Scandinavian Christmas' (in honor of my besottedness with Alexander Skarsgard)


Amelia blogs ...I'm in charge of dinner this year and after much thought (5 minutes) I've decided to theme it `A Scandinavian Christmas' (in honor of my besottedness with Alexander Skarsgard). I've plans for ham and poached salmon, red cabbage and schnapps

Sounds nice but may i ask what does
besottedness mean?

Sharon said...

It means she is drunk on her love for him, not on alcohol. That she is obsessed and crazy with her love for him. Does this sound like some others we know, maybe even someone we see when we look in the mirror???

Rita said...

OK! Sharon it does sound like that,
hope you are ok. Is it May or June
yet?

Sharon said...

Not yet, but I got my director's cut of Terminator Salvation in the mail today, so I've got something to keep my attention for a bit. Christian Bale is no AS, but he's not bad.

I also had Combat Jack, ep 4 from GK in today while I was doing other stuff. Just stop and watch the AS parts. Lots of no shirt parts in this ep. Sigh!

Will have Vampire Diaries Christmas
one of my grandchildren is getting that for me.

Sharon said...

I tried to watch VD again last night. It just seems too much like Gossip Girl (which I've never actually watched, to be honest) with vampires. I just can't seem to stay focused. The week of Dec 14 they are supposed to show all 10 episodes, 2 each night. I'll try again.

Did you watch Blood Ties?

I'm getting the complete Farscape series for Christmas.

Rita said...

No i have not seen Blood Ties, is it good?Sorry Terminator Salvation is not my thing,have you seen Orphan
yet if you have not you need to.

Stay at Vamp Diaries sharon- watch the marathon and go from e-p 1 -4 then it starts to pick up and the levels begin with their past vamp friends /makers and the real history of vamps in the town is only now starting ...

i think you'll like it ...

stick with it ....

Sharon said...

OK, Dallas, I'll try again during the marathon. But remember, I know where to find you! Well, sort of.

Rita, Terminator Salvation was great and introducing a new actor, Sam Worthington. He pretty much stole the show from Christian Bale, IMO. He's in Avatar also, opening today. And is the star of Clash of the Titans in March. Looks great!

What's Orphan about?

Rita said...

A family wanting to adopt a child and
things begin to happen all i am going to say.Dallas can't wait till
the 14th.How is the sonw,and you to
Sharon?Going to eat see you all later.

Sharon said...

And the orphan turns out to be a vampire or werewolf or demon? I don't do mushy and crying and stuff.

Rita said...

NO!has not one thing to do with vampires or weres it is just people.

" Dallas " said...

Haha- you can find me right here !

Just give it more of a chance all of us that have watched it are now hooked- i think you will be too

Rita said...

Sharon please just the series starting the 14th.It really is a good show,and i really like the part
that i have read to.

Sharon said...

Rita, you can find Blood Ties on both Hulu.com and MyLifetime.com and watch them for free. There are only 2 seasons and they cost about $20 each on Amazon. Let me know if you see this and if not, I'll leave it again in a later posting.
