Enchanted April

I have a confession to make. if you ask me where i got the name for my business (Lemoncholy's), i will tell you that i got it from the movie, Enchanted April. in the movie, one of the actress says that she was feeling a little "lemoncholy". i thought that was so cute. but over the years, i started wondering, did she really say that or did i just think she said that. i kept meaning to rewatch the movie to find out. well last night, the movie was on tv, so i set out to discover the truth. i had to wait until the very end of the movie to find out and guess what she said?

she said she was feeling, meloncholy!

so how is it that i thought she said otherwise?did i just remember it wrong? my husband said i remembered it the way i wanted to and thus created my own little name. but regardless, it makes a cute little story.

  6. hahah that is so funny. Enchanted April is one of my mom's favorite movies - and over Christmas when I gave her the necklace you made her I was telling her your store was called Lemoncholy's - from Enchanted April. And she was like...I've watched that a million times and I don't remember that part! Haha! I didn't know either way, I saw it about twice, years ago hehe.

  11. Funny story!
    I always thought it was from Under the Tuscan Sun..isn't that what the guy's family that she dated made for a living??? Kind of a Lemon Wine?

  14. I love jumbled up fun words and sayings like "flutterby" instead of "butterfly".

    Lemoncholy is such a happy accident! Thanks for sharing how it came to be. : )

  16. This is really funny, because many a moon ago I told Beloved that I couldn't remember anyone in the movie mentioning Lemoncholy, but that I thought you created the word from Melancholy. Growing up with a dislexic child elephant was elsephant, and magazine mazagine so to imagine Lemoncholy from Melancholy wasn't that much of a stretch. I am glad you are not dislexic but inspired, LOL.
