Craftiness and Cuteness
I went over to Austin and William's place today to visit with them and my aunt Zita as they prepared for Thanksgiving dinner. I did not stay because I decided to work on my Christmas Contest entry and have a nice quiet veggie Thanksgiving dinner with Joe. We had a corn pudding, the traditional and apparently 50 year old green bean/cream of mushroom soup/french fried onions casserole, pull-apart rolls and cookies that Austin made this morning for dessert. I did make some progress on my Christmas Contest entry but I still have a long way to go before it is a true work of velvet art.
Austin and William's table looked quite elegant with a touch of cuteness. Austin made the napkins and I loved all the textures on and around the table.

movie/DVD reviews
Koi... Mil
Gaya
A Hindi movie that steals liberally from E.T. The
Extra-Terrestrial, Close
Encounters of the Third Kind and Charly.
A mentally retarded young man, his younger
friends and a pretty girl find an alien and try
to hide him from the authorities. It was fairly
dumb.
The
Secret Lives of Dentists
A family man and dentist thinks his wife, also a
dentist, might be having an affair. He decides
not to do anything about it but soon the jealousy
and worry manifests itself in an imaginary
alter-ego type character played by Dennis Leary
(whom I really liked in his short-lived TV show
The Job) who says what the dentist is
thinking but dare not say. It is an interesting
film, funny in parts but mostly kind of
depressing because the family is falling
apart.
