Re: My Little Golden Book About George Washington Eboo Memory Schacchi Star

Well, in this movie, senior citizens were trying to find love, or at least some passion, although it seemed kind of lacklustre, which I think might have had something to do with the young director, Brett Haley. He was born in 1983, so how would he comprehend possible passion experienced by anyone over 50?
Some time ago, a dear friend told me about her attempt at online dating for seniors. One hears plenty stories about love being found on the net, whilst many experience the torture of con artists lying in wait to part lonely souls from their cash. She wanted to head for the hills after the first week of her trial run on the dating site. Why, pray ask? She is a gorgeous woman and looks younger than her passport would claim. So, finding admirers was not difficult.

So, before we start singing Kumbaya, the authentic, sincere soul will live a happier life by not trying to be the hero but to embrace all it comprises to be happy with our own company and in our skin, which is indeed the greatest love of all.
One of the iconic Hollywood love stories must be that of the late Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, now aged 94. They were well-matched as partners and admitted they had a fantastic physical attraction for each other. However, in the end, Joanne claimed the most lasting quality of their relationship was being best friends. Living with someone who could make you laugh out loud every day, as passion subsides with age, was the key.
Melbourne offers a plethora of discerning dining choices and Waterfront in Southgate overlooking the Yarra River, which I have reviewed before but keep returning to, ticks all the boxes for city dining. A cosmopolitan vibe, where tourists and locals blend happily, a spectacular view of this beautiful, liveable city and its Yarra River flowing towards the nearby bay, excellent service, and world-class food.
During my most recent visit, I indulged in the whole snapper, served with golden chat potatoes, and carrots with walnuts as a side. The complimentary fresh sourdough bread, served with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and clam chowder, proved ideal to start with.
This is Tau Game Lodge, a five-star safari gem situated on the far northern border of South Africa, in the malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve, bordering the wilds of Botswana. Madikwe is the fourth largest game reserve in the country.
Money Monster, released in 2016, stars George Clooney and Julia Roberts. Brilliantly directed by Jodie Foster, who certainly did her research on fingerprints on the money market system and Wall Street.
Widows, a 2018 film, stars Viola Davis, Liam Neeson, Elizabeth Debicki, Michelle Rodriguez, Colin Farrell, and Jacki Weaver. A gritty take on the wives of criminal husbands having to fight for survival when they are unexpectedly widowed.
I have always loved autumn and its golden hues, and this year seems to be particularly magical as autumn is lingering, whereby summer did not end abruptly to promptly spill into the winter chill. Milder days and colder nights make for creative seasonal layering, which I simply adore.
Old faithfuls, like form-fitting knits teamed with pleated trousers, and big knits paired with form-fitting longer skirts and wide-leg pants, are back in vogue. So, my advice is to look at your existing wardrobe before acquiring new items to elevate an enduring look with panache.
Pictured above: Mixing textures and designs, such as tartans, plaid, and animal print, could turn a neutral outfit into a showstopper. The idea is to have fun, and feel fabulous at any age. Sometimes we want to be bold, and sometimes we want to go classic and classy. Expressing our mood is part of the fun. The little leather jacket will never leave my fashion plate, neither would the Navajo poncho and hat, as mixing and matching are made easy. Wearing my old, with the newest items comprising: the maxi knitted skirt set in marble @Decjuba, and the striped top and comfy knit in raisin @Witcheryfashion.
So, my message to those looking at us with dollar signs in their eyes and categorising us in these macabre, hardened gladiator-type roles of life, holding a bottle of whiskey in one hand and a smoking gun in the other, get real.
My message to those women who still feel invisible, think about what would make you happy and fulfilled, strategize your plan to feel and look lovely and desirable! Why not start by booking a spa pamper day to reawaken your feminine spirit. Just look at Dame Joan Collins at 90! Feminine, elegant, sexy, feisty, cheeky, funny, smart as a whip, and still embracing every nuance of life. Cheers to that.
The Collagen Company recently asked me to review and post their collagen peptide shakes, promising thicker, healthier hair, glowing, hydrated skin, stronger nails, and healthy joints, on social media.
I tested the refreshing Purple Grape shake they sent me for a week to see if my skin would respond, knowing nails and hair would take longer, as my joints still seem lubricated, thank ye gods, and I wish to maintain their moving smoothly, of course.
