DON'T TELL MAMINKA


The face made when you hear "Mommy guess what...we ate french fries!" after negotiating a deal with a 3 year old to keep your actions a secret.

LOVE IN DER CLUB


I saw Mamma Mia last week in the theater (PS good show) and it got me thinking words I don't say very often. L-O-V-E. That's right, I reckon I'm not sure what love really is, but here are a few of my favorite lines from movies and whatnot that explain it:

*Honestly, if you're not willing to sound stupid you don't deserve to be in love. (A Lot Like Love)

*All you need is love (The Beatles)

*Marge, I'm going to miss you so much. And it's not just the sex. It's also the food preparation. (Homer Simpson)

*[holding Holly by the shoulders] What do you want? I know what I want, cause I'm holding it in my hands. You. (PS I Love You)

*Robbie: Hey man, how come you're not over there dancing?
Studliest Kid at Bar Mitzvah: I asked that girl over there. She turned me down. She said she doesn't dance with losers.
Robbie: Oh man, that hurts. But you know, why would you want to dance with someone who doesn't want to dance with you? (The Wedding Singer)

*Some days your mother and me loved each other. Other days we had to work at it. You never see the hard days in a photo album... but those are the ones that get you from one happy snapshot to the next. I'm sorry your honeymoon stunk but that's what you got dealt. Now you gotta work through it. Sarah doesn't need a guy with a fat wallet to make her happy. I saw how you love this girl. How you two lit each other up. She doesn't need anymore security than that. (Just Married)

*Bianca: There's a difference between like and love. Because, I like my Skechers, but I love my Prada backpack.
Chastity: But I love my Skechers.
Bianca: That's because you don't have a Prada backpack. (10Things I Hate About You)

*ADRIAN! (Rocky)

*I never understood before. I never knew what love was for. My heart was broke, my head was sore. What a feeling. (Brighter than Sunshine, Aqualung)

WINNER WINNER, CHICKEN DINNER

I was writing a new post tonight when I came across a struggle. I want to add a quote from a movie, however, I do not know the title of the movie or the actor who said it. All I know is that the character said they have been waiting for that 'ah ah' moment in their life like in the Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton song Islands in the Stream when they sing ah ah, referring to finding that special someone. Does that make sense? Then they kiss someone later on in the film and say "ah ah" because they finally feel it. I want to say it was a movie in the late 90's maybe when Luke Wilson and Drew Barrymore were popular. Maybe? Help. If you can name the movie and put my mind at ease, you get a chicken dinner on me...well, not ON me. Ready, set, search.

CATCHING UP

It's been awhile since I posted a good blog, assuming some of my posts are good, so I am using this one to do some catching up.

I was taken to the forest to pick mushrooms. A little afraid because the ony mushrooms I have ever picked have been at the supermarket, I learned to stay away from the red ones even though they look so pretty. I was in last place in the mushroom finding contest with only 2 in my basket until I found the biggest and best variety. The next day I used my hunting experience to deliver an amazing talk to the branch in Czech. Houby=mushroom & pokani=repentance. Then we had mushroom soup for lunch.

William got a new ride and I taught him the correct way to drive: one hand on the wheel and the other around the babes.


I found out IKEA dogs are delicious in any language.



My mate Marc from England came for a visit and I think in our 5 days of seeing the Czech countryside he left with a month's worth of stories. Train crashes, dairy farms, Hotel Slovan, Germans and vodka, neverending dumpling feasts, etc. Click here for more photos/insights from this Prague holiday.
