Five good things that happened this week.
1. John McClane Day on AMC. Watched Die Hard movies all Saturday afternoon.
2. Watched an old favorite movie The Shoes of the Fisherman. I just love Oskar Werner.
3. Made Slush to beat the heat.
4. Enjoyed my birthday. Family and friends sent birthday wishes. Did some art, watched some movies, got Coconut Shrimp from Outback
5. Awesome lunch of Outback leftovers. No cooking!
How was your week?
Sounds great :-)
ReplyDeleteGood: First BBQ, surprises from Ingo, sun, reading, a good beer at the deep-garage,
You had a good week, too. 😊
DeleteSo glad you had a great birthday. I love Die Hard and all the incarnations. What a great way to round out your week. And no cooking for a couple of days, too!
ReplyDeleteNo cooking for a couple of days is the icing on the cake!
DeleteDid you see the choices for the 14th Doctor? If I can't have David Tennant, I'll have to vote for Benedict Cumberbatch, another nerdy hunk I love to drool over (grin).
ReplyDeleteCumberbatch would be a good choice. From the list I saw Idris Elba or Michael Sheen. I didn't recognize the names of many of the women actors. I thought maybe Sophia Myles who played Mme de Pompadour in "The Girl in the Fireplace" Whoever they choose, I hope they get better writers. Jodie Whitaker is a good actor, but I thought the stories she was given were pretty lackluster and didn't show how good she really is.
DeleteOh, and a better showrunner, too. Chibnall really dropped the ball on this series. Imnsho
DeleteI also saw Idris Elba, and considered him, but I thought he might be a bit too old. Not saying age matters, it's just I don't picture a Dr. with a white beard. That's just how I personally envision a Dr., though. He has the voice and the British vibe, at least.
DeleteIdris Elba is only 49. He's just a kid! 😺
DeleteWhat can I say? I guess looks can be deceiving.
DeleteNo cooking is the BEST! Glad you had a nice b'day! :)
ReplyDeleteNo cooking should happen every day
DeleteWhoops. I thought your BDay was next month....
ReplyDeleteIf it helps, Ma told me her due date was Aug. 4 😺
DeleteI hope you had a fabulous birthday week CJ! You can't go wrong with Die Hard movies, even if they are not all of equal quality. And coconut shrimp sounds just delicious. Especially when you get 2 meals out of them. Have a fabulous weekend and celebrate the rest of your birthday month.
ReplyDeleteThanks, it’s been a great month even if it went by quickly
DeleteWhat a fun birthday week! Movies always improve a day :)
ReplyDeleteMy birthday was a good excuse to be lazy and spend the day (week!) watching movies
DeleteSo pleased you had a great birthday, belated good wishes.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Thank you.
DeleteHappy Belated Birthday!! Many Blessings! I love Die Hard! Big Hugs!
