I finished the book, its most interesting aspect the friendship between the main character, cook-turned-writer, and his friend Frida.
A print from a calendar or magazine was mailed to me months ago by my friend J, and is tacked up on the basement door. It is Kahlo's painting, Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird.
I see it every time I come into the kitchen from the porch, and maybe that is why I don't see it.
I fell in love with the handmade Frida Kahlo doll made for Cathy B by a dear friend, a mutual friend who went on to sew me a doll with my mom's physical characteristics.
From the library, a book showcasing some of Kahlo's belongings or collections is coming my way.
Meanwhile, I poke around on the internet.
