Food Review

I receive e-mails from several restaurants. Lots of places send you coupons and some send free stuff for your birthday. So last week, I got an e-mail from Corner Bakery about signing up for a free breakfast! Their new Berry Almond Swiss Oatmeal. I was pretty excited about a free breakfast.

When I got my oatmeal, I was very surprised. It was cold. Not by accident either. It's supposed to be cold. It was a little different, but not terrible. It had delicious strawberries and blueberries on top. And mixed in with the oatmeal were pieces of green apple and banana. And it was topped with shaved almonds. The best part was probably the raisin crisps on the side. They were delicious! Not sure if I would order it for myself, but not to bad for a free meal.

Movie Review

Tonight while waiting for the Olympic coverage to start, I watched my latest Netfilx pick, Crazy Stupid Love, starring Steve Carell, Julianne Moore, Ryan Gosling, and Emma Stone, just to name a few. 

Synopsis:  Fortysomething straight-laced Cal Weaver (Carell) is living the dream—good job, nice house, great kids and marriage to his high school sweetheart, Emily (Julianne Moore). So when Cal learns that his wife has cheated on him and wants a divorce, his “perfect” life quickly unravels. Cal, who hasn't dated in decades, stands out as the epitome of un-smooth so handsome player Jacob Palmer (Gosling) takes him on as wingman and protégé, opening Cal’s eyes to the many options before him: flirty women, manly drinks and a sense of style. Despite Cal's makeover and his many new conquests, the one thing that can’t be made over is his heart, which seems to keep leading Cal back to where he began. Brimming with inspired performances, critics are calling this gem of a romantic comedy “a movie that understands love” 

I heard this was a good movie so I added it to my Netflix queue. This movie was a cute romantic comedy and was much better then I expected it to be. It was a little predictable but still had moments I didn't expect. A great date night movie!
