aragona sale...V-Day recc's

[ellenkushner]

Well, Delia & I are off to Paris for Valentine's Day (and a few others)! Before I go, here's a link to a "Blue Moon" sale of goodies for your sweetie (including your sweet self) by Jodie Aragona, a jewelry designer/artist whose work I've mentioned in the past (& as a thank you for that, she sent me the world's most amazingly exquisite necklace! greyish pearls with a small pendant of apatite, peach tourmaline & tanzanite - it's as if she looked into my brain and pulled out something I loved but would never have the nerve to buy myself! In the excitement of the holidays, I forgot to write about this, so I'm doing it now. Delia is bound & determined that we will stay away from internet/e-mail while we're away in our 17c garret w/skyline, which will be lovely but makes me think that I have to write every single note for the past 6 months before we go!) Don't be scared by Jody's high-end pieces; one of the prettiest necklaces there, I think, is this one, on sale for $95 from $185. There's range.

So anyway, forgive me if I don't answer lovely comments right away. I read and appreciate!

Oh, and while you're ignoring Valentine's Day, check out Racheline Maltese's newest column for gather.com, listing "some of my favourite SF/F couples and relationships – some functional, some not, but all compelling and all personally meaningful to me in some way" - also my Sound & Spirit program on Breakups (an award-winner that a lot of listeners said made them feel better - co-written by our very own larbalestier way back when) - and, for the Romantics, My Better Half (co-written with Titi Ngwenya) and What I Did for Love (written w/Barbara Baig - yeah, the girls all had fun together on all these!).

I'm trying to ignore V-day, but I may listen to the "Breakups" show :p

Awww! Les city of l'amour! Have an amazing time, ya'll! My Mama says that the champagne in Paris is the best in the world...like Sprite, even! X3! Happy Valentine's Day in advance!

(And to think, for a moment I thought you had meant Paris, Kentucky. Oooof course not. XD!)
