Filmed with style and beauty

It doesn't take Hollywood to make a truly beautiful and touching movie! This BBC version of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe was thrilling. The actors (especially the child-actors) were well-chosen and gifted. The scenes were done with taste, not a lot of glitz, but instead with sensitivity, beauty and one is left with the feeling that this experience is not all that "out there". The Lion demonstrates memorably, life-changings acts of Love, and his role resembles the role God would play in the lives of believers. The witch, on the other hand, is the other force alive in our world today - evil. These were children, and despite obstacles put in their path, good overcame evil - the story is so unique in its storyline, and this BBC version is far superior in my opinion, to the other version.

Liz would be proud

Found a wonderful chef's chili recipe which apparently was the chili that Liz Taylor craved while on set filming Cleopatra. This particular recipe is the very one cooked up and it required Gebhardt chili powder - no substitutes. The chili turned out delicious - different than most chili recipes made with "regular" chili powder. The recipe requires half of one of these bottles, but if it's flavour your after, you will get it here. It does indeed make all the difference to use this particular chili powder.

I Believe in Miracles!!!

Miracle Worker foundation has enough coverage to make a difference on my aging skin - yes I have wrinkles, but this foundation seems to diminish the look of them rather than outline them and make them look even deeper in my face, like some other foundations do. It is not too heavy, and I was pleased to be able to choose a shade on-line that works well with my complexion. Not oily and not drying. I recommend this product.
