The Good Shepherd

I watched this movie last night. Originally we wanted to watch "Hot Fuzz" (a British comedy) but it was completely sold out and we decided to watch this instead (we were gonna go and watch it sometime soon anyway). Its almost 3 hours long! But is a great movie. I enjoyed it very much and its definitely worth watching. As always, Mat Damon is fantastic - I didn't like his glasses though :-)

Below is the link to the movie synopsis. Its showing in UK now.

I am off to prepare - today is my driving lesson! woohoo! so please whatever you are doing - get off the road! I am coming your way!

Music and Lyrics

I saw this movie today. Its great chick flick! I wasn't expecting it to be any good but my friend dragged me to watch it and I actually found it good and funny! I like feel good and happy movies.

Round up ...

“It was cricket as it might have been written by Kafka: a hideous punishment, as unjust as it was incomprehensible, inflicted on people who had earned the right to expect better things from life. It was like playing cricket against the Gestapo: cricket as a form of atrocity in which resistance is useless. It was cricket as torture, in which pain and hatred become distorted into a loving and grateful submission to the torturer.”

This is one of my favourite cakes! Whenever I am in Stockholm, I have to have some of this.

I have found a recipe online and it looks pretty long. I would love to one day try my hand on baking this cake!
