New Moon = Little Red + The Wolf

As many of you know, I'm always on the lookout for Twilight related items for sale on the net. Last year, before Etsy exploded with Twilight sellers, I went searching for anything with apples on it because Twilight = Apples to me and I did find a few very cute clips, jewelry and prints that I partook of. There were also a few Snow White-ish things I thought were very appropriate...the irresistable apple you just have to bite.

This year, with New Moon in production, my thoughts have turned to a new fairytale.... Little Red Riding Hood and her Big, Bad Wolf.

I just bought this brooch from eyeofthetiger

Catherine Hardwicke made a little side comment in her Director's Notebook about how cool she thought it was that all the trainers for the wolves used in the flashback sequence of Twilight were female. She said, "We've come a long way since Little Red Riding Hood, baby." So of course, this got me thinking about Jacob and his wolfy self, how one can compare him to Little Red's Wolf. He's after Bella just like the Big Bad One was after Red Riding Hood. Sure, he doesn't chase her through the forest or eat her family, but he IS after her. He knows the cat's away and now the wolf can play. He's not afraid to indulge Bella's dangerous fantasies.

Afterall, I like to think of Little Red + The Wolf as friends. She in her red hooded cape taking a stroll through the forest with her canine pal tagging along at her feet.

My personal favorite, Tori Amos as Red Riding Hood. Does it even get better than this? The piece is part of a series entitled "A Sorta Fairytale", which features female musicians as fairytale characters or mythological creatures. LOVE THIS!!

Am I tempting anyone else to be as obsessed with this as I am?

Oh, My Jacob Wolfiness!

THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON trailer


Truly amazing! My Kirsten and I were discussing how we love the coloring of this movie...so much more warm and yellow-orangy like the new title...and like Jacob's wolfy coat. =)

And I didn't think I would get to see my Jasper in all of his ferociousness so soon! Me likey! ♥
