Cooking Adventures #1

From time to time I love to experiment in the kitchen, though I am not as crazy talented as my friend Dionne, I still love to have fun with whatever I'm making :)

I recently made some chicken avocado enchilada's and a fabulous lemon icebox pie -- enjoy :)

Movie Time

Every once in a while I like to go see a movie in the theaters; at least once a season a movie at the drive-in.


I am a fan of a lot of different types of movies but my all time favorite are romantic comedies. I love to laugh and I love a good love story :)  


Recently I went to see Larry Crowne, a beautiful movie about change and embracing life today. I loved the concept from the moment I saw the previews and I loved the movie! With out giving any spoilers the base story line of the movie is that Larry, played by Tom Hanks, looses his job and was downsized because he had no potential to move up in the company due to a lack of being college educated. Being a college student this hit home with me. 


 

This movie appeals to the common person, this very issue, of a lack of education has been a downfall for many Americans today but the movie was beautifully done in that he went back to school and embraced life with out complaining! Everything about the movie from the character's lives that intermix with his to the way the movie ends is beautiful ~
