I Miss U all my Blog

Yummm! I made some cute little cupcakes last Tuesday for Alex to take to work and for some of my friends... They turned out really cute... Here are some pictures! Oh yeh, they were really DELISH, too!!
NOTE: PLEASE DON'T DROOL ON THE COMPUTER SCREEN! (hehehe)

Ahhhh, it's such a relief when things actually work... Okay, so I'm a happy camper now... and you guys are all still probably sleeping.. It's only 8:35 am on Sunday... Barbara, I know you're up by now so you my be the first person to read this today!!! Good morning to all and Happy Sunday. I am now the proud owner of 10G of space on blogger... That's a TON of space... and Yes, you can "run out" of space on Blogger and either have to open a new account and start a new blog, or opt out like I did to continue with the same blog and just pay for extra space... I went through about a gig of space in about a year and a month or two.. But, those of you who read my blog know that it is composed mostly of photos. So, I probably use space up more quickly than most of you out there with blogs. I also mostly use big size photos.. I use a Mac, Justin, so Windows isn't an option for me, thanks for the suggestion, though! I am sure others can benefit from it... and will.... to resize the photos they upload to blogger.
So now, without much further ado... I bring to you ... my new and improved, News From France... which is now stocked up with PLENTY of storage space... YAHOOOO.... oops.. I mean GOOOOOOGLE!!! Have a nice Sunday everyone!!!

just bought more space for my blog- The space actually goes to Picasa and gmail but the pictures you upload to Blogger are directly related to your Picasa account.. How many of you know this... If you go to your Picasa account, you will see all of your blogger pics stored there... This is a great backup system to stor photos... in case your computer crashes and you haven't done a recent back up... Anyhow.. I'm digressing.. This post is a test run to see if my extra storage space of 10 G ($20) is working yet or not.. I am having problems with it and writing back and for to support for help.. Keep your fingers crossed... If a picture appears with this post- then all is well and I will be a happy camper... If not, I'll be pissed and it means more emails to Google to figure out how to access the extra storage that has been bought and paid for since yesterday.. Here I go!

So I saw Iron Man yet again last weekend. I have to say that the more I watch this movie the more I am impressed with Jon Favreau's presence as a director and his ability to make such a crisp, clear and entertaining rendition of a comic book movie. I never knew much about Iron Man before the movie (even though I owned the action figure as a child), but the more I find out the more I am struck with how faithful those involved int he film stayed to the character.

I must say that Iron Man is one of my favorite films of the year so far, right up there with In Bruges. You can bet I will be buying the special edition of this film on DVD the day it is released and probably watching it that night.

By the way, if you think tthree viewings of one movie is bad just wait until The Dark Knight comes out. When Batman Begins came out I saw it at lest 4 times in the theatre and to this day it remains one of the first films I'll pop in if I'm bored and want to watch while I do something else.
