Sounds like MR BK had a another fun party yesterday!

TOD:

Gravity
Lincoln (didn't see it until 2013)

Still looking forward to SAVING MR BANKS, WOLF OF WALL STREET, and a couple of others....although they didn't exactly get rave reviews here on HHW.....

Yesterday was also my mother's 82nd birthday, but she didn't want anyone to know.

DR JANE - I think girlfiend is probably correct....although the husband who invited her to live there is not much better....  Everyone is back home this morning, so I don't know what to expect.

I think I shall greatly enjoy SAVING MR. BANKS. But it will likely be on pay-per-view or Blu-Ray, rather than in a theater. I just have no patience for rude audiences in public anymore. Alas.    :P

The floors are mopped and I'm heading back to the laundromat. I need a nap.

I totally hear you, but I must be the luckiest movie-going person in Western Connecticut.  Our theater was two-thirds full with a silent but totally appreciate audience who let forth with a spontaneous outburst of applause at the end. 

And I have been this same lucky person at every vintage film showing (The Birds, Lawrence of Arabia, Cleopatra -- even Raiders of the Lost Ark and Jurassic Park) in the last couple of years, and (of course) at every MET Live-in-HD showing.

TOD:

I have not been to a movie theater in 2013, so I have not seen many of the new movies.  I wait for them to be released onto DVD.

However, one film that I really liked is SIDE EFFECTS

There are several twists in that one that surprised me, and that is not an easy thing to do.

I also saw and liked MUD and BEFORE MIDNIGHT.

Thursday morning greetings!  Post-Christmas weariness, here...

Richard and I have had our morning-after-a-turkey-dinner breakfast - turkey & bacon sandwiches on whole wheat toast.  After we get cleaned up, we'll pick up a prescription for Mom and deliver it, along with her Christmas presents and some dinner leftovers.

BK, this morning was my first opportunity to watch the Richard Sherman videos from Tuesday evening.  They are wonderful and "Feed the Birds" brought tears to my eyes.  Thank you for sharing them!

You and Richard should time your trip to your ma's so you can catch a showing of "Saving Mr Banks."

My sister and brother-in-law served turkey and ham yesterday.  The ham was one of the best I have ever tasted.  Although I eat ham, it has never been a favorite. But this ham was wonderful.  They bought it at Costco.  The hams were selling so fast that the butchers just rolled them out in the box, and the people were grabbing up right out of the box.

For startes, we had Tom's Famous Shrimp Dip, my niece's deviled eggs, and a shrimp ring. For dinner was ham, turkey, my niece's homemade macaroni and cheese, my sister's out of this world potato salad, and rolls.  Dessert was some kind of fruit bars that my sister's sister-in-law made.  Everything was wonderful.

I love ham! My mother hated fowl, so for Christmas and thanksgiving we always had a huge ham and ginormous turkey. During the school holiday break, every lunch was a wonderful leftover sandwich of ham or turkey with swiss and mustard.

DR Ben - we don't live right ON Summit, but a block off. The homes are still pretty grand!     :)

I've always loved the old homes in St Paul.
