Givng You Hopes And Desire For April

‘Hopes and Desires’ is this months giveaway.  It is a fine art reproduction of my original. Printed on bamboo paper with archival inks and  mounted on a 3″x4″ wood stretcher.   (VALUE $25 on ETSY)

So recently I watched the  2001 German movie  ‘Mostly Martha’. I have seen it before but not since I have had children. I had forgotten how sad it was, even though it is billed as a romantic comedy.  I found myself literally sobbing for the eight year old girl in the movie. I guess that is what becoming a mother will do to you, it is unbearable to watch children suffer. Not that it was bearable before I had children but now, I literally feel physical pain in my heart when I hear about a child suffering.

Besides that, because , that is not what I wanted to talk about, this movie was a foodie movie.  Martha is a OCC head chef in an upscale restaurant in Germany.  The way she talks about food and the process of making it is just brilliant. I love watching the FOOD channel , I collect cookbooks and EPICURIOUS is my favorite APP on my iphone, so this movie really thrilled me.

Do you have a movie that has thrilled you like this? Taken something that you have a passion for and made it part of the characters’ life or the background through out  the movie? OR has a  book made you feel this way?

ALSO

If you have anymore foodie movies or books for me, please share. I am having a craving for them…

AND THEN…
