The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success. ~ Elliot Carver in Tomorrow Never Dies Our Friday night Bond movie fest continued this week with Tomorrow Never Dies. The second movie was a suggestion from the Malabrigo Junkie group, M. We enjoyed the second movie more than the first. Maybe Pierce Brosnan…Read more Tomorrow Never Dies and M

Golden Eye
" I enjoy a spirited ride as much as the next girl." ~ Golden Eye This past week was challenging for the British Hubby and I. As challenging as it was, we both believe life is meant to be challenging. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger. A dance party, hot shower, keto pizza and…Read more Golden Eye
Friday the 13th Part 1 and Part 2
"You see, Jason was my son, and today is his birthday." ~ Friday the 13th Many people fear Friday the 13th. Did you know Alfred Hitchcock was born on Friday, August 13, 1899?

Remember Remember
People shouldn't be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people. I love Guy Fawkes day. The British celebrate a plot to blow up parliament. Soon it will be 400 years since this event took place. With any luck, the British Hubby will be in England to celebrate. We've had great fun…Read more Remember Remember

Live your beliefs and you can turn the world around. ~ Henry David Thoreau The weather is turning colder, and it's election day here in the States.

Haunted Handwarmers: Day 8
"Double, double toil and trouble; fire burn, and cauldron boil." William Shakespeare This is Halloween. This is Halloween. Okay, I maybe watching The Nightmare Before Christmas today just so I could sing that song all weekend long! In my defense, I was singing the song before I watched the movie. It's just such a catchy…Read more Haunted Handwarmers: Day 8
Haunted Handwarmers: Day 7
During the day, I don't believe in ghosts. At night I'm a little more openminded. It's the last week of October. Last week was really cold in the PNW. I need to keep knitting on these mitts. My knitted spooky themed apparel is seriously lacking. Day 7 means I'm official over half way done! I…Read more Haunted Handwarmers: Day 7
