"Week-end Reading"



This week-end I will be reading a book I started this past week, entitled "A Deadly Cliche' " by Ellery Adams. It's just a little cozy mystery. And of course a book with a poodle on the cover, how could I resist this book. It is so cute, because in this book, the owner of the dog is Olivia, and the dogs name is Haviland. 
Remember the movie star of the 30s, and 40s. Her name was Olivia De Haviland. She won two Oscars one in 1946 and one in 1949. She also won an Oscar for best supporting actress for her role in "Gone With The Wind," as Melanie Hamilton Wilkes. She was born on July, 1, 1916. She is still living and is 95 years old. Just thought I would throw that in for the fun of it.

  2. Thats interesting that your book is tied in with Olivia De Haviland's name. GWTW is one of my favorite movies. Go Miss De Haviland! 95! wow.
