Happily Ali After And other Fairly True Tales by Ali Wentworth - Loved it! Ali's mind can't not come up with constant wit about Inspiration, Marriage, Parenting and Wellness. She's grown up, but not totally a grown up, neurotic, but funny, sweet with a little edge. She never goes all the way to discomfort, but goes far enough to be entertaining and occasionally squirmy. I could read these stories forever.Brooklyn - I haven't been a regular movie-goer for awhile, which means that every time I do go, I want to see something excellent. Brooklyn delivered.I read the book a few years ago and loved the story of Aylish, (not how it's spelled, but how it sounds) (and if you read my review of the book, you'll see that with the unusual spelling, Ididn't know how to pronounce her name) a young Irish girl who cannot find a job in her town. Her sister arranges for her to go to America where a job and place to live await her in Brooklyn. It isn't the most action packed movie, but the story flows and in the end Aylish has a big decision to make.
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.
