.

Today I am listening to Ella Fitzgerald "Paris In Springtime.
