...some of my favorite things...
It's my first weekend home for weeks...and i did some of my favorite activities....
First I went to the Farmer's market at UCI Saturday morning. I'm a sucker for farmer's markets and it was my first time going to this one. The size was decent, however it's sad that this is the biggest one in OC.
I discovered a new fruit!!! To me at least...Chinese Dates a.k.a. jujubees. Very interesting, red, wrinkly things...I bought some for the adventure. =)
I had lunch with Philip and Dora at Rutabegorz and then we went hiking with Amy down in Mission Viejo. What a beautiful spring day!!!
This afternoon I watched 
. Very interesting and i love the subtle messages. This film was the 2006 Best Foreign Film Academy Award winner*. Very beautiful and unique cinematography. Here is a short synopsis from the movie website:
Set amidst the sprawling Johannesburg township of Soweto - where survival is the primary objective - TSOTSI traces six days in the life of a ruthless young gang leader who ends up caring for a baby accidentally kidnapped during a car-jacking.
*I have to note that I was very upset that my first choice, Paradise Now, did not win. THAT is an awesome movie and I will watch with with anyone who wants to see it with me. * =)

I hate to say it, but those Chinese dates look like hearts. It's a little shocking. :) How do they taste?
Actually...I don't really like them. I feel bad, but oh well, at least I could say I tried. They're still sitting in my fridge!
Hey allison....did you ever see Paradise Now??? So good. I think everyone-especially MESP alumni-should see it. =)
I haven't seen it, but I just looked at the website and now I very much want to see it . . . perhaps this weekend. I'll let you know once I do!
