Usually when I hear of Eastern European animation
or puppets I run screaming in the other direction
but I have to say that the animated version of
Peter and the Wolf they are showing on PBS is
excellent. This version is dark with glimpses of
humor and a different ending. It is a
Polish-British-Norwegian model stop action
animation production, took 5 years to make and
won the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film this
year. Here's a taste:
We're watching the 3rd season of Project Runway on DVD. It is the best reality TV show ever. And in our neighborhood it looks like a fashion academy has opened up. Here's some items featured in their front window. It's hard to see but the man's suit is on a female dress form. It still looks snazzy though.
And here's just some fashionable umbrellas seen a little further up the street:
More Beer reviews
I like wine from Anderson Valley in Sonoma County, CA so I was interested to see how they do with beer. Although this Hop Ottin' IPA is not my favorite Indian Pale Ale it is still quite good. The flavor is nice but the hops are a little too subtle. I would buy it again.
