G is for Gloaming

I was very young when I saw this on TV one night and then have watched it every time it’s come on since. I’m a sucker for old movies, especially musicals–especially Gene Kelly (who reminds me of my Dad) and Fred Astaire (who is just debonaire)

I remember going to look up gloaming and then casually dropping it into my sentences. I tended to sound like I swallowed a dictionary at the age of about 9 or 10, the age my daughter is now. It’s way cuter on her though.

In honor of gloaming:

 

Gloaming: the part of the day after the sun has gone down and before the sky is completely dark
