First political card I’ve made and most likely my last. Our Mayor has done a lot of stuff to rub me the wrong way though and that deserved a card. Available in the Rhymes with Twee Etsy shop as a single card<\/a> of as a set of 5<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This week: Hopleaf with Cindy Paper Parasol Press<\/a> and a group of her lovely friends. Takito Tuesday with Stacy & Jen L. Z’s work Holiday Party. Leah & Tim’s Party. Lunch Buffet @ Tava. My Trunk Show @ Local Goods. Shopping for Letters to Santa gifts. <\/p>\n

On Sunday night, I made grapefruit sandwich cookies filled with grapefruit (& mal\u00c3\u00b6rt) buttercream<\/a> frosting for Kimmi’s cookie exchange. They took FOREVER to make, but these were some of the best cookies I have ever made – they are freakin’ tasty. I followed this recipe exactly except for the grapefruit juice in the frosting, I subbed in half mal\u00c3\u00b6rt and the bake time was only 9 minutes somehow? I burnt the first batch. <\/p>\n

Films watched 49th week of the year:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Foodfight!<\/a>
\nThe Watch
\nFrom One Second to the Next *
\nThe Kite (2003) [ Lebanon ]<\/p>\n

* documentary
\n** foreign language<\/p>\n

At Show of Hands, I was talking to a customer about The Room and they told me and Z about a “film” called “Food Fight!” and they assured us it was a similar so bad it’s good movie. Well, they are liars! Z and I are both convinced that this was the worst thing we have ever watched. So much is wrong with it! Upskirt after upskirt of weird sexy lady cat. Worst plot ever. I could not even deal with it! No redeeming qualities. DO NOT WATCH. The rest of the films this week ranged from OK to good. I have not read the history as to why Werner chose texting as a documentary subject for From One Second to the Next<\/a>, but he did a good job. This film should be shown to every single person who gets behind a wheel. My foreign film new year’s resolution has done a really good job educating me about world affairs that I admit I did not know much about. Watching these films has made me do a lot more reading about international conflict. The Kite<\/a> made me read more as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
