It Ain’t Country…..

But I LOVE it……………….

I can’t get this song outta my head.

I wanna dance like that, sing like that and most of all have legs like that.

If you missed the spoof version on SNL with Justin Timberlake….here’s that link. Mind you don’t pee your pants though, it’s excruciatingly funny.

This is my favourite Christmas movie……..

Tuesday, December 16th, 2008

Well…..other than “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” of course….

 It’s called “One Magic Christmas” and it’s about an Angel named Gideon and how he helps a little girl  and her family cope and overcome tragedy one Christmas. Many parts of it are very sad but there’s a big ol’ Christmas miracle at the end!

Rent it….buy it…..just watch. You’ll love it and recognize some very famous faces AND places. Some of it was filmed around Meaford and Owen Sound.

The actor who plays Gideon is Harry Dean Stanton who was in “Pretty in Pink” and most recently on the show “Big Love” with Chloe Soveigny and Bill Paxton. Another great show…but I digress. Canadian gal Sarah Polley also has a role in “One Magic Christmas.”

My Mama and I used to curl up and watch this flick every year. I hope I’ll do it with my babies someday too.

So I was thinking…..

that maybe I’d like to make  a roast duck for Christmas. I was actually going to solicit your help via jennifer@kix106online.com because I’ve never roasted a duck before. I’ve eaten duck and loved it.  Then while searching for photos for this post I found this:

and  quickly realized ducks are far too cute for me to cook. I don’t want to turn that sweet little waddler into this:

It’s a good thing turkeys are ugly.
