Film Review: Much Ado About Nothing, Shakespearean Play Filmed by Director Kenneth Branagh
Mira, Have you read "In Search of Shakespeare" by medieval specialist Michael Wood or seen the equivalent audio-visual format from the PBS program? It's an enthralling coverage of best guesses and known facts.

Mom's Peach Pie Recipe for Thanksgiving
Publish recipes? Thank you but I deserve no such praise. I am a historian who loves cooking. At our local Italian place near here the two owners serve the usual pizza, pasta, rice dishes but also their grandmother's handwritten Italian foods. ...

Julie & Julia - From Blog to Movie
Veronica, I watched it at the cinema and loved Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. I didn't pay a lot of attention to the subplots. It's probably worth watching again, as you say.
Candy: Did they pay the blogger money in order to use the idea in the ...

Julie & Julia - From Blog to Movie
MIra yes it is true and very close to the facts too I believe. Watch it and laugh; watch it and weep; watch it and be angered at the treatment of women and left wingers. But watch it. Decide for yourself. It is much deeper on many levels than ...

Magna Carta, the facts, myths and legends briefly
Thank you Lybrah for your kind words of encouragement. Time has a way of covering over facts in a romanticised way and I just felt the need to set the record straight and make Magna Carta more factually correct.

The Martha Stewart Show and My Cuisinart Panini Grill
I don't know if audience members are paid. The shows that I've been to were all free to enter and sometimes we got a gift and sometimes not. I use the grill for steaks, burgers, fish, just about everything!

The Martha Stewart Show and My Cuisinart Panini Grill
I wonder how it's done here. I doubt the people in the audience are given gifts. Do you think they are paid instead? I mean, are there shows in the US where people are paid instead of given gifts?
Like that panini grill, by the way. I've been ...

Julie & Julia - From Blog to Movie
I love this film and have it on DVD. I watched it first as a comedy but watching it and re watching over the months, I see that the film has a huge amount of sadness mingled in with it. The acting is superbly done with immense sensitivity. The ...
