What a beautiful, long weekend (hooray for Tuesday/Thursday classes!). I saw Jane Eyre and have nothing but love and adoration for the film. I can't stop thinking about it: the cinematography, the script, the perfect casting. I really could go on and on. But most importantly, it brought me back to the text. After seeing the movie I found my old high school Norton edition with all of my comments and began rereading. It's just as beautiful as when I first read it four years ago.
Among other things, I always appreciate a relaxing weekend at home. I worked on photos for my digital photography class, had a lot of quality family time, and found the perfect veggie burger and sweet potato fries two minutes from my house (unfortunately, I couldn't slow myself down to stop and take photos). Filipino dessert at brunch, Sunday in the park, and watermelon paletas were just the icing on the cake.
you look super cute in that photo. and i want to see that movie now.

ReplyDeleteHey Michelle-- the dessert is turon (a sweet banana and some jack fruit fried in a wrapper similar to egg roll wrappers) and the ice cream is taro flavored. So delicious!
