Carmen


I have now surpassed Carmen Miranda's age when she died of a heart attack. She was an amazing artist, full of incredible energy and creativity. Did you know she designed those outfits herself? If you haven't sat down for a Carmen Miranda Marathon, you owe it to your funny bone to do so, ending with (or should you start with?) the very strange and wonderful The Gang's All Here. I just love her.
