Artist Date Nights and Paris!

Paris Was a WomanGood evening!

Thursday nights in our house is artist date night, which means my sweetie goes out to spend some times with the guys, and I squirrel away doing something creative, like maybe some arting, or watching a fabulous movie, or taking myself out to see something beautiful!

Tonight I have chosen to watch what I am hoping will be a fabulous movie!! That movie is called Paris was a Woman, directed by Greta Schiller. The NetFlix description of this movie says,

“With home movies and intimate storytelling, this documentary re-creates the mood of Paris’s unique female artistic community between the World Wars.”

You may not know this about me, but I have always had a love affair with all things French!! I may have been born an American, I have always been a Francophile at heart!!!

I love…

the people,
the culture,
the architecture,
the history,
the sense of community,
the pace,
the countryside,
the language,
the fashion,
the food,
the music,
I LOVE IT ALL!!

Ok, well, since I have never actually been to France yet, I love the idea of all of the marvelously beautiful things!! I love watching French movies, I love reading French books, and I just adore French music!!

So, tonight for my artist date, I have decided to submerge myself some more into my love of all things French by watching this movie!!

Here is to a FABULOUSLY ARTSY evening!! 😉

Bonsoir!

Shaking Things Up!

CrownGood evening!

Now for the past few weeks, I have been hosting Blog Hop Thursdays, and to say that the results of that were less than stellar… well, let’s just say that it wasn’t working for me! So, I thought I would shake things up a bit and answer 5 questions about myself. Then you will have an opportunity to answer the same questions about yourself!

Do you see what I mean? Good, let’s give this a try!! 😉

  1. What is your all time favorite way to relax and unwind? a road trip is always good, and if it is a road trip to the Oregon coast, then I am in heaven!!! 😉
  2. What is your favorite color? on most days my favorite color is red, but then there are days when it is green, orange, blue, etc. etc.
  3. If you could have a do-over anywhere in your life, what moment would you choose to do-over and why? It would have been right after high school. I would have chosen to go to college with a major in something arty!!
  4. If you could have one crazy-zany-wildest-dream kind of job for just one day, what job would you choose? I would work with Melody Ross at a Brave Girls Camp!!! Oh-Em-Gee!! That sounds better now that I read that out loud!!! 😉
  5. If you could travel to any place in the world, where would you visit? I would normally say France, but after talking to my sweetie about it, I really, REALLY want to go see Ireland!!!

Ok, now that I have answered, it is your turn…

  1. What is your all time favorite way to relax and unwind?
  2. What is your favorite color?
  3. If you could have a do-over anywhere in your life, what moment would you choose to do-over and why?
  4. If you could have one crazy-zany-wildest-dream kind of job for just one day, what job would you choose?
  5. If you could travel to any place in the world, where would you visit?
