Sleeping Beauty: A Gothic Romance (ballet) by Matthew Bourne


One of my Christmas presents is Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty, a ballet that has a Gothic feel in the fairy and vampire tradition. You can read more about it here. Or watch a teaser video here.

  2. It's lovely to have you drop in on Lawn Tea---thank you for your comments. You know, I don't think I've ever been present when Apple Butter was made---I just recall the spicy scent which contributed to that unique aroma which surrounded the "Fruit House" where all my Mammaw's home-canned goods were kept.

    It's VERY popular here in the Heartland. I always thought of it as maybe a Winter-breakfast item, but the very first company picnic we went to when we moved here featured fried chicken with those "pop-it" biscuits dropped right into the same fryer, and passed around crisp and steamy-hot with big bowls of the spicy brown apple butter topping.

    We went to the Butler Ballet Nutcracker this past weekend, and it was magnificent.

  3. Laura: I was so surprised that I did not already know about this ballet version of Sleeping Beauty. It's beautiful and my fairies are just as dark! LOL!

  4. I found some on the shelf in the store. It's like apples with the same spicing as in a pie. You are right. Good for winter and toast.
