It’s Hump Day and the last day in April, plus International Jazz Day. Birthdays: Alice B. Toklas, Annie Dillard, Jane Campion. What fragrance are you wearing?

I’m recovering from a head cold, so commando again today.

Reminder: 5/2: is Our Lady Donatella Versace’s 70th birthday. Wear the last fragrance you purchased, or anything that you think fits the occasion.

And for those of you who like to plan ahead, see Scent of the day ~ Friday community projects 2025, where I’ll try (but usually fail) to have the next five or six weeks mapped out in advance.

Note: top image is Madonna for Versace, I think from 2005.
