Movie Reviews and cinnamon buns

















Hi all....First things first...I DID manage to find a local Borders that had my dream bread book, Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day...and it is incredible. Anyway, using the model that this is all built on, no knead, refridgerated dough.... tried my first sticky rolls...and they were great....honestly I think this is fool proof. Awesome, and thanks Ron and Shorty for the part you played (the gift receipt! yea!!!!).

And to help reduce some local stress, as I was showing up yesterday from working until 3:30 (it was a Saturday), we ran off to a 4:20 movie, and stayed for another....then zipped to an 11:05 movie today. Here's our thoughts on them

The Bucket - (Morgan Freeman, Jack Nicholson) - Lynne loved every minute - because she loves both of these guys. I got lots of chuckles out of it, and was moved during the last 10 minutes -but basically it was miserably done, they were barely moving their little finger s re: 'acting', and it even seemed poorly edited!

National Treasure, etc. - totally a waste of time, actually boring. So how many times can you watch a rock wall close on a group,, then water pour in? Nicholas Cage is a lost cause. And what's with America? all those dumbies flocking to see it? The dumbing down of America.

The Savages - terrific. Philip Seymour Hoffman is becoming my favorite actor. See it.

OK all... what is everybody up to? Wish we could see some of these movies together... How about having a vacation together that's kinda a film festival? might be fun@!!!!
