Alrighty, so first up, we have fashion from Gap Spring 2009. There was a runway show back in September 2008 & here are a few photos of what the models were wearing.
The first, I think, is pretty cute. I'm really into big purses so this ensemble caught my eye. I'm definitely a T-shirt kinda' girl, so this exudes with comfort for me! The second one is pretty neat for a guy. If my guy wore Gap, this would be something I'd buy! Casual & comfy but could still be worn out to dinner! Now the 3rd pic is just NICE =D Moving right along! The last one is just plain wrong on so many levels, not to mention the girl looks like a mannequin! Is that a mannequin? Now you see why I'm puzzled :|
Ok so you're all dressed & ready to go out for some fun, so off to the movies! You get to the theatre but decide "Monsters VS. Aliens" (I love Kiefer but I'll wait for the DVD) isn't exactly what you want to watch so you & your GAP fashion BF hike over to the video store for a night in - you can get dressed up to sit on the couch, what!
My new favorite movie is "Seven Pounds" with Will Smith & Rosario Dawson! OMG talk about the perfect date movie... although I watched it while someone sat next to me & SNORED!!! Anyhoot, Academy Award® nominee Will Smith (2006, Best Actor, The Pursuit of Happyness) stars as Ben Thomas, a man at a crossroads. He embarks on a journey to help change the circumstances of seven strangers who deserve a second chance in life. But when he opens his heart to a beautiful woman who needs his help, he risks everything he's planned for one last chance at love. From the director of The Pursuit of Happyness comes this "life changing motion picture you will not easily forget" - Pete Hammond, HOLLYWOOD.COM.
This was an absolutely amazing movie. I'm not a cry baby or anything (well, yes I am) but I cried a good bit during this movie. It's a very sweet movie. This man decides he's going to do all he can to help others then makes the ultimate sacrifice out of love. It's just a great movie, really. So if you haven't seen it, get it & watch it! If you have seen it, get it & watch it again! Here's a little clip to get your interested =)
Alright, the movie's all done & you're both starved. "Supper" time - shut up; I'm from the country!
If you guys don't already know, I love food! I love to eat & I enjoy cooking things that I really, really like. Two of my favorite foods are pan seared chicken & shrimp scampi, so anytime I can eat them together, I'm all for it! So with that, I bring one of my favorite dishes with two of my favorite foods! I usually it this with a baked potato, new potatoes or a salad, but you can also try it with pasta or rice.
Ingredients:
* 2 to 3 boneless chicken breast halves or tenders, about 1 pound
* 1 pound large shrimp
* 6 tablespoons butter
* 1/4 cup olive oil
* 4 medium cloves garlic, smashed and minced
* 1/4 cup of chopped green onions
* 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley, or 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon Creole seasoning or seasoned salt blend
Preparation:
Lightly pound chicken between sheets of plastic wrap to an even thickness. Cut in strips about 1-inch wide.
In a large skillet, melt the butter with olive oil. Add garlic, green onions, parsley, salt, and seasoning. Heat over medium low heat and add the chicken and shrimp. Cook the shrimp and chicken mixture, stirring, for about 10 to 15 minutes, until cooked through. If shrimp are small, add them in a few minutes after adding chicken. Serve with potatoes, pasta, rice or salad. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, if desired.
Serves 4 to 6.
