WOW! These things just keep getting better and better.

First, we went to The Grove/Farmer's Market for some play time and to pick up picnic supplies. (We also went to the Organized Living Going Out of Business 70% off sale.) That was a very relaxing and fun several hours.

Then, we headed over to the cemetery to get in the queue. We parked the car then headed over to find our spot for the evening. On the way, BlueErica and I spotted the coolest gravestone. It looked just like the Moonliner from afar, when in fact, it was a missille. We really need to wander the cemetery during the day. It's such a a cool place!

We set up "camp", opened our wine, French lemonade, 4 different gourmet cheeses, lots of fruit, 3 types of fresh bread, 3 types of meat, and luscious desserts - including some VERY expensive but great Ginger biscuits.

The film started at 9 and began with a short film about the restoration of the cemetery, then it was on to Breakfast at Tiffany's. It's been a while since I've seen the film and, as I remember, it was absolutely superb.

We were in the midst of the film when Ms. Hepburn says to George Peppard "How do I look?" He replies, "Very good! I must say I'm amazed". Chris and I looked at each other in our own amazement because this is a sound bite used in a "Dimitri from Paris" song. Later in the film Patricial Neals says "I AM a very stylish girl" - ANOTHER line used in the song.

Did I mention that Dimitri from Paris is tres swank?

The song is called Une Very Stylish Fille and you can hear a bit here

So, yes, we swanked it up a bit last night. Much more than we intended. Unintentional Swank.......I like the sound of that.
