At the end of his film, "La Belle et la Bete", Jean Cocteau adds a twist.
When the Prince asks Beauty if she is happy (with his transformation), she closes her eyes and answers: "I shall have to get used to it."
Ordinary beauty cannot easily replace the terrible beauty that had won her heart. We share her secret disappointment.

food tally:
one krispy kreme glazed donut
2 cups coffee, one w/ 5 creamers and 3 sugars
wrap sandwich - roast beef, provolone, lettuce and tomato
bowl of broccoli/cheese soup
1 apple
1 watermelon strawberry snapple - 24o calories, yipe!
peanuts - way too many:(
another donut
Phew. The diet stuff is okay today, as long as I can limit myself to the peanuts on my desk OR a rice cake or beer later...but the excersize pretty much kicked my butt. I only did 10 minutes on the elliptical (ouch) and now my throat is raw and painful. Sigh.
and a mere two hours later, I ate another donut and made myself sad. There is no excuse for two donuts, except that I didn't pack a lunch, and the apple and peanuts were not enough lunch for me. Oh, and I'm too lazy to microwave the soup in my desk drawer.

You are a beautiful person, in a wistful kind of way. If you could, you would spend all your time daydreaming and writing poetry. You are a tragic beauty.
You are sensitive and caring, and you don't take insults well. You don't smile much, but when you do, you really mean it.
People like to be around you because you are a calming influence. You have an appreciation for all things beautiful, and you probably have some potted plants. You also most likely own a cat.
You like Sundays and hot tea. You will spend your entire life yearning for quiet beauty, which is a rarity in this world, so you read a lot.
Everyone you know thinks you're "nice."

3) MAKE MEAL PLANNING EASIER.
Get together with your family members and have each person write down five of his or her favorite main-dish meals. When you're ready to plan your meals each week, simply choose at least one meal from everyone's list. Your family will feel like they each have a say in 'what's for dinner.' It's a fair way to ensure everyone gets one of his or her favorite meals at least once a week, and it will make meal planning easier for you.

Take some lentils. Simmer them for 30-45 minutes (your lentils may vary). Drain.
Saute up some chopped onions, chopped dried apricots (or dried fruit of choice), cinnamon, cumin, paprika and cayenne. Add the lentils and some broth (according to what your couscous pkg says), bring to boil. Add couscous. Cover and remove from heat. Wait 5 minutes. Stir in some chopped parsley and serve.
This makes a good stuffing for eggplants, zucchinis, or roasted peppers. You can substitute drained canned chickpeas if you want it done fast.

loveliest quote ever:
Book Quote
This is a quote from a book of short stories I was reading by Charles de Lint. The book is called Moonlight and Vines and is fantasy based in a contemporary setting. But being a writer, a reader and a knitter, I really wanted to share this to you because this brought such wonderful imagery to mind and really spoke to me. The story this is from is called "The Fields Beyond the Fields". Cross posted to booktards.
"I took great comfort in how the lines of words marched from right to left and down the page, building up into a meaningful structure like rows of knitting. Sweater stories. Mitten poems. Long rambling journal entries like the scarves we used to have when we were kids, scarves that seemed to go on forever."

ty is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cute
would you like some wang with that?
things i hate today:
1. my work computer. dell gx1 running nt 4. we barely even support nt 4, so why the hell are we using it??
2. customers. 297 emails as i type this. i only have time to type becaues my computer takes 5 minutes to open the apps i need.
3. not having enough time to even finish this list.
i hate austin powers, but still...this is kinda funny.

Stephen Cosgrove SERENDIPITY Books
I had a great idea to buy s. books online, hopefully get some doubles so that I could take some and frame them. like cut them up, and put one picture in one side of a double matted frame, and put the words to that page on the other side. cool idea, eh?
finally, i found a yarn, the spectrum batik i need for the isis stole. if only i could find the rest of the suggested yarns, i'd be happy. i may need to place some special orders.
here's the prism bon-bon tapestry color
these crystalite crochet hooks look SO cool.
a funny thing happened when i started searching on yahoo.com...i found even more yarn sites
i cannot find the percentages for trendsetter chateau anywhere. i think deborah bergman just made it up. i know its a blend, but of course it would have been way to helpful for her to include the percentages and the FREAKING YARN WEIGHT in the actual pattern. My love for her is going THIN.
nice site - One Fine Yarn.
I want to make/buy a bumper sticker that says this - got yarn?
Knitter's Review - a great site...I should send them my knitting goddess book.
yarnware is an okay site - i like their selection, but personally think their navigation BLOWS

I like her tarot cards too....I think I would like to make a shrine with tarot imagery. i know just enough to be dangerous. I saw another great book on making books. I think it was at Essentials in Noho. I would love to get it. I would love to make a tarot book. That's a great idea. Or jungian/cambellian archetype pages. with excerpts from their books.

I am Metroplex! Possessed of startling versatility and staggering strength, you are the one everyone depends on as a last resort. In battle, you are a mighty instrument of destructive force, unwavering and ever-valiant when you attack. And for when you are not in battle, you are a helpful and observant protector as Autobot City. But despite your enormous amount of power, you are also extremely modest. You often berate yourself for not being able to contribute more to the Autobot cause. |

remember Dear Mr. Henshaw by Beverly Cleary? I do. I remember the boy's relationship with his dad. His dad drives a big rig, delivering vegetables. I remember broccoli, and that his dad wrote a little song about how you always see only one lonely shoe on the side of the highway. And there is a butterfly garden.

NIN - Queen's "Get Down Make Love"
FW Murnau -- Muranu was know for creating two of the greatest gothic films and
some of the most pervasive and influential images that defined the early gothic scene.
That is from his films "The Cabinet of Dr. Calgari" and "Nosferatu". The cover of
Bauhaus's "Bela Lugosi Is Dead" is taken from that film. Bands like The Cure show
large chunks of "The Cabinet Of Dr. Calgari" before their shows on not one but two
concert tours. The films are some of the greatest silent films ever. If you have never
seen them, rent them tonight.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20):
I dare you to pump up your receptivity, Gemini. I invite you to stoke your hunger for the perceptions and signals you normally filter out; to tune in to the subtexts and overtones of every situation you find yourself in. It may sound simple, but it'll require high levels of courage and willpower. Here are a few hints that might help: Make curiosity your guiding virtue. Intensify your desire to listen - I mean really listen. Be eager to find out what motivates everyone you encounter. Become wildly surprisable.
