"Water For Elephants" - Movie Review - The Possible is Not Always Impossible

Have you ever wanted anything so much that you were willing to do whatever it took to get there even though it seemed impossible? What seems impossible, with a lot of effort and hard work, can be possible. Even if life strips you down to nothing - no family, no friends, no home - completely nothing; just the clothes on your back, you can build your life back up to where you want it.

That situation is shown in the movie, "Water For Elephants," which was originally a book. Even books, like movies, can teach us lessons and ideas towards positive views of life. The movie version of "Water For Elephants" does a wonderful job depicting the situation of building yourself back up from losing everything in your life.

This movie is a must see with a great portrayal of the situation, from the wonderful directing from Francis Lawrence to the amazing acting and cinematography of the film. Overall, the grade I would give this movie is an A.

Raspberry and Tomato Salad

Who doesn't love a nice simple salad for a meal? Salads are a great way to eat light but feel full.

One day I wanted to make a salad for lunch, but I also was feeling very creative. I went through the fruits and vegetables in my fridge, and found some items I wanted to try in a salad. I didn't want to make it too complicated because I just wanted to make something quick to eat… and that would be healthy too.

I wanted to find some way to include them in a quick meal I created. This Raspberry and Tomato Salad is the result of that creative meal. Hope you enjoy it!

Chocolate Chip Muffins

Chocolate Chip Muffins - one of the most popular favorite type of muffins - and my favorite type - but difficult to find a decent recipe.

I was craving chocolate chip muffins but wanted to try to bake them myself. I searched online trying to find a decent recipe. I came across a recipe that included brown sugar and decided to give that recipe a try. Those muffins ended up being the worst muffins - and worst item - I have ever baked my entire life. That's how terrible the recipe was. Plus I am not fond of using brown sugar at all. The recipe, needless to say, did not work for me.

After coming up without any good results for other possible recipes, I decided to take matters into my own hands and figure it out on my own, with my own "trial and error." I started using my Strawberry Cinnamon Muffin recipe as a basis. After lots of trial and error - and getting better and closer to figuring it out each time over months - I had eventually cracked the code to amazing chocolate chip muffins!
I decided to share my recipe with all of you!

I hope you enjoy the muffins as much as my friends, family, and I do! Happy baking!
