On movies and cravings

Having less expectations over a movie has once again proved to be more enjoyable and extremely satisfying in the end. I never thought that Jimmy Fallon could pull it off until this. I've seen him from Saturday Night Live, but haven't seen him on a full length movie. I was so used to watching him doing spoofs of someone popular and controversial. He was so funny imitating Enrique Iglesias, when he still has the mole. Anyway, again I was surprised on how this movie entertained me in the most unexpected way because of its honest portrayal of the reality of relatioship. I never wanted it sugar coated and overrated. It was simple yet witty and romantic. The humor was funny and subtle. Jimmy was so adorable and so is Drew Barrymore. It's a story of two people in their 30's trying to make their relationship work out inspite of their different careers and personality quirks. One is corporate and highly paid, and the other is low profile but well respected. Here's the catch. Ben(Jimmy Fallon) seems to be the most pefect guy for Lindsey (Drew Barrymore) but he is the biggest Redsox Fan. His passion for the game is what Lindsey has to deal with. I highly, highly recommend this movie.

It's that time of the month again where in all hell breaks lose. Ok, well it's not hell all of the time, just some of it. Sometimes I think it's all in the mind. Women can get manipulative and blame it all in that one particular time of the month. But I can attest to the craziness of it all. One thing that I somewhat love and hate are the cravings. I don't think it's psychological as much as it is hormonal. I really believe and I know facts can prove that a women's monthly cycle can do all sorts of things. I personally am amazed on the variety of cravings I get. I thought that pregnant women could only experience crazy cravings but a woman who is on the verge of getting her monthly period is just as the same, only a bit saner. Today my cravings are Lay's salt & vinegar potato chips and chocolate chip cookies. I usually get a sour and sweet combo. I just love the taste of two extremes. It drives me nuts coz I couldn't seem to find this specific kind of potato chips. I think I should blog about my cravings every month just to see how crazy these cravings can get.

I'm munching on a an old favorite that goes way back to my childhood, it's Nabisco's chocolate covered marshmallow biscuits. I've been wanting to eat it since I've seen it in the asian store but I only get to buy it today. I'm down to 2 marshmallows..hehe
