So far today, I have:
- Eaten leftovers from El Coyote (where they charged me 50 cents for pickled jalapenos, which they did not inform me about! Really, people? I don't think that's something they should charge for.)
- Made some rotini with butter, parm and pepper. Adam had some very helpful directions, which made for a butter-blunder-free pasta snack.
- Re-watched Volver. I loved it in when I saw it in the theater and a while back, I was able to buy the DVD for super cheap thanks to those persistent Borders Rewards emails and a gift card. I have been meaning to open the DVD for months; it was just as good as I remembered. Thanks, staycation!

I thought Penelope Cruz was excellent in "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," which made me want to re-watch "Volver" too! This entry just reminded me that I haven't gotten around to it yet. :)
I'm working this weekend and tomorrow, so no vacation - stay, or otherwise - for me! :( I hope you're enjoying the long weekend! :D
I haven't seen Vicky Cristina Barcelona yet, if you can believe it! It's on the top of my list, though.
Sorry you have to work through the holiday! :( By the way, your wedding preparations are dizzying, Julia. You must be drinking a lot of caffeine, ma'am... and err, of course, you are marrying the love of your life, so are full of energy and excitmenet. :)
That's also on my list of things to watch!
I'm totally doing the whole staycation thing...but only on a weekend. :) We're planning on hitting up a few museums we haven't seen in a while!
Su-Lin, Volver is great and since I've written this post, I've seen Vicky Cristina Barcelona, in which Penelope Cruz does a superb job. I recommend both!
I live close to a museum, but haven't been in quite some time. It's so perfect for weekends, but I have been dragging my feet. I could use a healthy dose of culture! :)
