Wednesday Glamour

Since my post last week featuring a few glamorous women from the Golden Age of Hollywood was pretty popular, I think I’ll make this a weekly thing!

A Day of Old Hollywood Glamour

Since it’s a dreary, rainy day here in Bluffton and I’m listening to the water drip into the pots where the skylight is leaking in the bathroom, I thought I’d cheer myself up with some beautiful glamour photos and daydream the time away imagining I was one of them…

Back to Baseball

Here’s a story for ya’ll.

Eight years ago, this guy graduated high school in Forney, Texas with a scholarship to play baseball for Texas A&M.  He actually attended three different high schools in order to play for specific coaches.  But he never made it to college.

The Bags of Apricot Collection

I have a confession to make.  I have a weakness for purses.  Of all kinds.

Being a petite 5’2”, I can’t keep up with much of the clothing trends out there.  A tunic with leggings?  I might as well wear a potato sack because that’s what I’d end up looking like.  Trying to find a maxi dress short enough to not look like a bridal gown train would take up too much of my summer and then it would be cold again and the hunt would be placed on hold again until next year.

But a stylish new hobo bag is right up my alley!

(Fredric) March Favorites

Mama Kat’s prompt this week was to list your “March Favorites”.  Of course there is no comparison to Riley’s birthday being in March. Unfortunately he now thinks Easter is a continuation of his birthday!  I’m sure I thought pumpkin pie was birthday pie at one point since my birthday falls around Thanksgiving each year.  But I’m going to let you in on some different March favorites; classic actor, Fredric March!  

On the Third Day…

Luke 23

Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man.

Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus spake again to them.

And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified.  And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.  And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.

And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.  And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.  Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.

And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counsellor; and he was a good man, and a just:

This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.  And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.
