I am staunch!




"But you see in dealing with me, the relatives didn't know that they were dealing with a staunch character and I tell you if there's anything worse than dealing with a staunch woman... S-T-A-U-N-C-H. There's nothing worse, I'm telling you. They don't weaken, no matter what."
~Edith "Little Edie" Bouvier Beale

(Apparently I had a one too many cocktails, and did my Little Edie impression at the family Christmas gathering. Good thing Hubby captured it on film.......or not.)

If you haven't seen Grey Gardens, I highly recommend you do, dahling! And do see the newer HBO version, as well.

It was a very Barry Christmas, y'all.

Before my daughter was born my father brought her a beautiful silk Burberry dress from London. That first Christmas she wore the dress for our card photo, and a tradition began...
