I Need The Eggs


December 1 is Woody Allen's Birthday. He will be 78 years old.
 
 
I know that general feelings about Allen Konigsberg are mixed. But I love him. I Lurve Him! I really do. I dream about him frequently (What would Freud say?) I have groupie stalkered my way to Michael's Pub to see him play the clarinet with his jazz band. I am first in line when a new Woody Allen film comes out. I once saw him on the street in New York City and my heart started pounding so hard that I felt light-headed.
So in honor of his genius, here is a very abbreviated random slide show of just some of his many brilliant films. He makes a new film just about every year. Amazing!  
This is actually a Quiz! See how many titles you can name based on the pictures. The answers are at the bottom. Good Luck!

Pamplemousse

Pamplemousse. The French word for Grapefruit.
 I just love that word. And Now I Have Reason To Love It Even More. Here's Why:

 It Smells like Teen Spirit.
 No actually it Smells just like GRAPEFRUIT.
 
 
I recently read that if you Smell Like Grapefuit, you will be perceived as younger than you are.
You can read about it HERE.
Since I am not really a Plastic Surgery Type of Girl I say,
"Sign Me Up for Grapefruit!!!!!"
 
Mistral ~~ fresh
 

I sniffed a lot of Grapefruity scents until I finally narrowed it down to these two.
I am quite convinced that I Smell quite Young and Fruity.
I haven't done any proper research but I am proud to say that I haven't been offered a senior citizen discount in Weeks!
And in the process of all this Citrus smelling I have become quite enamored of that Pinky Grapefruit Color!
 
 
 
 
So when I finally decided to Buy My First Pair Of NEW SHOES In Almost THREE YEARS I didn't go for a pair of fancy Manolos. Nope. I bought some Pink Grapefruit colored Vans.
This smell business must be working on ME because this Style of Shoes is quite Young. I was By Far the Oldest Person in the Vans store....but my SMELL didn't give me away!
 
Jeans -Target
Smock - Eileen Fisher, purchased with my employee discount from 4 years ago
T-shirt - who cares?
Shoes - Vans
Circle Pin - Gift from my Mother-in-Law
Purple Bandaid on my arm - Flu Shot - OUCH!

 
So...
What Do YOU Smell Like?????
