Happy Birthday Ms De Havilland

Photo:{Internet} Olivia de Havilland with Oscar

Yesterday, one of my favorite actresses turned 103 years old. Happy birthday, Olivia De Havilland .

When I found this photo, I cried. How amazing is this shot? It has all of the elements of a perfect portrait, plus a pug. Can you hear me sigh? A PUG!

Ms De Havilland was born in 1916 in Tokyo, Japan. {and lives in Paris} She has always been one of my favorites. If I listen closely, I can hear her voice. Her beautiful voice. She has been in over 31 movies {she was Melanie in Gone With The Wind} and won two Oscars. Her talent was perfection and her acting is still relevant in 2019.

Happy Birthday Ms De Havilland. I send greetings from Texas to you and sweet Oscar.

Love you beyond the birthday candles.

Sorry Wolfgang Puck

It was an awesome weekend.

Even though Larry was diagnosed with an

upper respiratory infection and bronchitis,

he started his medicine and rested.

Larry and I have a Oscar Dinner each year.

We see all of the nominated movies,

then plan a dinner around the red carpet and awards.

We really don’t care who wins,it is our excuse to go to the movies.

LOTS of  movies.

It was such a nice evening…

and we watched every moment.

The commercials were wonderful

and

Jimmy Kimmel was spectacular.

{I wish he were my brother IF I had a brother}

The movies that I liked this year,

must have to do with my frame of mind.

That is ok…….

it was a wonderful evening.

I am proud for all of the talented actors who saw their hard work

come together in one amazing project to be nominated.

Dinner: {sorry Wolfgang Puck, ours was more delish}

Steak, potatoes, veggies and cheese puffs.

Larry chose the menu and wine.

The wine was an old bottle  that he had been babying.

It was perfect.

And dessert…..oh my, dessert.

Larry asked for a 1/8th sheet cake from Kroger.

{The birthday kind of cake}

It is our dirty little splurge and we did.

Splurge that is.

In honor of OSCAR

Congratulations to all of the awesome winners.

ART in any form is inspirational….

May we  appreciate the greatness in others

instead of criticizing and demeaning them

We are so blessed…..

AND I ate Kroger Cake last night!

Love you.
