{cinderella and lemon meringue pie}

today i’m thinking of making lemon meringue pie. but there’s not much room in the fridge. and who wants a melted pie tomorrow? (unless we eat it all today…)

my Lala called a few minutes ago. hearing her voice makes me happy.

i’ve been reading The Warden (for the 4th time i believe) and it is lovely. ever so lovely. that story reminds me of Cinderella, when really, it has nothing to do in the slightest with her, or her tale for that matter. but it does remind me. and that makes me smile.

(((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))))))

And seizing him by his arm and hand, she followed him across the room towards the door. “I will not leave you ’till you promise me this; I’ll cling to you in the street; I’ll kneel to you before all the people. You shall promise me this; you shall promise me this; you shall——”

-The Warden, by Anthony Trollope.

(((((((((((((((((((((((♥))))))))))))))))))))))))))

i think Trollope was a.m.a.z.i.n.g. his works are some of the most spectacular things i’ve ever read. it’s books like his that make me want to write forever.and ever.and ever.and ever.

(i think Cinderella is a.m.a.z.i.n.g. too).

maybe i will go and make that pie. or maybe tomorrow. or the next day. but maybe today.

meet me here.


i'm Bella.
i love clotheslines, writing, humor, the colour cornflower blue, ballet, baking bread, and freckles.
i collect red lipstick, bowties+neckties, vinyl records, and classic books.
i have J.Crew rainboots, too many {little black dresses}, a good hankering for italiano food everyday, and such a want to go see the opera.
i think boys with their shirtsleeves rolled up are better, Charles Dickens was amazing,vintage is the best, goodwill is the way to go, Church makes everyone hungry, and life is about swing dancing.

that's me in a nutshell.

today.yesterday.tomorrow.
