I had to be hospitalized sometime around my 6 month of pregnancy. (BTW the hospital was awesome...I had a view of the Leaning Tower of Pisa from my hospital window!). In the hospital, meals were served in the typical Italian way in courses starting with an antipasti, next the pasta or meat dish, followed by a salad, along with a small bottle of wine. Though the food was great, I refrained from drinking the wine, and would just set the bottle off to the side. After a couple of days, my doctor noticed that I had amassed a small collection of bottles of wine. He asked me why was I not drinking the wine. I thought he was being a smart aleck and replied "Duh, doctor, I"m pregnant!" The doctor looked at me and laughed - loudly. He said "You Americans kill me. Wine is good for you and the baby. The wine has iron in it. You need the iron and the baby needs the iron. A glass of wine with your meals is not going to kill you. Drink the wine." So I did. From that day on, and throughout the rest of my pregnancy, I continued to enjoy a glass of wine with my meals. Today that baby is a very happy, healthy, normal teenager, having suffered no ill effect from the wine I drank while pregnant.

A fan of those sphere lamps too — only the pearl is left. Also like their new Ikat baskets (black and natural) and an iron/glass vase — a touch of black in rooms I always appreciate, grounding. Thanks, Holly, for sharing your top 12 list for WE. If only that tripod white table could be broken down and someone from the states could deliver it to you! sweet choices.

During the time of Nazism, Fraktur, a type of blackletter, was used very much. But in 1941, it was banned for being Jewish somehow. Hitler, on the other hand, thought it was too old-looking: > Your alleged gothic internalisation does not fit well in this age of steel and iron, glass and concrete, of womanly beauty and manly strength, of head raised high and intention defiant... In a hundred years, our language will be the European language. The nations of the east, the north and the west will, to communicate with us, learn our language. The prerequisite for this: The script called Gothic is replaced by the script we have called Latin so far... — Adolf Hitler, 1934, Reichstag Here is [Wikipedia on the Antiqua–Fraktur Very interesting thought.
