Family Days

So I definitely watch more TV now that I can tape the shows :) My third tv show I love to watch (after Ugly Betty and Pushing Daisies) is called Brothers and Sisters. It comes on Sunday nights and I'm slightly addicted. It's great because the family dynamics are so real. Robb doesn't think so but then again he has no brothers or sisters...although I'm pretty sure he doesn't think he missed out on anything :) I love that families always have that love/hate relationship thing going and it reminds me that I do sometimes (and sometimes more often) miss mine.

Daisy Days

Our New York friend, who lives nearby, and I love this new show called Pushing Daisies. If you haven't watched it or haven't heard of it, the show is about a guy who has this "gift" of being able to bring dead things alive with a touch. However, if he touches them again they will go back to being dead. It's an odd concept but the show is fabulously funny. I love its dark humor. But the show is so bright...tons of primary colors, quirky funny characters, and I love that the clothes are from an odd era...maybe the sixties?

Anyway...so he came over and cooked us dinner, I bought the wine, and we watched the show. Amazing how much more TV I watch now that we have DVR. The show is on at eight and we didn't get around to watching it until about 9:30. He cooked an amazing concoction of ginger chicken with red pepper flakes and cayene pepper over jasmine rice, broccoli, and sauted onions. Mmmm. Super spicy which I LOVE! Oh...and the wine I got is from Chile called Santa Rita 120...best six buck wine I've tasted....if you find it try it :)

Betty Days

So I don't watch TV too often for various reasons:

A) I am way to antsy
B) I never can remember when shows come on and
C) I like movies better.

Having said that, I am addicted to the show Ugly Betty. That show cracks me up. I started watching it on lunch breaks in my cubicle at my job in Las Vegas. Good tip, you can watch lots of show episodes on ABC's website. It was so funny because she's an assistant and I was an assistant. She lived in New York and I was moving there. Also, because it's just plain darn funny. I missed yesterday's season premier but Robb taped it for me so he could watch the football game. I had to do homework anyway...which I ended up not doing, to practice my karaoke. Hey...I have to keep my priorities straight :) Anyway...if you ever get the chance to check it out...do it...and tell me who your favorite character is.
