Candle, matches, saying "Proust" (nice one, Magdelanye) and thinking of Mary Anne's pistachio shortbread madelines.

Petra | 1146 comments Well, I figure I'm late, so I lit my candle, sang my song, raised my glass of lemonade and prousted Proust.

Happy Birthday, Marcel Proust! May you continue to bring enjoyment with your works for many years to come.

message 13: by Petra (new)

Petra | 1146 comments It's been a year already?
A peaceful, belated birthday, Marcel Proust.


message 14: by Mary Anne (new)

Mary Anne | 210 comments I wonder with whom Proust has tea and madeleines and with whom he lingers to talk all night.
Tomorrow is Emily Bronte's birthday.


message 15: by Petra (new)

Petra | 1146 comments I loved Wuthering Heights.
I wonder how best to celebrate her birthday. I know nothing of her life.

Petra | 1146 comments Proust is surrounded by famous and interesting people in his resting place. They must have amazing parties, birthday and otherwise.
If there is a ghostly afterlife, that's the cemetery to be buried in.


message 17: by Mary Anne (new)

Mary Anne | 210 comments I hope to be buried, if not in that cemetery, then at least the adjacent one.
