VOTE

 Little Edie tells it! And years later, things appear to be just the same.

Vote.

FOURTH

 

It's been so long since I had enjoyed a three day weekend because of the pandemic and not working, I'd almost forgotten what it felt like, but it's been so hectic with work and free lance projects, it's welcomed. Last week before heading home I did a window display for an antique dealers shop window...couldn't resist using the Boston Terrier door stops...and then took a peruse around his shop. Many modern Independence Day traditions stem from Americas early independence celebrations. It use to be quite common for the Declaration of Independence to be read aloud, followed by muskets and cannons being fired. It's safe to say the earliest of Americans celebrated the 4th of July loudly and proudly.

We are gathering with family, and the Lad at the Mothers for our 4th of July. While gin and Pimms poured yesterday, today will be a nice cook out on the grill, and getting buzzed on more Pimms Cups all around. No fireworks this year, although we may see them from the house anyhow.... but we plan to have a fire in the firepit.... and may light some sparklers if the mood strikes.

Happy Fourth of July!

Little Edie...always a holiday favorite.

THE TRUTH IS....

...it's not been easy, rather, things have been tough at the Casa du Borghese since letting go all the house staff.

I just hope mother, I and the racoons can pull through.

And if your a night owl, like me....

For Veterans Day!!! Little Edie's Flag Dance!

And in closing today......Happy Veterans Day to all, as we remember those who served in all our branches of service in the military. Our hats off to all veterans! How un-patriotic would it be without a Military flag dance from the ever entertaining Little Edie Bouvier Beale.........

 

 

It's funny, when you are rich you are called eccentric, but when you are poor your plain old crazy... I adore her always!

 

Happy Veterans Day!!!!
