Sunday Dinner and a Movie

On Sunday, Larry and I were still sick, so we planned something easy for dinner.

Menu:

Grilled burgers

Seasoned steak fries

Salad 

and Stuffed jalapenos

 With the way that we were feeling, Larry thought that either water or Champagne would pair perfectly with burgers.

I asked for Champagne.

Dessert was made from an old recipe... it was a blueberry buckle,

 I would make it for my brother-in-law Dave about 55 years ago. 

I was a teenager when I found the recipe but have not made it in years.

Because I was sick, I thought that dessert deserved a special "something"...and that would be a huge hunk of French butter.

I cannot say how wonderful this tasted. 

(should I post the recipe soon?)

 

The movie was, drum roll...

HAWAII

Larry is reading the novel now, by Mitchner.

Oh my gosh, this movie is LONG!

It is beautiful and well-acted but it is so long and after Champagne with dinner I was about to die.

I do not read Mitchner because his books are so drawn out, but now I know that the movies are just like the books.

We watched the entire movie and I never have to watch it again.

Two more days till February,

make them happy days!

Love you beyond the moon.
