New to Suite U.. May I kindly be included when
you all truck up to the Vermont doorstep of Tasha
Tudor? I have been a fan of hers for a number of
years and although I do not think I shall ever be
just like her when I grow up (she is too unique and from a singular mold), I believe her spirit of
individualism and tenacity would be within the
reach of many of us. A wonderful excercise would
be listing those women whom one wanted to finally emulate when grown up and examining the admired characteristics they held in common. It would be telling; what elements could lead to one's personal fullfillment? The seeds already there, seeking affirmation and nurturing or their fruition already existing, waiting to be ripened and absorbed. You can or have become those whom you admire..
Such an exercise might also disclose the fabric
of one's soul as a profile under which the ideal
could be layered and compared. Tasha Tudor talks
about all sorts of people she admired in her growing up and as you listen to her tape you
recognize that she adopted their gifts as her own and made them the sum of her existence, and
what an enchanting existence it is.
If you ladies have not already gone to Vermont,
my passport is at the ready when you do...
