The Help
I loved the book. Totally loved it. Read it last year and promptly gave it to Emil to read. He enjoyed it as well. I finally gave in and saw "The Help" alone today while Emil saw "Harry Potter 18." The movie surprised me....from the trailer, it looked like a comedy, so I was a little apprehensive to see the movie since I knew it was a serious book. Emma Stone did a fantastic job, and the movie didn't stray too much from the novel. Did you know the author was turned down 60 times from publishers???? Seriously!
Broke down today and bought a bike computer. I am not a biker! And, buying a little gadget that tells me how far I've biked still doesn't make me a biker. But, I've been biking 10-14 miles (estimates) every day, so it was time to start tracking and keeping a ride log. Still not a biker....
It's hot here...90+ degrees, so I am going to lay on the couch and read my book. Also, I'm trying three new recipes this week, so I'll keep you posted on any winners.
