and you know i think i wuz very elegant because i learned from my mother.

chanel. the shoes. OH the shoes were like leather.

i learn from her how to dress up, the shoes to wear.

she told me i was no fat, and i was no skinny. and she is something, and i never forget - she say, when you dress up for a woman, never buy a dress too small. you look fat. take a dress with two inch apart, and i did, and i was always (*does a little dance*)

gahlly, my mommy was so elegant...

silk pajama in the long pants.

long diamond earrings.
going to the ball.
But I'm a shamed, I didn't say all that I wanted to say to dem, i BLUB BLUB.

I wasn't tidy.

I didn't have my manicure. My chinon. Dress up nice. Beautiful shoes.

After my wash I always put my green water, l'eau vert. OHHH i was putting it all ova me after my shower. And when i went down there.... GOD LYDIA YOU SMELL GOOD!

Some Americans ask me, "what is that?" "L'eau vert," I say.

Americans, dey don't understand.

I have a goblet small size and then after my shower i rub it around - sooo good. No body knew what it was!

Many man ask me, and no one could find my perfume. My boss say, my god if you knew how much it cost you would not look for! HAHA. But not for me, I was making good money.
