Just a tiny bit more Christmas Trivia for you today. The Great Eartha Kitt, she of Santa Baby Fame, died on Christmas Day. Some of you may remember that Eartha's 1953 rendition, the original, ranks up there on my All-Time Christmas Carol List. The clip above is from a 2006 performance for the President and First Lady at the National Christmas Tree behind the White House. Looks like Eartha favored mink throughout her career!

I know...I was so sad to hear about her passing. The world lost another great one.
What a loss...I really loved Eartha as the Cat Woman in the old Batman TV series!
I saw that she passed away - its a whole generation of people we're loosing now.
Wow... she looks GOOD for however old she had to be in that clip. So sad that she's passed on.
Oh and you should SEE Mister Man with the Pop'rs. It's cracking me up how he mixes flavors with everything... his current favorite is chocolate and raspberry in vanilla yogurt. Go fig! :)
