I remember going to see Men in Black at the cinema. Or at least I remember my friend being obsessed with the bloody cow at the beginning. She’s a bit of a weirdo. But I do remember enjoying the film. I would have been 9 so the silliness will have appealed. And we all know that the 90s was peak Will Smith time, right? Thanks to a bunch of underwhelming sequels, the first Men in Black film has become something of a classic. People have started to view it through rose-tinted glasses. In my review of the latest installment of the franchise, Men in Black: International, even I did it. So, after all these years, does Men in Black really stand up?

Directed By: Jon Watts

Your DAILY MESSAGE from Angels

GO for the POWER of the GENTLE TOUCH!

We love you

Thank you, Angels!!!

This was one of “those” days. But, my partner stepped in and took care of dinner. She is becoming a cook. She is a great baker but was always afraid of cooking. She had to have a recipe that must be followed to the letter. Finally, she is becoming more confident in her cooking abilities. She said as she made this she kept thinking, “Okay, how would she do this.”

She found a recipe (here is the original recipe from The Country Cook – click for link to original recipe) and we didn’t have all the ingredients so she worked around them. Know what? She did great!  That…

So, this is how we spent our Thanksgiving. My daughter danced in the Mid-America Oireachtas (eer-uh kh-tus) in Louisville, Kentucky. We had a great trip and a fun weekend but we are all worn out. Two of the four have colds now and thankfully since we got home last night about 6 pm today was a snow day! Woo hoo! We all needed a day to recover and our prayers were answered.  Thought this was not her year to recall she is already looking forward to January and feising her new steps. I am so incredibly proud of how she was disappointed at first (she placed 9th last year) but she picked herself up and started planning how she was going to change things going forward.

Below is her ceili (Irish folk dancing group) team. They did the best they ever had even though they did not recall…
