After Movie Talk

So I recently watched this movie and with this month's post only being book related I can see why a movie review in the middle of all this is going to be a little confusing. Part of the reason I'm review this is because it is based off a book. haha see I worked in the book aspect. This was a great movie. And since I have never read the book this is an unbiased opinion of this movie.

I have seen reviews for the movie now that I have seen the movie not once but twice. I do get that this movie is probably leaving out a great amount of detail when it comes to the book but what movie that's based off a book doesn't hold every detail or word written. Does it suck that this is the case? It does but what can you do. Books would be amazing as a tv series depending on the book but if it requires a movie then that's the route to go.

I did plenty of background on all of the actors and actresses in this movie and they are all new faces. Some of them have been in the limelight before but for the most part all new with only a few items under each of their belts in credits. I enjoy when a movie finds new faces. Some of our current actors and actresses would not have really fit the bill for the characters. No I know nothing about the characters written in the book but seeing characters brought to the screen I think these were perfect choices.

The story is a basic trope starting with a love triangle. The story seems to move pretty fast the run time for this movie is only 113 minutes. As I stated this story does move fairly quickly and in some instances when I watched I was a bit confused as to where we were in the story but then caught up pretty quickly. It was a matter of I looked down for a second away from the television.

This movie was wonderfully told and I'm really looking forward to the sequel. The sequel does not have a release date yet. However, I have discovered in a bit of research that the movie has already been filmed and is in post-production. I for one hope to get my hands on the book and read it soon and be able to give a comparison of the movie and the book by the end of next year. We are so close to the end of the year I don't want to put that on my plate at the moment. However, I really hope that if you haven't watched the film you watch it but remember if you've read the book forget everything you know.

Baker's Corner-Herbed Crockpot Bread

Preparing to make this bread. Yes, you read that right! Herbed Crock Pot Bread. I probably thought the same thing that you are thinking right now. You can make bread in the crockpot?!? Where the heck has this been all my life! So I decided that I would try this recipe and I'll let a link to where I found the recipe at the bottom along with the recipe itself. I want to give credit where credit is due. So anyways I was pretty stoked to find a recipe that I could make bread in the crockpot. I want to go ahead and make note that all crockpots are different and not all of them cook at the same temperature. So while the times in this may work for you they did not work for me. The recipe is simple to do and fairly quick in the process if you have all of the ingredients on hand. I thought I had all the ingredients on hand only to discover I did not so a quick trip to the Dollar General was in order. Sadly they did not have the items I needed so I made a quick trip next door to ...

How Our Waitress at Mama Melrose Made Our Night Better

Photo found via Google A few years ago, 2016 to be exact, we took a trip to Disney World just the four of us. Usually, we have my parents with us when we go because the extra eyes on my two boys are always helpful because the little one still likes to bolt occasionally. However, this particular trip my parents were unable to travel down at the same time with us and my husband and I were really wanting to take the kids still. So we decided what the heck we'll take them by ourselves. They are our kids after all. So we packed up the car the night before leaving. Doodlebug had to go to school the next morning. It was his last day of school for the year for him at least. He had an awards ceremony that we were going to be in attendance too. He was so excited to be getting his little award for A-B honor roll. Anyways, let's fast-forward a bit into our trip. We were in Hollywood Studios we were sitting down to the Indiana Jones show with plenty of time to still spare to get to ou...
