What country, friends, is this?

That was Shakespeare. I just wanted to impress you with an intellectual first quote. It will be downhill from here.

I am NOT a connoisseur of art movies- in fact, I apparently can't even spell connoisseur-- but I adored Babette's Feast. That and Like Water for Chocolate which rivals Blazing Saddles for a flatulence scene.

Did you know that the punching the horse scene was a take-off on a story about Sid Caesar who had a terrible temper and allegedly punched out a horse on a set one day?

A lovely thread with some of my favorite people...I hope you don't mind my washing up on your shores for a moment.
