♥ cat on a hot tin roof.

yesterday was talula's fourth birthday,

so we celebrated with cat treats and tunafish.

and while it was an altogether happy day,

it was also sad to lose a much-loved actress, elizabeth taylor.

i must admit, besides the old version of little women (1949),

and the white diamonds commercial, which i sometimes like to

re-enact- pretending to remove my diamond earrings and hand

them off to a table-full of handsome gamblers, while saying,

"these have always brought me luck--"

i don't know much about this truly remarkable lady.

and so, better late than never, i watched

cat on a hot tin roof (1958) this evening and loved it.

as my friend, sarah says, "swoon.." they really don't

make dramas like they used to-- or actresses,

for that matter.
