Doris

Watching Julie & Julia this evening, I fell in love with the Doris Day song used in the film, "A Bushel and a Peck." It's so light and cute. Doris Day songs always make me feel girly and carefree. "Que Sera Sera" or "April Love" - music from days of yore. If you are like me and adore songs from the 40s, 50s, and 60s, do check out the music of Doris Day. Also, I enjoy her movies like Calamity Jane, By the Light of the Silvery Moon, and of course of all her films with Rock Hudson (Pillow Talk, anyone?)! She's a true cinematic and musical icon.

  5. What a beautiful photo of her, I love the song as well. Up until I visited an apple orchard last year I didn't know what a bushel and a peck was! Here are the images: http://fromme-toyou.tumblr.com/post/207610459/apple-orchard
