[personal profile] akscully is such a terrible influence. She said two things to me that I cannot get out of my head now (GoT related, so kind of spoilery, but I dare you to even know what the hell we're talking about unless you've read it):

Cutting due to possibly not being work safe. )

In NON-SPOILERY GoT love, here is the opening credit sequence of the show. No spoilers (unless you don't want to know the actors' names), just awesomeness. I LOVE this opening sequence, the music, the artistry, everything.



I have made good headway on my fic exchange story, though at the moment I have no idea how to end it. You don't know how often this happens to me.

I've started re-watching Band of Brothers on Blu-ray. I just can't say enough about this show. It is so incredibly well done. Possibly the best TV series/movie/miniseries ever made. It's too bad that because it's the true story of these WWII veterans, people who don't like watching stuff about war will never get to see it or be touched by their story. I mean, Winters/Nixon is like the mother (or should I say father) of all bromances. Aaaaahhhh! I could go on and on but I'll just stop here.

In less stellar entertainment, I saw The A-Team movie. I loooooooooved the TV show as a kid, so I was really looking forward to this movie, especially since Liam Neeson and Bradley Cooper are in it. Unfortunately, it was poorly done. There were fun moments, but the plot and the pacing were messes. The actors they chose were mostly great. Surprisingly, the one who didn't seem to really fit was Liam Neeson. He just wasn't right. Jessica Biel --> BLEH. I really wanted it to be more than it was. (As an aside, seriously... how did Bradley Cooper get to be so hot? He was such a putz on Alias that I freaking hated his character. Then suddenly he wasn't on that show anymore and he got smoking. I mean, Bradley Cooper > Michael Vartan x 10000000000000000, yet somehow Alias made it seem like the reverse! It's inexplicable.)

I am all pasta'ed out. Maggiano's w/ the DG gals yesterday was fabulous, but I ate WAY too much. They're still doing their classics special, which means you choose a heaping portion of pasta to eat there, and choose another one to take home. The portions are ridiculously huge, especially the eggplant parmesan that [personal profile] slitherhither and [personal profile] adelagia got. That thing could have fed a small country. We also shared this dessert sampler that was SO GINORMOUS! I thought each dessert in the sampler was going to be a small little thing, and they were like, regular-sized, practically.

Then I went to K.'s for dinner, and guess what she had to use up? That's right, PASTA.

My carb count yesterday must've been astronomical. And it doesn't even stop there, since I have my take-home spaghetti with meatballs!

Calling all favorite Crock Pot recipes -- what are your favorites?? I have Crock Pot books but I'm more interested in recipes that people have actually used and love/make all the time... the recipes I've gotten from other people vs books have almost always been better. So if you have a fave recipe, please share!

TV Show Meme, Day 17 - Favorite mini series: Band of Brothers

I was conflicted between Band of Brothers and Rome, but in the end had to give it to BoB. It's just one of the most amazingly done TV projects ever. The acting, the storytelling, the filming, everything was just of the highest caliber. I was riveted for the entire 10 hours.
