Weekend Recap - Movies and Dinner

Nothing major this weekend, but still enjoyed it just the same. Friday night, Marc and I caught a showing of the indie French film called A Very Long Engagement, and we both loved it. It was just the right quirky mix of humor, action and drama. It seems that any movie with Audrey Tatou turns out to be a winner. She knows how to pick, that Audrey! :P And of course she knows how to act.

Then, the next day, after a quick barefoot run at the beach, we caught Ocean's Twelve, which turned out to be a disappointment. Marc and I gave it a rating of "Two restless bodies!" We definitely could have seen a better one than that. But one-for-two is not so bad. We've had better movie days though.

Sunday, I hauled ass to mass even though I was dog-tired, and then rushed back to make three flans for Allan's Christmas dinner. I had promised him that I would be there early to help out so I had to make everything early. On the way there, I was assigned to pick up some paper plates and plastic utensils, and I made a discovery: Christmas is not a good time to shop for paper plates and plastic utensils. I had to go to three stores before I was able to find what I needed! Yikes!

So anyway, Christmas is just around the corner now. I still have gifts to buy and wrap. Oh, and my little cousin April is coming for a visit again! Whoopee!