Pictured above: one glass of water, two scoops, stir, delicious! The Australian produced collagen shake contains: hyaluronic acid, Vitamin C, and biotin (vitamin B7). Beauty starts from the inside to get the glow.
Frankston Arts Centre, The Michael Jackson History Show, on a countrywide tour to pay tribute to the late King of Pop, blew me away! The reviews were glowing, so my Aussie bestie and I set off for a night of MJ fun.
I adore being a tourist in my own city, and cruising to Williamstown had been on my living a good life list (notice I do not say bucket list after a sweet friend told me we were not ready to kick the bucket), for many years and I finally got to experience it with my dearest Aussie friend Rika. Suffice to say, this enchanting adventure will not be ticked off the list as I intend returning there again, and again!
We booked online for Melbourne Ferry Cruises and embarked at Southbank Promenade near the arts precinct, sailing down the Yarra River on a perfect autumn day into the tranquil bay, past the docks and Station Pier Cruise Ship Terminal. It felt like a holiday!
The historical architecture and cosmopolitan eateries, which mostly spill out onto the sidewalks, make for a day-trip to rhapsodise over for years to come, not to mention the photographic landmarks and overall grace of the town and its friendly people.
This is Tau Game Lodge, a five-star safari gem situated on the far northern region of South Africa, in the malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve, bordering the wilds of Botswana. Madikwe is the fourth largest game reserve in the country.
The lodge has a ranger who is a professional photographer to teach wildlife photography to guests using cameras. He also photographs guests to further enhance and personalise their magical safari memories by arrangement, subject to availability.
Summer in the Italian Alps with an out-of-Africa safari lodge vibe could be the answer for anyone hankering for something completely different in the Northern Italian town of Bolzano.
The impeccable fusion of Africa meets a Tyrolean chalet in the magnificent mountains of the Italian Alps, is pure rustic chic, embraced further through the authentic cuisine by chef Hannes Pignater, whereby almost all the ingredients are harvested or reared within mere metres of Adler Lodge Ritten.
The indoor-outdoor saltwater infinity pool with a panoramic vista of the majestic Dolomite Mountains, luxurious spa cabins, and saunas in the pine-scented forest, make for a romantic slice of paradise.
As a victim of cyber identity theft a few years ago, this one gets my vote! My images were stolen from my Instagram fashion page and used to create a false identity in the US, scamming vulnerable older men of thousands of dollars on mature dating sites during the time of Covid lockdowns. I had never subscribed to these sites but some victims and their children found me via my blog by utilised facial tracking on Google, thereby alerting me about my face being worth thousands, but not in a good way!
Oppenheimer, 2024, deserved all its nominations and awards, and more! Cillian Murphy is perfectly cast, superbly supported by Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jnr, and Matt Damon. Tom Conti is a convincing Einstein too. Labelled the Manhattan Project, developing the atomic bomb at Los Alamos, which resulted in the bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945 after the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbour in 1941.
The English Patient is still a superb movie based on the 1992 book by Michael Ondaatje, starring Ralph Fiennes, Juliette Binoche, Kristin Scott Thomas, Willem Dafoe, and Colin Firth. Breathtaking locations of Tunisia and Tuscany. I cried again.
Ah, and then there is the soft, warm, woollen vest, which creates a mood of luxe class, and when worn over a soft silky shirt, it makes a statement for any occasion. The knitted vest is also uber practical as it works so well when the weather turns chilly. Worn under a blazer or coat, it certainly keeps the torso snug and when we remove the top layer when indoors, it is comfortable as our arms are not overheating with that second layer.
I do hear her lovely voice and feel her light around me and this is certainly helping me process the passing of my soul sister, who was like a second mom, best friend, shopping buddy, girlie lunch pal, and all-round champion.
She could have been a Dior model or Miss World back in the day. She did a lot of ramp and photographic modelling work but it was always a part-time job, second to her working as a bank teller. She was my style icon. My earliest fashion memory was of her wearing a below the knee-length black woollen dress and black stiletto heels. The dress had long sleeves and she wore her hair up in a classic French twist. She looked like a movie star and I wanted to be just like her when I grew up! I was about 12.
She was elated being a mother to her two children, Jaco and Anri. She had waited so long to have them. Fast forward, when her children were grown. She was a dutiful wife to husband Koot. Her grandchildren made her so proud.
