jenniferrenee I am glad I watched the movie first, because I liked the movie a lot. I'm sure if I read the book first I would have been disappointed. I will be reading the book this month. Glad to know it is really good.

jenniferrenee Did you ever end up seeing it? It is a really good movie, in part because Anne Hathaway studied everything ever written by Jane Austen that is still around, including letters and such. She even learned to play piano for the role.

Who agrees with me: The movie absolutely ruined the story telling of the book. My mother and I share books and discuss them, and we both found Memoirs a delightful read, and as such, when we heard about the release of the movie...

jenniferrenee I agree that sometimes books are murdered when being adapted for film; however, there are many good books I would never have read, had I not seen the movies and had my interest piqued. For instance, I started the H.P. series after being dragged to the first...

jenniferrenee My solution to being "just another case" with my first child was to see a Certified Nurse-Midwife (CNM) for my third pregnancy. (I miscarried my second.) She spent a good amount of time with prenatal visits not acting like it was a bother if I had questions,...

jenniferrenee It was embarrassing at the time but funny in retrospect. I will have a lot of funny stories to tell her children someday if she ever tries to say she has the most embarrassing kids ever.

jenniferrenee I definitely prefer Pepsi. I will usually drink water rather than Coca Cola. I can tolerate Coca Cola if it has grenadine added to it, but otherwise it has a weird aftertaste to me. I am trying to limit my soda anyway because it is so unheathful, but it is...

jenniferrenee My 4 year old daughter is always embarrassing. One time before Christmas we were in a store, and she said, "That mommy looks just like you." I just thought, whatever you say, she looks nothing like me. Then she finishes (loudly), "She's fat just like you."So...

jenniferrenee Most casseroles can be made low-fat if you just substitute low-fat versions of the cream soups and cheeses. That's what I do. Hope that helps!
