  1. Mimi --

    We could be RELATED! I was so excited about all of the things we have in common, I nearly didn't see your link love {thank you!}. I could exist on fried chicken, Life of Pi is the only of your movies I haven't seen {though I loved the book} and I want to see it soon! LOVE all the others you names. I live on M&Ms, I swear by cetaphil and cerave, and we served homemade pralines at our rehearsal dinner. I bet you even say the word "praline" correctly...unlike some people who don't know better. :) I don't think any show could ever beat "Lost" and your quotes made me smile and laugh. Love this list and again, happy happy birthday!
