Academy Awards
March 28, 2022 - The 94th annual Academy Awards were this past Sunday, March 27. Since I was a little girl, I have curled up, had popcorn, and watched the stars walk the red carpet in their glittering ensembles. I cry with the “In Memoriam,” I enjoy the live performances, and I watch the speeches enrapt until they are cut off by the music.
