Zelda Fitzgerald 1900-1948

I have seen the movie  'Midnight in Paris' and was curious about Fitzgeralds. And her life has made me sad... To be a woman is a problem sometimes... Most of my life I have spent happy as a woman. The greatest challenge as a woman that I have experienced is being a mother...But anyway, I wanted to write something else...She is interesting, I mean Zelda...
I like this quotation from the page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zelda_Fitzgerald

When Harper & Brothers asked her to contribute toFavorite Recipes of Famous Women she wrote: "See if there is any bacon, and if there is, ask the cook which pan to fry it in. Then ask if there are any eggs, and if so try and persuade the cook to poach two of them. It is better not to attempt toast, as it burns very easily. Also, in the case of bacon, do not turn the fire too high, or you will have to get out of the house for a week. Serve preferably on china plates, though gold or wood will do if handy"


I liked the german version more:


Während ihrer Pariser Zeit, im Alter von 26 Jahren, entwickelte Zelda eine Begeisterung für das Ballett, welches sie bereits ab ihrem 9. Lebensjahr ausgeübt hatte. Sie trainierte mit immensem Fleiß. Ihre Pariser Ballettlehrerin Ljubow Jegorowa verschaffte ihr an der Oper Neapel ein Engagement als Primaballerina, das Zelda jedoch aus Sorge um ihre Tochter, die in Paris hätte zurückbleiben müssen, nicht annehmen konnte. Scott stand dem Verlangen seiner Frau, Profitänzerin zu werden, ablehnend entgegen.
