July 11, 2011

Hello Everyone!  It has been a long time since I have updated, but I largely blame that on the server that the blog is on because there has been a lot of construction and we have encountered gliches for awhile.  But Iiiiiiiiiiimmm baaaaaaaacckkk (for all you Poltergeist fans).

The Food Network:  I have been watching a lot of the food network this summer.  Mostly because there is nothing else much on except for a smattering of Spongebob and the occasional FOX movie or reruns of CSI, NCIS, or Criminal Minds.  I am quite captivated with it.  I still can't stand Anthony Bourdain!!! However, Guy is hilarious and a realistic cook/ host on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.  Learning a lot of recipes and now I am addicted to the show Chopped about competing for the best dishes...its so intense!  You mock me but it quickly gets addicting.

Mr. Jim's Pizza:  My sister works at Mr. Jim's Pizza near our house and tonight she surprised us by having my favorite pizza delivered to our front door.  It was delightful!  It was piping hot and the half sausage-half pepperoni wheel of wonderfulness was eaten with a smile on my face.

Music Video:  This blog's video is Nick Petra's, "One Man Disney Song" .  This video is for any Disney fan and his talents are extraordinary.

Harry Potter:  This week is it folks!  The opening of Deathly Hallows Part 2 in theathres smackered all over the United States will be people of all ages anxiously confronting the heat, long lines, and the early morning hours just to see their favourite characters defeat the Dark Lord.  This movie has been a decade in the making and this film is for everyone, like myself, who saw magic on the big screen or through words on a page were able to delve themselves into the imagination of another world and found joy, love, mystery, drama, inspiration, laughter, sadness, and above all an adventure to make their own.  J.K. Rowling summed it up pretty good when she said, "Whether you come back by page or by the big screen, Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home.”--London premiere.  I couldn't have said it better, Jo. Thank you for filling our lives full of the wonderful world of Harry Potter.



Best Friends:  My best friend, Niccole, is coming from Arizona this week to see the Potter premiere with me. I am completely stoked!  It is a miracle if we get to see each other and I am really going to cherish the couple of days she gets to spend with me.  We have been best friends for 14 years, and I know that all of you who have that special friendship with someone know what these moments mean to you

You've Got Mail:  Mum and I watched that movie tonight--one of our favourites!  It really is one of the best well made romantic comedy from the 90's.  The essence of the movie is adorable.  Ever been like Meg Ryan wishing the dial-up would hurry so you could hear just three little words?  Or been like Tom Hanks and spend great amounts of time agonizing over every word for the perfect response?  It happens to everyone. I love getting personalized emails :-)

Embarassing Moments:  I had my earphones on today while I was unloading the dishwasher and belting out to the best of my ability "Bad Romance" from the collection Lady Gaga.  After the song was over, I heard laughing and turned around to see my dad dying of laughter.  Definitely embarassing!

Loving the Song"Don't Forget to Remember Me." by Carrie Underwood.  Just discovered it on youtube and it reminded me of my mum when she sent me off to college.  Very touching!  It's always nice to listen to a song that magnifies the special relationship between parents and their children.  Seems like a lot of times these days it gets brushed aside or is concerned with negative situations.  I love my parents!

Happy Quote:  "I'm a pacificst so I don't believe in war. But when the revolution comes I will destroy you all!"--Phoebe from Friends  :-)

At This Moment:  I am about to drop from exhaustion and get a little shut eye but wanted to upload this first for all my faithful readers.

Until next time! Think happy my friends. Win Win!!!  Love, Kate J  :-)
