Marilyn in March


I dressed up as the beautiful Marilyn Monroe for an Old Hollywood murder mystery party recently. As I researched my part, I became a fan of this lovely lady who was often misunderstood, had incredible style, and wit for days longer than she lived. She would have been the tabloids' dream, so here is a list of some of my favorite Marilyn quotes -
  • Dogs never bite me. Just humans.

  • Dreaming about being an actress is more exciting than being one.

  • Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you $1000 for a kiss and 50 cents for your soul.

  • Husbands are chiefly good as lovers when they are betraying their wives.

  • I am not interested in money. I just want to be wonderful.

  • I don't know who invented high heels, but all women owe him a lot.

  • I don't mind living in a man's world, as long as I can be a woman in it.

  • A career is wonderful, but you can't curl up with it on a cold night.

  • I've been on a calendar, but I've never been on time.

  • No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl. All little girls should be told they're pretty, even if they aren't.

Women Serenade


An oldie but a goodie -
Women are like the apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The boys don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't as good but easy. So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them when in reality, they are amazing! They have to wait for the right guy to come along. The one who is brave enough to climb to the top of the tree... Therefore, YOU are considered one of the prettiest and most phenomenal women I know.
