A New Piece of News........

Hello Dear World....

First things first how are you ? I have a question for you do you want to know what it is......are you on the edge of your seat ? Okay, okay, okay here it is....What do Amber Tamblyn, America Ferrera, Blake Lively and Alexis Bledel have in common ? Well the movie "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" which is the greatest movie since "The Breakfast Club". You can check it out at -----------------> www.sisterhoodofthetravelingpants.com/ . The movie was about four lifelong friends who are separated for the first time. On a shopping trip, the young women find a pair of thrift-shop jeans that fits each of them perfectly and they decide to use these pants as a way of keeping in touch over the months ahead, each one wearing the jeans for a week to see what luck they bring her before sending them on to the next. Amber Tamblyn plays Tibby, America Ferrera plays Carmen, Blake Lively plays Bridget and Alexis Bledel plays Lena.

My favorite part of the movie was Alexis Bledel who plays Lena. Her character has to go away for a while to Greece to spend with her grandparents. From seeing the movie Greece looks like a very beautiful place. The one thing I wish would have to be that I could fold myself in half in an envelope and forward myself to Greece. Of course if this movie doesn't win an award then I really will know that something is definitely wrong with Hollywood. The other part I liked was Amber Tamblyn who played a great part as Tibby. Playing the character Tibby part of Amber's hair had to be colored blue. I am seriously thinking of dying some of my hair blue it looked really nice and I think that would be shocking to see half of my hair colored like Amber did for the movie.

By the way do you have a favorite pair of blue jeans ? Drop by and tell me about them I would like to hear any interesting stories you might have about them.......

What do you think dear world ?????? Have you seen this movie ? If you haven't go out and rent it as soon as possible. Anyway......I'll talk to you later.

Good night........

Going To The Grocery Store.........

Good Evening Dear World.....

How are you ? I wanted to share something with you. I was inspired by one of my other favorite journals titled "View From A Farm House Window" and I will tell you why. Hint...Hint...Hint...Going to the grocery store.

Check out this journal at -------------> http://journals.aol.com/thisismary/ViewFromAFarmHouseWindow/ . You might think that going to the grocery store isn't all that noteworthy but I just wanted to share this with you.....Here in Riverdale, Ga. which is my neck of the woods is a grocery store called "Little Giant Farmers Market" You can find it at ----------> WWW.LITTLEGIANTFARMERSMARKET.COM/ . In the store they have items like tender cactus. I repeat tender cactus in a jar in the grocery store. Also in the store is dried seaweed. I can't imagine eating any kind of dried seaweed. Its weird to go the "Little Giant Farmers Market" because the items in the store are a little strange to me. The grocery store I usually shop at is Kroger which is completely different from the "Little Giant Farmers Market". I'm just saying that going to a grocery store is and can oftentimes be a weird experience.

Do you like going to the grocery store ? Have you seen foods you find weird or strange like I have ? Well that's all for now........

Good night and sweet dreams.........

Enter At Your Own Risk..........

Hello Dear World......

How are you ? Before I say anything let me warn you some of what I say might gross you out.......Read carefully.......

Earlier today my father bought pigs tails at the grocery store and I haven't told you the........Oh my goodness part yet. Here it is......A few hours ago my mom cooked a pot of the pigs tails. When my dad bought the pigs tails home I thought.........somewhere there's a farm with pigs walking around without their tails.......A few hours later my mom put them in a pot and cooked them.......The smell of these pigs tails was........like.........the smell of dirty socks that weren't washed in like a week or two........gross I know. I know what your thinking......and no I didn't eat any of them. My mom put the juice from these pigs tails in a bowl. She said the juice will become......brace yourselves..........The juice will become what she called.........Hogs head cheese........you heard me.......Hogs head cheese. I really won't eat anything called..........Hogs head cheese that would be too horrid for me. My mom is a bit strange with some of the things she eats let me tell you. Seeing the pigs tails cooked was.........I won't even describe the image.........Let's just say its hard for me to even think about.......Are you grossed out yet ??????? Let me apologize if you are..........I'm sorry

On a lighter note my dad bought home some ice cream.......it was the Mayfield ice cream brand check it out at -----------> www.mayfielddairy.com . The ice cream was called........Brown Cow which is a various mixture of vanilla and chocolate with chunks of fudge added. I also added a scoop of hot fudge to the ice cream instead of melting it this time. Have you had Mayfield's ice cream ? I thought it was pretty good. I can say you will like it.

