2. Sopa de chili poblano from Victorias in Neuovo Laredo Mexico
3. Enchiladas Verdes again from Victorias or from My mother-in-law
4. Bread Pudding with Rum Sauce - Papadauxes (sp?)

Websites I visit
1. www.realsimple.com - I love how they make life seem so simple (what the heck are the talking about? LIFE IS NOT SIMPLE - but theirs looks so nice, but I think I must need to go shopping because I only have 2 of the 10 things every kitchen needs, but wait I thought the key to the simple life was less stuff, humm they must mean other stuff)
2. www.abebooks.com - This is the enabler of my addiction BOOKS BOOKS CHEAP BOOKS
3. www.biblegateway.com - for my studies

1. Riverbend Retreat Center with a good book.
2. Mountains in Arkansas in a cabin with a good book.
3. Rocky Mountains in a cabin with a good book.
4. Appalachian Mountains in a cabin with a good book.
5. And Italy in a villa with Farfalla con pollo al sugo bianco, a good merlot, and a good book (oh and maybe Andrea Bocolli to sing to me :))

Movies I love
1. Life is Beautiful and The Tiger in the Snow (both by Roberto Benigni
2. The whole extended edition of the Lord of the Rings Triology with ALL the extra features (especially the hidden easter egg with Jack Black and Sarah Michelle Geller which is by the way NOT kid appropriate)
3. Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, and Emma (all from Jane Austin books)
4. Oh Brother Where Art Thou (I LOVE George Clooney in this movie)

I am so impressed you don't watch television. I keep thinking I can do it and not watch anything anymore...it doesn't work. So I have started watching mostly HGTV and that way, I am just learning how to make my house sale ready, purchase a house in another country, do a room makeover for 1000...ugh! Thanks for commenting, I do love Bible Gateway...I have really actually read my Bible by using that program!!! Have a great weekend! Oh, I love love love Papa Deuxes (I cant spell that one). And there is a mexican restaurant (not papasitos) I love, I think it's like rico's or something like that. My parents live in Houston.

I just spent the last 20 minutes listening to Andrea Bocelli on Youtube. Wow!! My favorite was his rendition of Elvis' I Can't Help Falling In Love With You for PBS.
