That’s Italiano and more!

I had an Italian Party this past weekend. It was really fun and we had some good food! Thanks to Johnsonville for sending me free coupons for Italian Sausage. Good food and good friends and family. I made my home made Alfredo sauce, dang it was good!


So, a couple of weekends ago, Carl and I watched Paranormal Activity 2. We had already seen the first one, and it was spooky, so we rented the second one. Let me just say that this one freaked me the hell out! I think it was because the demon was after the little baby and me having 3 small children, man, it scared me. For those who haven’t seen it, they tie it to the first one in a well done way. It sure was freaky though. I don’t think I need to be watching anymore paranormal stuff. It is starting to get to me as I get older.

Beastly Movie

So this weekend, I went to see Beastly with a friend. It’s a modern day teen Beauty and the Beast. I thought it was actually pretty good. It’s definitely geared towards the teen/tween female audiences, while they try to put in some more adult situations to bring in the older crowd, but it was pretty well done. I think it’s helpful to sometimes remind kids that being a brat or stuck up, does have consequences. But to also let them see that people aren’t always what they seem and there may actually be other factors at play behind the scenes that can cause someone to be or act the way they do. Definitely a movie that I’ll take my daughter to see, as I’m sure she’ll like the beast who likes to walk around a lot with his shirt off. =)


The teenager in this movie is actually almost 21, so it’s a little less annoying to me that Hollywood keeps putting these ‘boys’ into movies while having them wear less clothes. (Jacob in Twilight?) I wonder if this causes boys of this age to think that they must look like these boys, as you know many girls have that problem, while seeing so many of TV’s actresses who have that perfect body? Having these boys that are ripped like an adult and walking around with no shirts on, does that cause boys to worry about how they look with their shirts off? Just another thing for today’s youth to worry about.

Anyhow, I would recommend it for mommies with teen girls, as it’s not over the top about sexuality. For those girls who love Twilight, I think this goes along the same lines.
