We made cookies and ate them for both breakfast and lunch. We watched True Grit, and I was taken by surprise given all the gun-shooting, western stuff. Can we talk about this movie? I know I'm late to the game, but was that the most incredible and incredibly weird and wonderful stilted and formal writing and speech you've ever heard in a movie? I loved it. Jeff Bridges? I love him. That girl? I loved her. Matt Damon? I loved him and his silly Texas ways. Iris Dement singing at the end? I loved it. That last shot? Gorgeous.

I completely agree!
I love Iris Dement. All the rest, not so much.
Oh, I do like the idea of cookies for breakfast and lunch. Dinner too.
Best,

Absolutely agree.
About cookies for breakfast and lunch, too.
I GOTTA watch that movie.
I wish I had some of those cookies. I haven't had supper yet and it's time for bed and they would be perfect.
Cookies in the middle of the night too. Calories don't count between midnight and 8 a.m.
Why do your chocolate chip cookies look so much better than mine? Oh that's right, you ARE a pastry chef. Forgot. I think I need your recipe. Really!
My dear friend Belinda's very first scene, in the very first movie she ever did, was a nude love scene with Jeff Bridges. Could you imagine?!! She said he was very sweet and respectful. And sexy.
I haven't seen the movie, but I read Charles Portis's book years ago and I loved that. I'll have to check out the film now. (I thought it never rained in California? Was that '70s pop song lying to me?)
Yum! I haven't seen the movie either.
Can we have the cookie recipe? They look delish!!!!
so now i have to watch true grit because, on your recommendation, i am obsessed with breaking bad.
Happy Snow Day to you and the gang. What a great idea.
My husband likes the original True Grit with John Wayne but like you, I am more partial to Jeff Bridges!
Sounds like a perfect day.
So pleased you took it.
Love.
yeah that was a really really good movie - but I was sad in the end
