In fact, it is said that Cleopatra was not a great beauty. Apparently, she didn’t need to be! What a lesson to us all, in this day and age of the image. Given the choice we all have, isn’t it an exciting challenge to make up where the Gods left off? Or perhaps the Gods were specific in their intentions, inciting us to inform ourselves with character and spiritual health.

Cleopatra was Greek. She came from a line of rulers called the Ptolemy, whose reign began at the fall of Alexander the Great. Cleopatra was not only the last of the Egyptian Pharaohs, she was the only one to take the time to learn the Egyptian language.
Early on, she co-ruled with her two brothers, both of whom she married.

Cleopatra won the heart of Julius Caesar, after escaping a near execution from one of those brothers, by presenting herself, rolled up in a fine Persian carpet at Caesar’s feet. Their love affair carried on until his murder.

Though she bore him a son, "Cesarion", the Roman climate did not allow him the throne, and the co-ruler ship fell to Caesar's nephew, Octavion, and (much to Cleopatra's delight) Mark Antony. Oh my what a delicious fellow he was!

This most fabulous of historic sagas continues in another Liquid Metal Story. 'Search' for "Cleopatra's Kiss", coming soon!

Measures 18” x 1”
Port Caramel Covered in Cocoa and Chili Medium (5oz.) The kind of people who follow this unusual blend of tastes, time after time, back into our store, are often the artists, eccentric types, and epicurians. As they are popping a sample into their mouths they always say, "Oh it's not hot at all...oh wait a minute...now I'm beginning to feel a little heat in the back of my throat!" We have these chocolates handmade with just the right amount of spice, so that the average person's palette can handle the spice. Some delicate palettes find them sizzling however.

They are great with a glass of port, with an apple and cheese, or one their own. The combination of sweet chewy caramel, with the distinct chocolate powder roll and then the final Jamaican spice blend dusting the top is like no other candy we have ever tasted. Yes, we've been known to binge on them...regularly!

Our policy is to wrap these up and send it as a gift to a friend, or a gift to yourself.

Alexandria Enter my palace where a world such as you've never seen awaits you; perfumed with cedar and sandalwood, frankincense, roses and cinnamon. I offer you a lounge cushioned with pillows of baby goose down, embellished with gold and silver threaded throws from far away India.

Emerald Waters ~ A Liquid Metal Necklace ~ Within My Loden World

Through Loden I peer Onto vastness, ever changing Amongst sage havens Protected by the fierce howling Calmed by the raging blind wind Calmed by a tormented Sea
Through Loden I stride Hearing that whose source unknown... Finds me Feeds me Foals me And sometimes fails me And yet I follow her
Through Loden I pretend And my steady hand falters As focus drifts by Like a pregnant cloud Who is only a wisp She kisses my skin And taps my bare shoulder Vulnerable yet forgiven
Through Loden will truth find me? Does innocence hide me? Does that which is missing Lead me astray? Is jade a color only? Or jaded, is my innocence Stroked by calloused hands
Through Loden I flourish Waltzing first And suddenly within a dream Within his arms The world never existed If I never awoke I would gladly stay Forever in that moment For I am her melody I am her soul
Through Loden my image is reflected Forbid that time should overcome me... In this game of chess we play Over murky water but still... Bubbles of life are floating Which I taste and fill my lungs
Through Loden Moss too, is frail Upon its bed I lie Cool and moist and living Molding to my curves Sculpted by tiny beings I wonder if they too Question themselves
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By definition, Loden is a particular shade of green. It is named after a water resistant woolen fabric used in Bavaria for capes and jackets. It is not as murky as a forest green, but has more moss to it. It is my favorite green; rich, fragrant, and the one I like most reflected in my eyes. Why, you ask? Because it reminds me of the verdant force within me.
Emerald Waters is worn by those of us who feel poetry; for it is not the words themselves that are important, but how they make you feel when you are reading them.

Oceana Oceana...a mystical woman who loves to tell stories.
Her mysterious voice, romantic songs, and her smile make sitting with her an enchanting experience...and life worth living.

"There lives in the waves, and on the banks of sand where the river meets the ocean, a mass of light so magical, when you walk along the beach, it is like walking through the milky-way. They are a bio-luminescent being that only appear in the late fall in these parts, and their stay is short-lived."

"They flickered brilliantly; like the magic I felt when I was a little girl peering into our December advent calender. All the glitter had fallen from the skies into his blue eyes. His laugh jumped inside me...like his curiosity...and stirred the cells that were inhabiting my soul"
