"Super" Weekend

Yesterday I spent about 4 hours walking the campaign trail for a friend that is running for Judge. I'll post more on my campaigning efforts later, but let me just say that walking for 4 hours in your new black uggs = black feet at the end of the day. Oh well, my black tootsies stayed really warm!

As for today, I'm doing nothing Super Bowl related. I did however go to one of my favorite spots for brunch with four of my favorite people. Here are some pics of the two littles of the four that I brunched with...

Yeah, the photos didn't blend so well together and then my computer locked up before I could fix it and I just quit, but aren't little Bennett and Kate so darn cute! The bottom right is Ben's surprise when he discovered I had a new paparazzi camera and had been taking photos of him.


Last weekend I watched a list of critically acclaimed films and today I'm watching what I've dubbed the "crap pack" of films. They are films that I wanted to see even though I suspect them to be really crappy. I've watched one of the two so far. I watched "Post Grad" because I love Alexis Bledel (even though she is kind of always Rory from Gilmore Girls in my mind no matter what I see her in). It was better than I expected. Before I move on though, let me throw this question out to you... What in the heck happened to Michael Keaton? Yikes! OLD! And not a good old either.

I'm about to watch Wolverine now. Not because I give a hoot about the X-Men or anything similarly related, but because I think Hugh Jackman is dreamy and well, I've read that there is A LOT of Hugh in this one! I'm really deep that way. Hey-sometimes when it comes to picking movies, a girl's just got to leave the Oscar score card at the door!

I probably won't watch much of the Super Bowl, but I'm cheering on the Saints and making Crawfish Etouffee for dinner. It's a big time for my beloved New Orleans...Super Bowl, Mardi Gras and Mitch Landrieu as the new mayor!

We watched The Hangover last night and it was much better then I expected. Pretty funny and not too stupid.

We are staying home and might watch the Super Bowl. Might not since it is starting now and I am watching last weeks Project Runway.

Europe 2024 {Day 10 ~ Munich, Germany}

On December 22nd, I departed Salzburg train station at 8:00 and arrived in Munich at 9:40.  The station is under construction and a real mess!  I finally made my way out and found it was really raining.  I made my way to a taxi and took it to my hotel.  My hotel room wasn't ready but they kept my bags for me and I headed out.   I have been to Munich a couple of times and wanted to see a couple of things I haven't had a chance to do before.  I planned to to go to the Nazi Documentation Center first since it was raining, but when I looked it up on my phone to double check the hours, I learned they had just closed for renovations.  So rain or not, I was going to have to head out to Nymphemburg Palace.  I took the tram out and then walked to the palace. I don't know why, but I didn't take many pictures on the inside. I also bought a ticket to the Royal Stables Museum which houses lots of coaches. I really found all the sleighs to be a sight to see, bu...
