I painted my nails tonight for a wedding I’m attending tomorrow. I’ve been getting really good at painting the tips free hand due to all the wedding I’ve been to this summer. I think they turned out really nicely.
Tonight I watched A Clockwork Orange for the first time. I have been apprehensive about watching this since I’m not a Stanley Kubrick fan and the last time I watched his movie, I was very unsettled afterward. Thanks to some helpful prodding, I was encouraged to try it and wasn’t AS horrified as I guess I could’ve been. Obviously I was prepared but the fanciful nature of which the film was shot helped placate some of the horrific scenes. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll never watch this again. Definitely not my kind of film, but it’s definitely unique on the film landscape. Part action, part horror, part psychological thriller, it pushes all the boundaries—and all of your buttons—to challenge your expectations of movies.
Ethan woke me up bright and early today. I want to say it’s because he knew we were canning this pasta sauce, strawberry jam and applesauce recipe today, but in reality, he was just hungry. Either way, it got me going early. Once I got up, I pretty much got going. I donned my apron (see right) and started getting to work.
Here’s the big pot to boil water to heat up the jars.
