dinner & a movie

i woke up this morning with every good intention. the goal:have a wonderful day.

after a night of baking cookies and studying for my bible study lesson i was already pretty groggy, but i pressed on.

i could write about my exhausting day . . . but i'd rather write about my peaceful Tuesday night.

Deciding what type of sushi roll to devour can sometimes prove to be tricky. I had already decided last week, when i originally made my date to meet up with a good friend for sushi and a movie that i was going to partake of a Sweet Heart Roll. YUM!! now the dilemma was deciding if i wanted gyoza or shumai and what roll would compliment my Sweet Roll on my bamboo platter. i ended up enjoying a Sweet Heart Roll, a Crunchy Roll and Shumai. i can taste it now . . .

After dinner we went to see "The Secret Life of Bees"
Fantastic film. i laughed . . . i cried . . . i talked to the screen. Teen Dakota was amazing. Jennifer Hudson did an incredible job in her second film, if her Oscar wasn't proof enough that she is going to be around for a while, this movie definitely did. I was so proud of Alicia Keys and her diesel portrayal of June Boatwright. I want to know how they made her bald though. It really looked like they cut her hair. Finally Queen. Oh Queen. She was great.

So i give the Secret Life of Bees a FIVE out of 5 buckets-o-popcorn.
