National Velvet

National Velvet is one of the first movies I remember watching. I wonder how many girls were inspired to learn to horseback ride by the film over the years?

I know I had quite a few Halloween costumes inspired by Elizabeth Taylor's turn in Cleopatra!

My mom told me once that she regrets not having a camcorder when we were kids. I can't even imagine how many silly videos of me like this there would be, except they would be much more painful.

I went to California last week to visit some some very dear friends. I'll write a real post about the trip soon, it was so wonderful.
