French + Blog

Hello! I was sort of bored so I changed my dashbored {now it's Tableau de bord} to french...that's me completely random and weird. But hey, aren't we all at times?

Blog:
So for those of you who didn't know I started off with a fashion blog... and it didn't turn out as well as I hoped so I started this one. The other day I was thinking about starting some fashion posts on here but, I decided to re-start, in a matter of speaking, my blog, it's name is now Fahion {c'est la vie} next week {hopefully} I will start with weekly posts/pictures of some of my outfits that I love so check out, and maybe follow, my fashion blog.

Gnomeo & Juliet

Since It's Shakespeare week at The Erratic Muse  and I just have seen this movie I thought I'd share my thoughts on it :) First of all I love how they took such a serious, romantic classic and made it into a cute, funny movie for all ages. And since it's a cartoon and they're gnomes they aren't perfect famous people we wish we could be like, just cute and real.
One of my favorite characters is Nanette {the Nanny} she is hilarious and crazy, she will make you laugh. One thing I like is watching all the garden decorations "come alive" :) 
The yards: Montagues {Blues} and the Capulets {Red}

Marvelous Monday's

Here's something new and {hopefully!} exiting on my blog, today I am starting "Marvelous Monday's"

Which is a post about anything I think is marvelous each Monday so be on the lookout!

 Chocolate-covered-strawberry's. enough said.

 Nail-polish, particularly this one. I know this sounds awfully girlie but its the perfect shade of pink! 

 This view. The picture was taken from inside a car so sorry for the little reflection on the top right ;)
 BRIDE & PREJUDICE, hilariously cheesy version of pride & prejudice. I laugh so hard every time I watch it! I loved it so much I got the soundtrack from the library.

Well this was a fun post! :) 

I hope you liked it to

Charade



...One of my favorite Audrey Hepburn movies.

 
This mystery suspense is killing, it will keep you on your toes.
Ah, the pictures moving! This freaked me out.






Poor Reggie [Audrey] doesn't know who to trust! I thought I had this mystery figured out multiple times but in the end I failed.






 My conclusion:
Old movies are the best, this movie is well written, Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant are superb [although in my opinion Cary's a little to old for her]. You will laugh, you will bite your nails, you will sigh and [if your anything like me] you will be surprised with the ending!

Have any of you seen this? If you have I would love to hear what you thought in a comment!

pouffs = love at first taste

Pouffs - a tragedy/love story

Once upon a time there were some lonely ingrediants :( so they all decided to jump in to a bowl and run around, then they got all mixed up and went into the oven! When they came out they were all pouffy and stuck together. So some other hot and thin ingrediants, who were melting in a pot, decided to walk all over the pouffs, but got stuck. Then a giant [human] came and saw the pouffs with the caremal sauce, it was love at first taste! The human gobbled them up very quickly. The End!! 

Pouffs... like a pancake, but pouffy, you make it in the oven and it's way better! Heres the recipe, and you have to make the caremal sauce also [to get the full effect]