On a totally different note my favorite movie "Sleepless In Seattle" was on. I love the movie with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. Tom Hanks makes great movies except the movie "Terminal" that movie he was in was..........awful........to say the least. His other movies are wonderful. My other favorite movie of theirs is "You've Got Mail". I love the movies they make together. I am a fan of movies like that. Iam a bit of a fan when it comes to certain television shows and movies.

Right about now I can imagine that I have tired you out to the point that you are ready to be through with me for the moment so let me end by saying thanks for listening....We'll talk again soon

Good night for now.........Sleep well dear world and take care

Here I Am.......

Hello Dear World.......

How are you dear world ? I am still thinking about Kara and hoping that she gets better soon.

On a different note recently I went to a little restaurant here in Georgia called "BUTCH'S" Family Restaurant which is owned by a couple named Gail and Bill Glancy. I have to say that I was the youngest person in the restaurant. Everyone else was between the age of 70 to 100 years of age. The food served there was things like cabbage, green beans and okra which is not really the food I like. I went with two of my coworkers and another woman that used to work at my job. I doubt that I will visit the place again anytime soon.

On another note I visited a journal titled "The Hadonfield Myers Experience" which is a pretty interesting journal in my opinion. You can check it out at ------------> http://journals.aol.com/hadonfield78/TheHadonfieldMyersExperience/  In his journal he wrote 5 weird things about himself. I thought I would share 5 weird things about myself as well.........

1. When I scoop ice cream out of the carton I put it into a bowl, stick it in the microwave and melt it until its drinkable.....

2. My favorite show on t.v. is "West Wing" when the reruns come on I never miss them. I make a point to see them like I have never seen the show before.......

3. I buy Hallmark cards just because they're cute.......

4. When I go to the store I shop in the men's department and not the women's department.......The men's department has better clothes than the women's department.......

5. I love the show "Bones" on fox which comes on television......Check out www.david-boreanaz.com/

...........What else would you like to know about me dear world ? Ask me anything..........

Well I will talk to you soon..........good bye for now

My New Year's and a bit of Hail..........

Hello Dear World.......

First let me wish you all a "Happy New Year". Me and my family stayed at a hotel called the "Atlanta Airport Hilton"for New Year's Eve you can find it at www.atlanta.hilton.com . As a little note the Hilton is located on 1031 Virginia Ave. One of the great nearby attractions is "Underground Atlanta" check it out at -------------> www.underground-atlanta.com/ . We had gotten two rooms there. My folks stayed in 1 room and my sister and I in the other. We also brought some food with us including dessert and then we watched from our windows a wonderful show of fireworks. We also watched the peach drop on the television and then we watched the ball drop in Times Square in New York on television as well. After that we ate and welcomed in the New Year with lots of celebration in our rooms. We stayed overnight which was fun. The next day we went out to eat, we got home and a few hours later we had a little meal later that same day. It was a wonderful time all around. I wanted you all to know that I certainly thought of you all dear world hoping you all had a good new year's as I did.

As a note I have a few instructions to staying at a hotel :

1. Get as many of those little bottles of shampoos as you can just for a little souveneir.

2. Call and ask for extra towels you will thank me for this.

3. Go the machine and fill the bucket in your room with ice several times during the night.

4. Bring 1 pillow from home for a little comfort of home.

5. Get a room with a king size bed.

6. Don't leave home without toothpaste, your toothbrush, a comb, a brush, a robe and slippers.

7. Visit the gift shop at least once.

8. Bring an overnight bag just for added supplies.

9. Request extra toiletries !!!!!1

10. Have fun.

On a different note today I went out with my mother and my older niece. We went out to do a litle bit of shopping. Let me tell you that it was quite a stormy day here in Atlanta. We didn't just get rain it was a day of rain and hail. I am not talking ordinary hail here I'm talking dime sized hail or what you might call half melted round pieces of really frozen ice. It came down rather hard and on the radio there was talk of a tornado warning in Metro Atlanta. By the time we hit our neighborhood all the rain and hail had completely stopped. Then we took a ride down to Blockbuster for more movies. The movies we rented were "The Longest Yard" with Adam Sandler and the other was called "The Island". When we got home we watched "The Longest Yard" which let me tell you was beyond funny........it was a "laughing so hard you cried" kind of movie. My family and I loved it all the way to the end. It was a little late so we didn't see "The Island" I will let you know how it was later. All in all it was quite a day..........

Let me once again wish you all a "Happy New Year"!!!!!!!!!!

Before I say good night I would like you to check out www.cappers.com/ its well worth a visit......

For now good night and sweet dreams..........
