So here's one delight: The tale begins, "In olden times when wishing still helped one...." Isn't that a great phrase--melancholy and nostalgic, but great?
And one surprise: The frog does not transform back into a prince because the princess kisses him but rather because she throws him against a wall!!
Though it's obviously not a good thing to be thrown against a wall, here's a hurrah for unexpected twists and turns in traditional tales!

Dear one-good-thing-bogger!
Today I received a postcard from you through postcrossing; so nice!
I wish you at least one-good-thing every day!
Nads from Switzerland
Thank you, Nads--I hope you've had a great day yourself!
We saw JULIE AND JULIA today, which I loved! It's as much about blogging as it is about cooking.
I really enjoyed JULIE AND JULIA, too--especially the Julia parts!
