My Madeline Kahn hopeful moment!
7 years ago
So I absolutely love Madeline Kahn, and as a kid thought I’d grow up to be just like her(lol, right?)
One of my favorite screen moments of hers is from High Anxiety where she gets out of a car and her pantsuit is the same pattern as her Louis Vuitton car.
So I just bought a new Willam Morris duvet cover for my bed,
And then this morning, I discovered this dress on eBay :D
I think I’ll buy it lol.

Movie Season
Comments (25)pidge, I started another thread with info regarding sleep apnea and CPAP. Seems like I hijacked your movie season thread. LOL Like your friend, I feel the CPAP device is a real pain in the yang but it beats having a stroke or heart attack during sleep. During my testing in the hospital I stopped breathing 32 times an hour. An apnea episode has to be no breathing for a minimum of 10 seconds. Among other symptoms, many times I would wake up with my head feeling like it was about to explode...SEVERE headache. The sleep doctor said it was due to lack of oxygen. Many sleep apnea sufferers have strokes and heart attacks during sleep due to lack of oxygen. Oh, yeah...I told ya. My fingers don't know when to shut up. Now, I'll go to the new thread. It is boring reading but I hope it can enlighten someone who may suffer from this or have a loved one that may....See MoreLooking/trade/exchange for the figs Cuttings

Comments (24)Alexr- I memorized "Abou Ben Adhem" for my 6th grade class because my mom told me SHE had memorized it for school, too! My parents are in their 80s and now live in Florida after a lifetime in NYC. I had a typical NYC 1960s childhood- stay at home mom, 4-room apartment, shared a bedroom with my sister, dad worked two jobs. My mom was definitely not a cook. The only vegetable I ever saw came out of a can or a frozen food package. But my mom put a hot meal on the table every night at 6:00pm- mostly red meat and potatoes. She had a regular routine- Monday was steak, Tuesday was spaghetti and meatballs, Wednesday was stew, Thursday was lamb chops, and Friday was chicken, and for special occasions- pot roast! Saturday was potluck, deli, or Chinese food, and Sunday we visited our grandparents for chicken soup and boiled chicken & mashed potatoes dinner- with a "dumb waiter" in the kitchen! But my mom was always ready for homework projects- loved to help us with costumes, dioramas, book reports. We always played word games at dinner and danced with my dad after dinner every night- anyone remember the Bossa Nova? Every Weekend we went on a "show & tell" outing, so my sister and I would have something to share with our class on Monday. We visited every free museum and historic site in the city with our Brownie Starflash camera. My dad always thought my mom was beautiful. She was a petite red head, and even though she's totally grey now, he still refers to her as the "red head". My mom has never spent a penny without okaying it with my dad first. And he always tells her to buy whatever she wants, but he likes to see her model the outfits first. We all watched the one TV in the living room together- I remember seeing The Beatles on Ed Sullivan in 1964! My dad loved to buy us toys, and my shared bedroom was overflowing with hula hoops, roller skates, Ginny dolls, Barbie dolls, Slinky, Lionel trains, board games, and 45rpm records. I was a lucky girl!...See MoreMid 70s brutalist row house
Comments (45)In its own suburban way, that's what the PO did to this house, magnaverde. We've been spending a lot of time taking out white colonial Home Depot molding and putting in small simple molding (painted the same color as the room), taking out 6 panel fake wood hollowcore doors and replacing them with solid core slab doors or fir single-lite pocket doors...one eyesore I haven't been able to fix yet is in the double -height foyer where a massive foyer fixture once hung, the PO put a cr*ppy white HD fan with shiny fake brass trim...UGH UGH UGH. I actually found a rather tasteful 70s Fredrick Ramond fixture in LN condition at a Habitat store, which would be much closer to what should show in that tall window above the door, but it's *difficult* to get up there and change the fixture out. We've given away so much colonial molding and use the doors for work surfaces. This is no masterpiece house, but it felt like it was being suffocated in faux-colonial trim and we've resimplified it so it could be itself again. Which will probably go completely unappreciated in this neighborhood, but it passed the time. palimpsest, if you have a feeling that you shouldn't post, I completely respect that. Don't want to jinx anything. We'll just have to wait until you have found something and then settled on it and then we can celebrate with you! I have faith that you can do anything you want and will make whichever house (and cash IS king right now, so I understand the drive to underspend) into a photogenic and soul-nourishing home....See More- 7 years ago
