fried green tomatoes

And then there was Fried Green Tomatoes featuring two women in love, making it, alas yes a lesbian dies in the end but one lives!  And they kill the bad guy, It was damn beautiful. 1991. I was 38.

Girl crushes for me started very young. There was the butch at Braymiller's feed store, 1958. Susan Hayward was my favorite Saturday Matinee Movie Star, and I had a crush on Barbara Stanwyck. Then at Grier, my all girl boarding school. Dino, or Denise Schneider, I never tired of her company. She was very kind. Until she dropped out of sight after graduation and I never heard from her again.
