Memoir Title Meme

I was tagged by The Friendly Neighborhood Piper for this meme.

The meme has the following rules:

1 – Write the title to your own memoir using exactly six words.

2 – Post it on your blog.

3 – Link to the person who tagged you.

4 – Tag five other bloggers.

What a kick! I have a couple of pages of possible titles. This was loads of fun. I'm sharing a few of my choices.

Life Lessons Learned from 80s Music

Death & Demons, Redemption & Glory

But What Would Jane Austen Do?

Clearly, I Wasn't My Mother's Favorite

I Think That Girl Talks Funny

Come On, You Really Believed That?

The Single Girl's Guide to Eternity

Finally, my top three choices:

#3 Why is She Laughing So Loud?

#2 Complicated Journey to the Simple Life

And the winning title of my memoir is:

#1 I'm Just Here for the Food

Thanks, Jay, that was a gas! So, now, I'm spreadin' the love. I tag:

Vintage Vagary

They say "Diamonds are a girl's best friend." I have no friends. I don't plan on owning any diamonds. I can appreciate fine jewels, but the cost considered over probability of misplacing is too great. I have owned diamonds & I have to say, they are not anymore precious to me than the cheap. (My apologies to Marilyn & all you other diamond buffs.) I am more of a costume-jewelry type. I can buy loads of the fake stuff for the cost of the real deal. My husband will no doubt (with bewilderment) appreciate my thriftiness. Now, this is not to say that I don't like jewelry. I most definitely do, especially the vintage stuff. I checked out "Hollywood Jewels" from the library. WOW! I may have to purchase it. This book showcases the most stunning, vintage jewelry. If you love the old stuff, check it out!




I do love vintage things, especially the stuff from the 1950s. This includes movies, fashion, advertising, books, cars, home decor, architecture, music, etc. I found a 50s wiggle dress that I would absolutely love to wear. Sadly, my measurements don't coincide with that of the dress. I think the 1950s ladies didn't eat because most of the waistlines from that era are teeny! So, I'll pass this find onto you. Since I can't wear it, I would love to see you in it! (This, of course, is excluding Jay) Buy it here! The dress sizzles & sings, & no doubt you will too!

Let's Get Poppin'

May you all have a great

Independence Day.

May you enjoy your

fireworks displays.

May your cookouts

be even more spectacular.

May your ears truly

hear freedom ringing.

She's up there-Old Glory-where lightnings are sped,
She dazzles the nations with ripples of red,
And she'll wave for us living, or droop o'er us dead-
The Flag of our country forever.
-F.L. Stanton

If you see truth, you shall see glory.

New Car Smell

This is my new car.

We went car shopping today.

I was under the impression

that shopping for a new car

would be loads of fun.

NOT!

Also...

Rye wouldn't ride home

in the new car.

I asked him why.

He said,

"It smells funny."
