Monday, Monday

This is pretty much what I'm doing today.

Add in some house chores, chasing after a rambunctious puppy, and you have a pretty good picture of my Monday!

As usual, I'm working on a few things...the crochet project still isn't done, neither is the cross stitch, and we STILL aren't completely unpacked!
So what do I do?
I pick up a book.
Because that is the only thing that makes any logical sense!

In case you didn't know (and were actually believing that youtube is no longer going to allow uploads)
It's April Fool's Day!
I'm just not going to even bother trying to come up with some hoax to play on my poor husband or my more likely victim, my parents (My dad's a little gullible...in an endearing way! LOVE YOU DAD!)
Instead I'm going to enjoy my air conditioned house (yes, we already have it on), my book, my puppy, and be astounded that it's actually April! Can you believe the year is going by so fast??
But I wish you luck in your pranking endeavors and I hope I'll hear of some wickedly delicious schemes, come tomorrow!

In the mean time, I hope you have a lovely spring day and I'll see you all soon!

Less Than Three,
Sarah

What is Elegant?

So, my question is, when and why did this go out of style? Rita Hayworth is the epitome of GORGEOUS!
I wonder if many of you will even know who she is?
Rita is one of the American Film Institute's "Greatest Stars of All Time" she is absolutely iconic!
Today I am grateful that I grew up with parents who loved old movies and the culture of the 40's and 50's!
I grew up wanting to be Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, Rita Hayworth, Cyd Charisse, and so many other classic women!
Never did I want to be a Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian. And I'm so grateful for that!
I think the world forgot elegance and everything it meant. I think we need it back!
It's more than just curling your hair or painting some red on your lips, it's about having values and treating people with kindness, courtesy, and inner beauty. When did it become popular and cool to shun all of that?
So today I hope you have a beautiful day! Filled with all the wonderful and beautiful things we seem to take for granted!

Less Than Three,

For those of you who have no idea who any of those women are, here are a few videos!

This one is Cyd Carisse:



Grace Kelly:
P.S. I want that swimsuit and coverup...not gonna lie...



Audrey Hepburn:
(quick fun fact, the part where Gregory Peck puts his hand in the mouth of truth, Audrey Hepburn didn't know the cameras were rolling so that is her honest reaction...)



Rita Hayworth:



And because I couldn't help myself, here's another one:
