Moving again.

Not my home address just my blog address.
I am finicky and I get bored easy and I like to change things up.
If you want to follow my blog again here is the new address  Tam-My blog.
My life is lots of fun so you should check it out.

Well, Merry Christmas.

I am feeling disconnected.
Blogging normally helps.  It hasn't been really.
Normally I feel a connection and that's why I do it but for some reason I don't.
Maybe it's hormones.  Maybe it's life.
I don't know.  I'll get back when I get back.

For now, Merry Christmas.

Christmas Movies-Little Women

Last night was Little Women.

Claire Danes is amazing.  

When they give Beth the piano for Christmas and her reaction to it, I just sobbed and sobbed.

I think everyone does a great job acting in this movie.  I think it is Winona's very best and quite possibly only best.  Can you convince me otherwise?

Christmas Movies-Sleepless in Seattle

I realize technically it isn't really a Christmas movie but I always have thought of it as one since it begins during Christmas.
What can I even say about Sleepless?  It is wonderful.  Poor Bill Pullman who seemed to get type cast because of this movie.  While You Were Sleeping redeemed him a little though.

I love Love Actually actually.

Mind you it is rater R for dirty bits.

I watched it twice in a row.

Christmas movie time!

I normally do not do anything Christmasy until Thanksgiving is over but this year is slightly different.
Did you know I do not have TV?
I have a TV I mean I don't have channels, cable, etc.
I only watch movies.
I have learned that my movie collection is lacking.

I have signed up for Netflix and decided since it is pretty much the week of Thanksgiving I can start watching Christmas movies to expand my list of movie choices.  Today I spent some time filling my Netflix que with Christmas movies.  I am looking forward to them.  Did you know I have never seen It's A Wonderful Life all the way through?  Actually I think I have only seen the end and that is all.  I know, tragic.

My favorite Christmas movie is The Muppet Christmas Carol so we have been watching it.  Have you seen it?  In my opinion Michael Caine is the best Scrooge ever.  It also has some great humor since it is the Muppet's and great original Christmas songs to add to your Christmas music playlist.  As a side note I am really excited for the new Muppet movie.  I love the Muppet's.

This is my recommendation for your next Christmas movie.

Last night I watched The Family Stone

I love this movie so much.

I am not a huge SJP fan but I love her in this movie.  She does a great job as well as all the other actors.  

Have you seen this?  That dinner scene!!!!!  I fast forwarded through it last night because it makes me so uncomfortable.  Seriously see this movie if you haven't.  This is how I always wanted my Christmases to be. I may have cried a little last night.

Tonight I have Love Actually waiting for me.  

Please let me know any of your Christmas movie recommendations.  And see my side bar of my upcoming Christmas movies.

Did you know?

Did you know Eva used to be a little baby?

 One of the first pictures of her.

First smile I captured.

With her favorite cousin Lucy.

At 2 years.

In 2 months she is going to be 3!

Not fair.

Yams for the holidays.

I love yams!

A little cinnamon, brown sugar, butter and salt and you have a magnificant holiday treat.

The best thing about yams is they cook really fast and mash so easy.

Halloween Porch Pictures 2011

I love these pictures.  

They are the first of many Halloween Porch Pictures!

I loved squeezing this chunky butterfly!

Eva's triple scoop ice cream cone costume was made by her amazing Auntie Marie.

The night turned out perfect.  It was the last warm night of the year.

Lil' Smokies

Lil' Smokies are a perfect holiday snack.

I only buy them around the holidays.

I think eating them right out of the package tastes more like Christmas than cooking them.

I still like them cooked and I love them cooked in BBQ sauce and eating them off a toothpick as if they are high class hors d'oeuvres.

Our holiday dinner last night was Lil' Smokies and edamame.

Yum.
