Ballet Revisited




The Ballerina Project inspired me to look up vintage ballet pictures.
Oh, what a treasure trove!
There are so many that I'll have to do several posts.
I am such a sucker for gorgeous old black and white photographs!

The Ballerina Project





The Ballerina Project takes photos of ballerinas in various elegant, gravity-defying poses all over New York.
They are so striking.

More David Bowie





In The Man Who Fell To Earth, David Bowie plays an alien who has come to Earth to get water for his own planet. While here, he falls prey to drinking, drugs and television.
I can't really recommend the movie. It is slow and confusing.
However, David Bowie is absolutely beautiful in it.
And there are several moments of real elegance and style.

King's Island






Last month we were invited to go to King's Island with my family for my darling niece's birthday. We had so much fun!! We stayed until closing time even though it was a school night. We rode rides, played games, got wet on the log ride and took pictures in a photobooth. Another highlight? Having my fortune told by Zoltar.
He told me I needed to get up earlier in the morning.
Harrumph.

I Love Ohio

I keep Ohio close to my heart, even when I'm hard at work in the kitchen.
