This time, I think it's over...


PLEASE..

CLICK on the PURPLE click-able links, below.

To know what his post is about.

PLEASE!!!!!

See that simple gold ring, on her (Kristen Stewart) right middle finger?  That's what she's been wearing for a long, long time.  And it denoted that she and Rob Pattinson were "a couple."  She wore it, even after the "cheating scandal" of last summer.

Pics taken in Paris, July 2.  See ring on her right middle finger, now?  Looks much thicker, than the one above, yes?

Plus...  she got tats!  Ugh....  Yish... Don't think she ever did this before.  Sure sounds like something done, when a period of her life is over, and she's moving on...

In Paris again...  In July 2013...  See how chunky that ring looks?

July 4, 2013, about noon our time, going to Paris Fashion Show....  NO  RING!!!!  See her right hand?  No ring at all.  Not the thin one.  Not the newer chunky one.  No ring, folks.

Rob/Kristen fans can now sob, sob, sob...  It's over, Girls.  The Romance is over.   Let's let 'em both move on, with their lives.

Fri. fun, and Sat. sun...

We had a nearly full day of sun, on Fri.  Wow!!!!  And a purrrrrrfect Saturday is forecast!  Double wow!!!

Yesterday was spent, as I said....  Up at 6am, to watch old Esther Williams films on A&E.  Watched 'till an old black and white one, with no swimming, came on.  Turned that off and baked the bread.

  The bread, which I am not showing.  Because I messed up the recipe, and it did not come out, "pretty."  It's ok to eat, but I'll have to do it again.  More Correctly!  ,-)


Then it was back to more movies, until I had to take a nap.  Missed some of that one.  But then continued my marathon watching, thru the last one, at 8pm.  Wow!!!

I have fun with old movies, by watching to see who did the Set Design on them.  (The name I recognize most, is (click-->) Edwin B.Willis...)  And also have fun, noticing other actors, who later became more famous.

A very young (click-->)  Ricardo Montalban  was in a couple of them.  Oh my wow!!!!!  What a gorgeous man he was!!!

All his life.  Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm....   Yummmmmmmmmmy...  :-)

I read for a while, but had to go to bed.  I was tired!  LOL. 

And woke to beautiful SUN, this (Sat.) morning.  Yessss!!!!!

Wondering, am I the only "Old Movie Fan," out there in Pretty Blog Land?  :-)  I kind-of doubt it.  If you too, are a fan, which kind of "Old Movies," are your favorite?  Or do you like a lot of different types of them?

Friday this and that and this again...

It's been rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain.


But Fri. is sunny.  May cloud up later but...
 

It's sunny now.


Today is for watching Esther Williams old movies, most all day long.


And try to make Elana's Paleo Bread.   Which recipe you can find, by clicking here....  Will mine look like hers, above?  Probably not, but....  I'll try.  :-)


Yes, it's selling Coke, below.  But in a nice and uplifting way.  Found this featred on "The Deepest Well" blog.  Thank you, Aine.

Please click here....   Thank you.  It's very short.

Full Snow Moon, and other interests... :-)))



Trying for a rather-BROWN  effect here.   I really feel I should tell you, what I am trying to do.  Because who knows what my whole blog looks like, on other computers?   ~~~~~~~~~~~          Which, if we let it, might convince us that it's useless  to try to have different Blog Looks.  -sigh-  What looks pretty good, to us, on our computer monitor, may not look ANYTHING like that, on our Dear Reader's monitors.    ~~~~~~~~~~~         Oh well, figuring out how to make my blog look different, now and then, is a big part of the Fun Of Blogging, for me.  So I shall continue to change!!!!!!!  :-)


And just-because-I-can....    I love, love, love the look of the above illustration.  LOVE IT!  -chuckle-  And I fully expect to not have many Dear Readers who agree with me.  -chuckle-  But, that's fine.  It's my blog.   Oh he makes me happy, just to look at him!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't forget.  Tonight is the Full Snow Moon...!  I saw it last night, when I got up to "tinkle" about 3AM.  It was so, so, so, so lovely.   Just had to stare at it, a while.  :-)  Which of course, messed-with my melatonin, and I couldn't get right back to sleep.  :-)  But it was...............  beautiful.   Please, if you can see it tonight in your area, please try to do so.
 
