    Your pictures look sooo inviting! Happy New Year! I just made this today in between watching films! I love a movie day!

      Happy New Year to you to Vicky! :) That looks divine! Btw, what movies did you watch?

      • Vicky on January 3, 2012 at 3:37 am

        Happy New Year! Thank you! One film was “Made in Degenham”, a film about women striking at the Ford plant which led to the equal pay for women legislation 2 years later and the other was an old TV mini series which we watched back to back called “on Wings of Eagles” which was surprisingly very very good!

          I haven’t heard of either but I’ll hunt them down.. Guess what I saw… the British comedy series by Ricky Gervais called “Extras”… I enjoyed it thoroughly! :)

          • Vicky on January 3, 2012 at 11:16 am

            I totally agree, Ricky Gervais is so funny! and I think Extras, like The Office, is very close to the mark!
