The weekend

Saturday we went to A Serious Man and man, it was seriously great. Sorry, I had to. I enjoyed it so thoroughly. The Cohen brothers are real filmmakers - you really get a full, rich movie-going experience when you go to a Cohen brothers film. To quote my hubby's blog, "wins on all accounts. the beauty that is Roger Deakins camerawork, the impeccable casting, and the fluidity & sparsity of their dialogue…unmatched."


We were also victorious this weekend in finding our favorite cereal, available only at Halloween time, Count Chocula. Last year we searched stores all over Los Angeles, and never found the Count; I ended up ordering it on Amazon. But this year Target in Pasadena granted us our cereal. We don't actually eat sugary cereal in our daily lives, but once a year this treat is irresistable. We picked up some Count Chocula as well as Frankenberry and Boo Berry, for good measure. Yum.


And let me say that I loved Sunday afternoon watching Stephen Fry in America with Whitby. I really love this show. Stephen Fry is so interesting and pleasant and just a joy to watch and I'm so happy Whit enjoys it with me.



I am loving this cooler weather. It's going to be overcast and rainy the next three days and I couldn't be happier. Although I do just want to be at home curled up with a blanket and some of the delectable banana bread I made yesterday...oh well, back to work.
