12 Days of Christmas Movies: Introduction

Dear Carrie,

Let's get this movie marathon party started!

You know the rules:  I will watch and review/recap/discuss 12 Christmas movies in 12 days.  I realize the actual, original rules we previously discussed required me to watch 12 Hallmark Channel Christmas movies in 12 days?  But I don't know if that's really going to work for me.  For example, I tried to start watching a recorded movie last night, but due to circumstances beyond my control (the Patriots were on TV) the TV was unavailable to me and I had to watch something on my iPad, which pretty much leaves me with Netflix.  Also, the Hallmark Christmas movies that look "good" don't come on until closer to Christmas, and I think I should get this ball rolling now.  So here's what I propose:

1.  12 movies in 12 days
2.  I will stick to recent TV movies, i.e. no Christmas Vacation or Elf.  Only recent, made-for-TV movies, and I will aim for a high cheese factor.  I'll try to make them Hallmark movies, but movies may also include those found on Lifetime, Netflix or other channels, depending on personal convenience.  
3. No guarantee of word count on these reviews.

How does that sound?  Let me know if you have any questions or requests.  First review will be up tomorrow!  Ho ho ho!

P.S.  Apparently I haven't looked at this blog in 8 years!  Yikes.  I'm embarrassed.  Let me know if you would prefer I just e-mail you these recaps.  It might be less painful for all (two) of us.

I have been drooling over this this pretty food blog for the past few days, so when presented with my own especially delightful breakfast this weekend, I felt compelled to take a picture of it: My photo is not that great, but the meal was. Cristina's eggs: Crunchy toast with a bit of olive oil, topped with charred tomatoes, spinach, and poached eggs, and then finished with sprinkles of balsamic and parmesan. Now go check out Simply Breakfast ! It makes me wish I had leisurely mornings.

Mission 6: Take a Multivitamin

Take a multivitamin every day. I do this already. Plus I take all kind of other supplements depending on what strikes my fancy on any given week. I have high blood pressure so I'm taking some Omega business and some COQ10 business... and I can't even remember why I'm taking bee pollen right now. Energy? Anyway, I take plenty of vitamins, including the regular multivitamin. Done! Next mission: "Keep the Outside Out." This involves removing our shoes at the door and creating "a transition space to minimize unwanted outdoor pollutants in your home." I like the thought of this, actually - spring in this snowy town is a mess. There is mud and sand and road salt everywhere, the dog hair is everywhere, dust and leaves are flying around... I would love if it would be possible to keep some of that to a minimum. Will try to implement with my family and will report back! Stay tuned!
