If You're a Hardcore Feminist, perhaps you won't find this as hilarious as I do.


I'm one that usually doesn't go for the dry humor of British television but, this segment from a 90s comedy program; Harry Enfield and Chums , off the BBC is great.

There are similar videos to be had here and here .

Grace in Small Things; 8 of 365.

1. I have a movie to keep me occupied this evening, Fiddler on the Roof to be exact. (TCM at 8 EST. in case you too are interested.)
2.) I got a valentine in the mail today from my sister and nephews.
3.) I went to the gym four times this week, not quite my goal but damn close.
4.) All of this working out pays off. My arms are getting muscle definition, my legs are muscle packed, and my stomach is shrinking.
5.) I now have not one but TWO dresses headed my way.

My Favorite Scenes in Film, Part 1.

Photobucket
Victor/Victoria is the 1982 Blake Edwards effort starring his charming, lovely wife; Dame Julie Andrews as Victoria/Count Victor Grahzinski and Robert Preston as the GAY Parisian Toddy, who takes this lowly wretch off the streets of Paris, turning her into an uber-successful "drag queen." The film also features Lesley Ann Warren portraying Norma and James Garner taking on the role of King Marchand.

There are a slew of incredible scenes including; The Shady Dame from Seville , Le Jazz Hot , or my personal favorite,

You & Me
:


Oh, its also endlessly quotable with such gems as;

Norma: I think that the right woman could reform you.
Toddy: You know, I think that the right woman could reform you, too.

King Marchand: I just find it hard to believe that you're a man.
Victoria: Because you found me attractive as a woman?
King Marchand: Yes, as a matter of fact.
Victoria: That happens frequently.
King Marchand: Not to me.
Victoria: Just proves the old adage: "There's a first time for everything."
King Marchand: I don't think so.
Victoria: But you're not a hundred per cent sure?
King Marchand: Practically.
Victoria: Ah, but to a man like you, someone who believes he could never, under any circumstances find another man attractive, the margin between "practically" and "for sure" must be as wide as the Grand Canyon.

King Marchand: If you were a man, I'd knock your block off.
Victoria: And prove that *you're* a man?
King Marchand: That's a woman's argument.
Victoria: Your problem, Mr. Marchand, is that you're preoccupied with stereotypes. I think it's as simple as you're one kind of man, I'm another.
King Marchand: And what kind are you?
Victoria: One that doesn't have to prove it. To myself, or anyone.



Quite a switch from Mary Poppins , isn't it?

This movie just happens to be on Krista's Top 10 Favorite Films of All Time so, if you haven't seen this campy yet elegant masterpiece in all its glory, I highly suggest you do, my dears.

Dear Deer.

Kate Micucci is an actress on the television program, Scrubs which obviously, I don't watch. I do, however, watch adorable videos such as this one created by the adorable Ms. Kate. Dear Deer:


I am officially cuted out for the day.

Lovely Lana.





I am not a fan of Ms. Turner's acting. I am, however, a fan of all things lovely. Hence the posting of these breathtaking photos.

Emilie Faif

I don't know how but for the past few days I've been bombarded with incredible works of art! I happened across one Emilie Faif via Crustation . I always visit the artist's site in search of anything that I, personally, may view as extraordinary and with Emilie, the Hollywood Kiss installation took my breath away.

So, head over to the above link, click on Emilie's name at the bottom and prepare to lose your breath with not only Hollywood Kiss but LACE creation and Landscapes print as well!
