Sara Recommends

These are things that I recommend. Hopefully you will find them enjoyable as well, and if not, well, at least you tried it once, eh?

Dark and Stormys
Ginger beer and Goslings Dark Rum with a hint of lime juice. Best made with Stewart's Ginger beer but any kind will do. It's lovely to drink--a bit of spice humming on your tongue and very refreshing. Best in summer, but fine for any time of year. Like tonight. Cheers!

Fables
Comic created by Bill Willingham. Looking for a comic with stronger female roles, where they are not always some Amazon or twig with ridiculous ta-tas? (and yes, the ta-tas do have their place.) Take your favorite story book characters and place them in New York City. Snow White is the deputy mayor of the Fables. Its a very interesting concept that makes you think about the stories you heard as a wee pup, and how much more complex they really are. Beautiful artwork. I am in love with Rose Red. Nod to Tony & Torrey on this one.

Not leaving your liquid laundry soap in the car
It freezes. Who knew?

Lord of the Rings: Return of the King -- Extended Edition
PJ is my hero. I emmersed myself again into Middle Earth. I had not seen it since last year at the theatre and did so on purpose. I wanted to be blown away again. I am in awe of the passion, imagination and love that went into the films from all parts. The cast is gushing about the experience and I feel that in every second of film. Everytime I watch it, I find a new character I love more and more. This time around: Pippin. The song Billy Boyd wrote breaks my heart.
