Today I am happy that I got to watch Dirty Dancing in the movie theater. That is the very first movie I ever saw in the theater without my parents. I was nine and I was in love with the movie. A lot of the mature situations went over my head and I didn't realize until way later what really went on. This was the last movie in this particular Classic Movie Series. The past six weeks I have sang along with Grease and entire theater of people. I also got to introduce my daughter to Back to the Future and Ghostbusters, and I got to see two movies I had never seen, Animal House and American Graffiti. Tonight was the best ending; because "Nobody puts Baby in the corner" and the audience going crazy after that line. Priceless experience.
Photo Day 14: On a stick
For this one I took some photos; but I didn't like the way they turned out. I am going to try again tomorrow. So for now I leave you with one from the archive; my very first cake pops I ever made way back in February or March I believe. They were pink lemonade. They were so pretty.

Take me to the movies
Day 3: Last movie you saw at the theater.
I have seen this three times in the theater so far. I am itching to go back and see it again. The Fast and the Furious 6. I love all of the wonderful man candy and cars. I also usually like the plot line too. Ugh, now I really want to see it again.

Oh, I forgot we took Elexis to see Monsters University (okay, so she tagged along while my husband and I went and saw it...lol) The first Monster's Inc. movie came out when she was 2 1/2. We didn't know if it was going to be scary for her, so my husband and I went and saw it alone. We were the only adults without children in the theater. I want to make Mike Wazowski cake pops. I think those would be really fun.

My favorite movie
Day 24: Your favorite movie and what it is about
My favorite movie is about a townsperson who loves to read. Her dad is the town crazy inventor. She has this man who will do anything to get this woman to marry him, even though he has his pick of women who want to be his wife. All this girl really wants is adventure in the great wide somewhere. Her dad sets off to a fair to show his latest invention. On the way there, he gets lost and takes refuge in a castle. What he doesn't know is this castle is enchanted. Inside lives a beast that must fall in love before his 21st birthday. When the father's horse returns to the cottage, the daughter sets out to find her dad. She too comes across the enchanted castle. When confronted with the beast, she offers to stay there as his prisoner if he lets the dad go. The beast obliges.
The ridiculously good looking man devises a plan to get the girl to marry him, by having her dad committed. The girl is starting to get settled in the castle. She is befriended by a candlestick, a clock, a teapot, and her son a cup. She teaches the beast to be more gentle and less temperamental. When she finds out that her father is ill, she goes back to town to help him. When the townspeople call them crazy, she brings out an enchanted mirror and shows that the beast is real. Then the ridiculously good looking man feels he must kill the beast. There is a fight and the beautiful girl thinks that the beast is dying. She tells the beast that she loves him just as the last petal falls from an enchanted rose. I will not spoil the ending.
If you haven't guessed yet, my favorite movie (and has been since I was 13) is Beauty and the Beast. Yes, I love other movies, but this movie is my go-to comfort movie. It is also my favorite musical as well. My favorite series of movies are the Fast and the Furious.
Photo Day 24: Negative Space - Last night's super moon. It was beautiful, though it didn't seem any larger than it does on any other night.

Movies I never get tired of watching
This is probably one of my favorite prompts. I love rewatching movies.
Here are some of my favorites:
Beauty and the Beast (favorite movie EVER)
Grease
Dirty Dancing
That Thing You Do
Serendipity
Fast Five
The Sandlot
Elf
Adventures of Milo and Otis
Oliver and Company
Monsters Inc.
The Breakfast Club
Pretty Woman
I could keep going on and on... I own all of these movies and watch them regularly. I will watch most Disney movies over and over (you would think I have small children...my baby is 12).
EDIT ** I can't believe I forgot ET!! I've watched it 3 times in the past 2 weeks.
