T Is For Torch Song

1 T is for Torch Song 01b

It’s quarter to three
There ain’t no one in the place except you and me
So set ’em up, Joe
I’ve got a little story you ought to know

~ Lyrics from “One For My Baby” by Johnny Mercer & Harold Arlen

A smokey bar, a melancholy piano and a beauty singing of lamented love. The perfect recipe for a torch song.

I’m not into fantasy or role play so I don’t usually visit Genre, but when I saw the theme this round was “Big Bands” I had to go. And I am happy I did.

This torch that I’ve found
Must be drowned or it soon might explode
So make it one for my baby
One more for the road
A long, long road

~ From “One For My Baby”

L Is For Lemonade

1 L is for Lemonade 02

I always wanted to have a lemonade stand when I was a kid. I saw them on television and read about them in books and it seemed like the perfect enterprise for a child. However, when you live on a farm with your closest neighbour almost a mile away, it doesn’t allow for much foot traffic. Even as a little girl I understood the value of location, location, location.

I have one now. It sits in front of my show room so that anyone who passes by can pick up a cool, refreshing glass to parch their thirst. I also have one at home on the pier. And I set up another to take this photo. A girl can never have too many shoes or too many lemonade stands, you know 😉

G Is For [Gos]

1 G is for Gos

What else could I choose for the letter G besides [Gos]? Don’t answer that – it’s hypothetical 😉

These days, if I’m not wearing Slink add-ons, I’m wearing [Gos] pumps/stilettos/heels. Although I love the variety of choosing from so many designers for the Slink add-ons, the quality has as much variety from amazing to ZOMG-what-were-you-thinking? Not only is the skin-matching a breeze with [Gos], but Mr Voom puts out consistently fabulous shoes. From the style to the quality of textures and design, I don’t think he has put out a pair from the Boutique that I either don’t have or don’t want.

Give me a pair of these babies and I’m a giddy girl!
