Death at a Funeral

Death at a Funeral,

This is comedy was surprising well done. From the beginning of the movie to the end it was a laugher with a great mix of non-A list stars. The movie is an "english" movie and is being remade for the US in 2010 or 2011. I don't know why it is being re-made, the version is very funny. Maybe they will use a more mainstream cast. This movie is certainly worthy of checking out.

9.1/10.0 Stars

Basement Paint Done







The Basement is done with painting. It took 6 gallons of paint, but it was well worth it. No more banana yellow for us. As you can tell the dogs always enjoy the basement.

Movie Review: Whatever Works


Whatever Works, written, directed by Woody Allen. I had big hopes for this, as one of my favorite series Curb Your Enthusiasm star: Larry David would be the lead. Overall it was a typical left comedy that ripped on the christian right continually. I can't recall actually watching a previous Woody Allen film, nor after watching this would have much interest in watching any of his previous work. I can handle making cracks at both sides of the political prism but a one sided affair is quite annoying. And the whole 'talking to the camera bit' like The Office was fairly lame too.

Rating: 5.4/10.0

Breakfast Souffle

Since Panera Bread has started to sell souffles for breakfast, we have become fans. They are a light fluffy crust with egg and random vegetables or breakfast meats inside.
This morning attempted to make our own.
What we used were Pillsbury Croissants, Egg Whites, Extra Sharp Cheese, Artichoke Hearts, A half tomato, and 2 large mushrooms.
First we cooked the croissants in the oven for 12 minutes:
Then cooked the egg mixture on the stove top and seasoned.
Then added the egg mixture to the croissants with cheese and back into the oven for 6 more minutes.
Then bingo-bamo, breakfast without having to leave the house! Booyah!

Total Cost:

Pillsbury: 2.50

Artichokes 1/4 of a can: .50

Tomato: .50

2 Mushrooms: .25

EggWhite: 1.25

Cheese: .50

Total Cost: 5.50

Total Cost by going out to Restaurant: 3.50 per X 3, 10.50 + Tax= 11.50

Total Savings: 6 bucks!
