Actially, it is the "House of Seven Beagles", a treatment Panni is doing for Disney.

Not to be confused with Bergman's House of Sven Beagles.

Other favorite Mrs. Brice quotes:

MRS. BRICE (as Fanny is "helping" her play a game of solitaire): You wanna play, get a deck.

~~~~~~~~~~~

MRS. BRICE (Spying Nick Arnstein playing cards with her kaffeklatsch): I think he's played before, this Mr. Arnstein.

EDDIE RYAN (I think): Why?

MRS. BRICE: The way he looks to home.....

Kay Medford is one of those actresses I really really like in some roles....but in others....ugh!

Remember that My Three Sons/Family Affair spinoff set in Rome....I think it was called TO ROME WITH LOVE or some such, with John Forsythe living in Rome with his three daughters and his sister or sister-in-law played by Medford? Mensch does not begin to describe how this character was written...she caused chaos, havoc and sorrow in every episode of this mercifully short-lived show.

Speaking of whom...does anybody remember Baby Snooks?

Of course... Hanley Stafford was Daddy and her baby brother wos Rogespierre (spelling?). I have several episodes on cassette.

Congratulations and Welcomes to DRs where appropriate.

Part of the reason I mention the challah baking, is that the recipe I was following referred to the fomenting yeast and some other ingredients as a "sponge." Which reminded me of one of my other favorite FGIRL quotes:

FANNY (Watching Nick absorb her Henry Street neighborhood and friends, after an admonition from her mother): He's a gentleman. A gentleman fits in anywhere.

MRS. BRICE (delivered as only Kay Medford could): A sponge fits in anywhere!

DR Stuart,

That's one of mine too - and I've quoted Mrs. Brice over the years. Her other gem, and the quote may not be precise: "a stranger should be a little strange."

I knew I forgot one!

My memory of it is: "A stranger should act a little strange."

And another fave, especially when we are eating...well, just about anything off the grill, or when the DP has a hankering for ribs:

SCARLET: Why, Charles Hamilton, I want to eat barbeque with you!

May I help?

“I have a lump in my throat and a hump on my dress!”

“And I’m not miserable. I’m an artist. I am creatively unhappy.”

“It’s been an evening of ups and downs – Care to continue the motion?”

Dan-in-Toronto · « **Reply #133 on:** September 07, 2004, 02:26:08 PM »

Stuart,

That's much more like it (the Kay Medford line).

I assumed Kay Medford was Jewish, then read that she was born Maggie O'Regin. (Nancy Walker is another actress who does a great Jewish mother.)

And finally: (I found these all at www.moviequotes.com)

Patrick: Who's that English lady?

Mame: Vera's not English, dear, she's from Pittsburgh.

Patrick: She sounds English.

Mame: Well, when you're from Pittsburgh you have to do something.

Stuart I’m impressed. I should get moving and bake some Challah.

Jennifer, you just made me feel good and I needed that just now.

JRand I wouldn’t have a clue what I threw out even if it was the very cute Bobby Sherman.

When I returned to bed early this morning sleep still eluded me. At the moment I’m ready for a nap which, I hope, explains the all time dumbest question I have ever asked.

Keith is working on my family genealogy. Today several birth and death certificates arrived from Wales, including the death certificate of my great-grandmother. When Keith told me she died of constitutional syphilis I was so shocked I said something about how awful and then asked if she had children.

Keith was leaving the room as I asked the question, stopped, gave me a rather odd look,

then we both started laughing.

Honest, I meant did she have children with syphilis.

Tomovoz · « **Reply #141 on:** September 07, 2004, 03:11:46 PM »

Thank you for the breakfast laugh Jane. I just told that gem to Colin

Jane · « **Reply #142 on:** September 07, 2004, 03:15:50 PM »

My pleasure and Keith's who insisted I tell the story.

Dan-in-Toronto · « **Reply #143 on:** September 07, 2004, 03:25:00 PM »

Jane, that's a riot. Thanks.

I still have copies of the Archies' "Sugar, Sugar" and The Jackson 5's "ABC" that were cut off of boxes of Post Sugar Crisps.

Oh, man! I had the Sugar Sugar one too...cardboard, from the back of the cereal box...I thought it was so cool when I was a kid that I could play a cardboard record!
