Quartet - Dustin Hoffman directed this movie about the residents of a home for retired British musicians. Things are going along just fine until someone new arrives to upset the balance. It's a fine little movie.
Mom & Me & Mom by Maya Angelou - First of all, I never knew that Maya Angelou was married to a Greek man, Tosh Angelos, and the last name she kept is the feminine of his. The story is wonderful. Maya's mother, Vivian Baxter, was a strong, charismatic woman who believed in herself and those around her, and imbued them with the qualities of self confidence and knowledge that they could do whatever they put their mind to do. She taught not only by her words, but by example. Thanks, Valerie! Lana Del Rey - I love her - thanks to my niece, Olivia, for liking her on Facebook, because I listened and found some fabulous music. I'm listening now, and her voice, the tunes, the words, it's all good, romantic, rebellious, poetic and mysterious. The albums are Born To Die and Paradise.
Her Heart On Her Sleeve: I live in a suburb north of Chicago, and I read, bead, make jewelry, sew, watch TV and movies, crochet, craft, decorate, go to house and garage sales, walk and go on beach walks, listen to music, take pictures, cook and bake, read, and write about all of it on herheartonhersleeve. I have a companion blog called Jewlery by Dianne Sophia at diannesophia.blogspot.com where I write exclusively about my jewelry.
Jewelry By Dianne Sophia: I have been collecting vintage jewelry since I was a girl growing up in Detroit, and have been designing and making jewelry for 15 years. I love to work with pearls and crystals, semi-precious stones, Sterling Silver and Gold, along with vintage beads and materials. I delight in combining shape, pattern and color in new ways. I'm inspired and influenced by my travels and experiences as a reader, writer, photographer and student of life. My blog herheartonhersleeve.blogspot.com chronicles my life in art and popular culture.
