I went to my mother's in Montreal for four days and three nights.

We had lot's of my favourite foods like spaghetti and meat sauce (The Hubby is allergic to tomato sauce), peanut butter cookies, and brownies.

I gave Chicks and Balances by Esther Friesner and Josh Helfers to my brother for his belated 50th birthday present and I gave A History of ( Read more... )

RIPD - it was OK but not spectacular, just an average buddy movie with slight apocalyptic overtones.

GARDEN OF WORDS - Absolutely gorgeous. Never seen rainy days done so well in an animated movie.

THE LESSON OF THE EVIL - If you are high school teacher, you might want to skip this one. The write up on the website does not quite do it just other than the comment about how you will never hear the song “Mack the Knife” the same way ever again.

THE GRAND HEIST - Think OCEAN'S 11 but in 18th century Korea, where the most precious commodity is not ( Read more... )

CONFESSION OF MURDER - Great thrill ride. Some rather interesting twist and turns as a homicide cop tries to prove that a self-confessed murdered now ( Read more... )
