I'm currently re-reading a lot of classics and books I sped through at school or uni without really appreciating properly or reading for pleasure - you definitely pick up on something different every time.

We used to go to The Maisonette Room at the St. Regis to see some great great talent, and sometimes we would stop in the King Cole if we were early for our reservation...! The Maisonette was a Beautiful room....Does it still exist? Probably not. So many of those truly wonderful special Rooms fell out of favor for some reason. The Persian Room was another GREAT Hotel Show Room. I actually have a picture or two from one of those visits---The Camera Lady would come around and take pictures of your table and right after the show ended, the pictures would be ready and she would bring them around to the table....They were certainly reasonable enough, and a lovely way to remember the evening...! Another time...very civilized and beautiful!

I miss these types of windows here during the holiday season – we only have “malls” around here, so no windows. <br />I have not read to Kill a Mockingbird yet, but my husband has the book – I’ll put it on my reading list. I was trying to re-read my old French books – went through Colette and now maybe Camus (no, I am not going alphabetically.) While in Nice, France, in October I found “La Confession d’un enfant du siècle” (confession of a child of the century) by Alfred de Musset. It is the only novel he wrote (in 1836 when he was 26.) It sounds interesting – slightly biographical – talking about his affair with George Sand.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341308729189935273.post-29554372722433401522012-12-11T21:51:25.148-05:002012-12-11T21:51:25.148-05:00It's killing me that I can't really captur...It's killing me that I can't really capture how cool these windows look.
