I mentioned Hideki Kamiya's masterpiece Okami in my Holiday Buyer's Guide before Christmas, but I won't let that preclude the full review this game deserves. And what better time than now, with Kamiya's newest game, Bayonetta, being released Jan. 5.
Movie review of
"Avatar" 3D
By Hannah Chappell-Dick
Before I saw Avatar, I must say that I was a 3D skeptic. The half red, half blue glasses of the past made me dizzy, and though it was cool when virtual objects were flying towards you at high speeds, it just wasn't worth the headache that inevitably ensued afterwards.
Paula Scott offers this coffee formula in response to the column on "I can't make a good cup of coffee."
Paula's great coffee for one average-size mug:
Grind some whole beans yourself on or near the day you will make the coffee. The darker and shinier the beans look, the better they probably are. (However, I don't make "Char-bucks" style coffee and usually avoid French and Italian roasted beans.)
Get one of those cone contraptions that sit on top of your mug. Put in a paper cone filter and two heaping scoops of ground coffee.
It's funny how books can influence my activities. Not funny ha ha, but funny strange....but that's a whole other blog topic. Anyway, Anne gave me Julie and Julia for Christmas, so I'm determined to finish the book before I watch the movie. Besides, Lindsay says the book is much better than the movie, so I figure I'll enjoy the best first.
You won't believe how great this pie tastes and how easy it is to make. Plus, all the ingredients are already in your kitchen. There's a warning at the bottom of the recipe.