No, I don't even know who won the Oscars last night.  :-)  I'll look at Red Carpet pics, on the Net today.  I'll look for a picture of Kristen Stewart, since she was to be a presenter.  But I have no interest in the Oscars.   ~~~~~~~~~~~   If you had fun with the Oscars, hooray for you!!!!  I'm not knocking anyone's fun!  :-)   It's just that we don't.

WOW!!! A first!!! WoW!!!



"Byzantium"  is the story of mother and daughter vampires, whose epic drama spans centuries.  Oh wow!  Oh wow!  Oh wow!  By clicking on that click-able link ("Byzantium") ...  You can go to a site, where you can watch a trailer, for the film.  :-))))))))))))))))))))

Yes, I found this on "Gossip Cop" blog.   ,-)   That blog is worth more than just separating 'rumor' from 'fact,' in the world of .......   Those silly famous people.  -grin-

♥♥♥♥♥♥



I took a picture, of my very first attempt, at "painting" my own Background.  -grin-

What do I write/say next, huuuuuu?

Something like;  "I know it's hardly professional, and not up to, what a real water-colorist  can paint/do...."

Or;  "I know that "S.B." is not going to be worried, about being put-out-of-business.  -Ha-ha-hah-"

But!!!

My Wild Woman will not allow such!  She will only allow me to exalt, in accomplishment!  She will only allow me to be so proud of myself, because I actually put brush to paper, and made some sort of a picture!!!   My Wild Woman says that to act *all-silly-little-ol'-me,* and in a self-depreciating way,  is to degrade my accomplishment.  :-((((  She says that I need, need, need to bask in the Happiness and Joy of having accomplished something creative.  My Wild Woman  is the best of Mothers, to me.

I am so happy, that I have begun to find and listen to, even a tiny bit of what My Wild Woman inside, has to share with me.

I wish every woman, the same...

snow-marshmallow-whipped-cream-"Auld Lang Syne"



As you can see, I didn't keep the all-plain-white background for long.  But, this cute little pic is kind of over-kill, the other way.  Meaning, I went from very plain background...  To a little-too-much- going-on in the background.  ~~~~   Mmmm, later, changed again.  :-)

We have the lobster...  We have the Champagne...  We have "his" cheeses and "my" cheeses...  And grapes and diff crackers, for with the cheeses.  Not sure exactly what we'll do with the lobster.  They are cooked and chilled and could just be cracked (by HIM), and cut up, and dipped in a wee bit of hot butter.......   We'll see....

We have "The Thin Man" dvd from the library.  (1934)  "Nick and Nora Charles, a former detective and his rich, playful wife, investigate a murder case mostly for the fun of it."...  That about sums up the plot.  But it's the inter-acting of William Powell and Myrna Loy, which puts this classic film, over-the-top.   Fun!  Fun!  Zany fun!  ;-)

Oh and don't forget to turn on the scanner!  To hear the nutty things which the poor Police Dept. has to deal with, on a New Year's Eve.  ,-0

Happy New Year's Eve to you, Dear Reader!!!




"If New Year's Eve night wind blow south, 
It betokeneth warmth and growth:
If west, much milk, and fish in the sea:
If north, much cold, and storms there will be:
If east, the trees will bear much fruit:
If north-east, flee it man and brute."

♥ 'Hard' Water... And a film... :-)))


We both just got done (when I composed this, that is) with "attacking" our little downstairs bathroom sink.   It's a pretty little white sink, shaped like a shell.  We have HARD water.  I have to use one soap, because my hands are *delicate.*  And it leaves soap build up.  Yikes!   What a mess.

He attacked it with steel wool and some cleaner he uses, for mineral build up from our HARD water.  And I am going to get some DAWN, which "The Mad Snapper" suggested.  I can put it, cut with water, into a spray bottle I saved, and try using that too.  

Any other Dear Readers, live in HARD water areas?  If you do, you must have similar problems.  Do you have any Words Of Wisdom, to share, please??????  And thank you.

I know I posted this pic yesterday.  But did you see the bee, in the middle???

See bee?  See bee?  See bee?  In the middle of this cropped version of the above photo.  :-))))

Have you seen the film,  "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel"?


Of course, since it has Dame Judi Dench in it, I had to see it, eventually.  I was very happy to find that my library got it.  So we watched it last evening.  It's a bit of wild impossible ride.  But sweet.   :-)
