I’ve also started watching Masters Of The Air and every time I watch these series, as an Englishman, I am reminded of the American, Polish, Free French and Czech blood that was spilled in defence of our island in WW2 🙏❤️
I’m loving Capote vs. The Swans. I was really hoping it would be good, and I’m so glad that it is. Naomi Watts is the perfect Babe Paley. I remember reading about the situation a long time ago in, as I remember, Vanity Fair. I have been a fan of Capote since childhood - he wrote such beautiful prose. My favorite is “A Christmas Memory”, a tribute to his cousin “Miss Sook”, who helped to raise him in his mother’s absence. Our local public radio station plays a recording of Mr. Capote reading it every Christmas Eve.
Enjoyed seeing all of the photos you included today… you wear black so well, and of course your hair always look great! The black top over the lace dress is perfect… I can’t quite see the Hands necklace but I’m sure it is unique
I started watching Capote V Swans but fell asleep, so I’ll try again. There are several things about Capote available to watch. He’s such an interesting man to me. I had no idea he was born in Alabama and Harper Lee was his childhood friend. A sad life really. I do like his style of writing very much though.
Glad you had a good week at home. You mentioned allowing life to come naturally and being inspired to follow the path of same. I’m trying too. The slower things are, the better I feel.
Thank you for the recipe! And the Word of the Week is a great idea! I appreciate it. You always have good things to share.
Sweet, thoughtful Valentines gifts/ from Hayes & Shelby! Special folks in your life that love you lots! 💘
And most probably your plants 🌱 too for talking to them. 😊
Ms. Allison: are those paintings in the photos of your commisioned project? (I couldn't get my phone to expand out the images). If those are paintings then I declare that you are really good. Peace and love❤️
I've told you this so many times Allison I hope you're patient with me I wait for your Sunday lists every week I too watched capote VS the swans and I have watched it over again for it was that good
Oh my, you are heaven sent. It's a delight to read your Sunday List, and something I look forward to. It's like a list of all that I need to take notice of, and absorb. Thank you for the Nepo excerpt, sigh... So much to work on and be in the now in order to really listen. And thanks for the Signs book reference. And Norah Jones is a drink of beauty. My daughter and I listen to her, a lot. Something comforting for us. So happy for John Henry... YAY! Sending Valentine's wishes of love and sweetness to surround you, Allison.

Yes, Gay. Capote is the character of Dill Harris in To Kill a Mockingbird—my favorite book. Harper Lee helped with the research for “In Cold Blood.”
Hey Alice yes I watched the in Cold Blood movie on Prime? With Truman’s commentary… so so interesting
That’s where I learned about Harper Lee … quite a few TC shows on Prime
excited to view all
Yes Gay

My dad who has long passed was an air warrior on the carrier Intrepid. I have a great collection of dad and the squad flying their TBF Avengers
I'm on page 50 of Nepo's book. I had a rough week and it spoke to my soul.
Happy Valentine’s Day to you and this lovely community ❤️
Reference blocking what we believe we already "know.," here is a poem from one of my books.
"If I only "know"
what I believe I "know
How will I ever know
what I don't know?"
