I hope everyone had a great weekend! One of the things I really enjoyed doing last Saturday was sitting back with my sister, my best friend, and watching a really fabulous DVD which movie we both had gone to see in the cinema late last year, Stardust.
I thought I'd blog about this movie just in case you mightn't have seen it yet ~ go get it, it's great!
We went to the movies to see it not knowing if we'd like it or not ~ it sounded like something we'd like, but we just hoped for the best. It really was one of those excellent times where we loved it much more than we expected! It has it all; really cute leading man, princes and a princess, beautiful wicked witch (Michelle Pfeiffer), magic, romance, unicorns, funny ghosts and quite a few laughs! Keep an eye out for Billy ~ we loved him!
You can see a trailer of the movie here.
I think this is going to be one of my favourite movies ever! If you love movies like the Princess Bride, which is also one of my favourites, I think you will love this as well. Go rent it or buy it, it's really worth it!
What a beautiful blog. Old houses are a passion with me and yours is stunning. I look forward to visiting often.

I absolutely loved that movie! I'm with you. I wasn't sure in the beginning if I'd like it, but you must see it! Of course, the special effects are fabulous! By the way, welcome. I'm Kitty, Heather's Mom from Pretty Petals. Love your website...

Oh yes! My Dear Hubby and I just saw this on DVD...and we thought the same thing....that we would probably like it but we weren't sure. We both really liked it so I recommend it, too.
I found your blog via Natasha Burns' site...your blog is very pretty, too!

Welcome to blogland!! I get so swept up in other peoples' blogs that I go weeks sometimes without updating mine, but it is so very much fun. I will definately be adding your blog to my regular visits! Your sweet kitties are wonderful and absolutely stunning and your bedroom - absolutely scrumptious!! I also love the shelf in "love these things in my home" that looks like vintage lace with fabrics piled and other fun stuff. Love it!!
Thanks for sharing!
