Working the weekend. I have Monday off and hope to further along in preparing my husband's book for publishing. Before we're ready for that, though, SG: Just a Girl Without Words has graciously agreed to check it for punctuation, which isn't my forte.

Then, I hope to get some flowers into the ground so they can quit wilting.

I'm working this weekend but have the actual holiday off. I might go up to the lake with the boys and BBQ. (Sorry Hooves) Cooking sounds like fun. Enjoy. I can't catch a typo to save my life. It's always nice to have fresh eyes on a project.

My favorite gifts are the gift of their time,love, and attention, but some other things can make me go "Aww..." when they have thought of me in a special way.

I purposely avoided watching it the first time. Mixed emotions about seeing it now. I'm not quite old enough to speak about it first hand though...

I did see it again recently and it was breathtaking. It really captured the ambience of the time period. What did the French moviegoers think of the movie? Did they like it?
Like  •  May 7, 2012 at 10:04am EDT
Yes, Titanic broke box office records in France like it did here in the States. I remember waiting in line a long time to buy tickets. I've seen many American films lose a lot of their essence when dubbed into French (especially comedies -- humor does not always translate well). But Titanic was as thrilling and emotional in French as it was in VO (vérsion originale) *Smile*

It's hard to believe that Oreos have been around that long.

I can't eat Oreos because I'm allergic to wheat. Before I found out about my allergies, I used to eat the vanilla cookie oreos (never liked the regular ones because I've never liked chocolate).

My favorite is double stuff too but I love the mint cookies when they do them. Dreaming yes - OMGosh, you can't more than one!! I can't believe it's been 100 years either. RIP Dad - I'm so sorry to hear of your loss, and I'm sorry no more Oreos but you have to watch out for those allergies! Take care

Coffee on a cold morning, Hot tea with lemon and honey when you're not feeling well, or at night before bed. Wink
