The end of love
This Cohen song is for my sub on the East coast, he admires this singer, musician, songwriter, poet, novelist, painter and of course he also admires My Brownies. He asked me if I knew who Leonard Cohen was? Of course! I replied. This artist is from Westmount, Quebec.
Who could forget Al Pacino performance in the movie “Scent of a Woman” (1992) dancing a tango and monopolizes all the dance floor! Never get tired to watch the video, it’s not the original song from the movie! Nice way to end the month of love (beautiful horses in this video for sub doggie)
Leap Day is also “National Cupcake Day”
Gloves Hide Naked Ring Finger
In some places, leap day has been known as “Bachelors’ Day”, a tradition that is allowing women to propose marriage. A man was expected to pay a penalty, such as a gown or money, if he refused a marriage proposal from a woman on Leap Day.
In many European countries, if a man refuses, he has to buy her 12 pairs of gloves. The intention is that the woman can wear the gloves to hide the embarrassment of not having an engagement ring. During the middle ages there were laws governing this tradition.
Leap year marriages are more likely to fail, a think-thank has claimed, as it is ‘against human nature’ for women to propose to men.
