Yesterday I had a wonderful surprise from my friend Ulla, who gave me a very special gift in celebration of my anniversary. Wow! I was speechless. A beautiful scene with a couple embracing in a glittering paper moon adorned the package. Inside I found one of Ulla's gorgeous soldered glass pendant necklaces: a fan and geisha. What a beautiful gift, it means a lot to me! Ulla is a fantastic teacher and artist and a very generous soul, always sharing her ideas and know how through her blog or by teaching at Castle in the Air. She is also the inspiration that got me started on this blog.
The beautiful image of the couple on the paper moon reminded me of one of Scott's and mine favorite song , which you can listen to, if you click on the link:
It's Only A Paper Moon
Performed by Cliff Edwards in 1933
Written by Billy Rose, Yip Harburg and Harold Arlen
Say, its only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
