RIP, Miss Truly Scrumptious...
Sally Ann Howes (20 July 1930 – 19 December 2021)
CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."

How can you tell I'm under a spell?
Gosh. Miss Truly Scrumptious is 90 years old today! Any excuse to play this wonderful number...
What do you see
You people gazing at me
You see a doll on a music box
That's wound by a key
How can you tell
I'm under a spell?
I'm waiting for love's first kiss
You cannot see
How much I long to be free
Turning around on this music box
That's wound by a key
Yearning
Yearning
While
I'm turning around and around
Love it.
Happy birthday, Miss Sally Ann Howes (born 20th July 1930).
