dinner and a movie: Mr. Brooks

November 18, 2007

Wonderful film, a bit of the gore at the end that went on forever, but tremendous chemistry between Costner and Hurt.

Dinner was a little of this and that, dim sum, fried chicken legs, leftover spaghetti, BLTs. Don’t ask, it just worked out that way.

cannoli? eclairs? lime tarts?

As I was debating which mini dessert to get, the older fellow in front of us turned around abruptly.

Fellow: Cannoli? It’s sooo good.
Me: Uh. . .
Fellow: I mean, look at all this stuff. It’s all great.
Me: Yeah, I . . .
Fellow: But me, I can’t eat it. (Pats stomach) Man, I’m just getting this for my mom.
Me: Heh, that’s . . .
Fellow: But, gee, the cannoli!

I got the carrot cake muffins, which turned out to be vegan.
