Sisterchicks Say Ooh La La! (2011)
“My best friend, Amy, likes to say her first words as a baby were, “Ooh la la!”
She also says her Parisian grandmere taught Amy to say merci instead of thank you and to walk with her shoulders back and her chin forward. From the day I met her, she always has carried herself with a ballerina-like posture. If it’s possible for a woman to be elegant at age eight, Amy was.
Amy arrived in our uncouth corner of Memphis in the middle of our third-grade year. She moved into the big brick house on Forres...t Avenue with her mother and grandmother. Her mother had flawless creamy skin that made me want to touch her face and hands. Her grandmere spoke only French and wore an expensive perfume that, whenever I got close to her, came home with me in a pillowy after-cloud. At my house, I was the youngest of five and the only girl. Stepping into Amy’s pink palace of femininity was my first brush with bliss.
The day Amy entered our class as the new girl, during roll call I studied her long raven tresses.MoreLess
