Movies and boos
There are two movies I really like that have been adapted from a book, one of them is P.S. I love you, by Cecilia Stern, and the other one is actually the series of two movies of Sherlock Holmes staring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. I'm a big fan of Conan Doyles work, and I really like what was done with this two movies. By the way, here's a post I just wrote about Conan Doyle http://thetravelingbookclub.wordpress.com/2012/08/03/on-writers-and-books-funny-things-ive-read-conan-doyle/

This week I indulged myself with some kidness and innocence by reading some of the Curious George children's books. http://wp.me/p10iHd-fK :D

Well, it wasn't something that I saw, but it was something I heard. Sometimes young people get on the bus to sell candy for the to get some extra money for their studies, so one day, a guy was selling a delicious kind of candy that combines marshmellow, strawberry jam and chocolate, when sudenly he said: "you can buy it without worries, this candy has already being tasted it"... Of course you can imaging my face!

Chataway's Map of Greater Winnipeg Enlarged & Revised Edition (1917)
I am! I totally love maps. I always say that maps make you free, because once you get a map, you can move freely wherever you are. When I arrive to a new city, the very first thing I do is to get a map, then I open it and spend several minutes getting acquainted with the names of the street, the main places and then I places my self where I am and what direction I'm suppossed to go. After that, everything goes really easy. I think I could say I have a "map-graphic" memory ;)

- Epic Sandwich
-
My dreamed sandwich must have thick slices of EUsopean bread, smoked ham, regular pork ham, gruyere cheese, mozzarela cheeze, philadelphia cheese, basil leaves, tomato slices, mayonese, salt, pepper, some olive oil drops and then, when it's ready it must be grilled forsome minutes for the cheeses to melt down. Yum!
And here's a post I've just wrote based on this question: http://thetravelingbookclub.wordpress.com/2012/07/13/imposible-to-resist/
Hope you enjoy it! cheers!
