June 18 2010 - Didn't expect Miley would make me cry

Hey there

As most of you know, Melodye is not the only family I have in San Antonio. We had made planes to meet up with the others tomorrow and have a (that's how I call it) canadian dinner, meaning, everyone brings something along. I decided to make a meringue rasberry cake. So after watching say yes to the dress, Melodye, Cassidee and I went to the grocery store to shope for ingredients. We weren't sure if we'd find rasberry but you know what?, they were the first thing we saw when we entered the store.

Back home Cassidee and me had some lunch and then left to go to the movies. We went all the way across town to see The last song. It had been out for a while here, that's why it was only shown in one cinema. It was a dollar movie. You don't know what that is? Well, neighter did I. But now that I know what it is, it goes on the list of things I want to have in Switzerland too. So, when movies have been shown for a while at the theater, instead of just quitting showing them, they are still shown in dollar movie theatres. Which means, you go see an "older" movie and pay very little money for it. I saw this movie for 1.50$!!! Can zou imagine that???? 1.50$ I had never seen a movie at a real theatre for 1.50$!!!!!!!!!

I was sceptical about the movie though. I normally love Nicholas Sparks movies but the last one, Dear John, really wasn't good at all, it was actually boring. So I didn't know how this one had turned out plus, it had Miley Cyrus in it and I really am not a fan of her.
It turned out the movie was absolutely fantastic. I cried almost through the whole thing but it was totally worth the 1.50$. It would also have been worth the regular price. So if you haven't seen it, run.....

here's the trailer to get an idea:

Back home, I got started on my cake. I had some trouble to get the meringue of the baking parchment but it turned out ok. Also, it was the first time I made it with fresh rasberries. Back home it's always frozen ones, fresh is just to expensive, here it was ok. Can't wait to taste it tomorrow.

Finished the day by watching the first two episodes of the new season of say yes to the dress (yes I am an addict!)
