alice in wonderland

Last night A came over and cooked me delicious pasta (yay! "egg apples"), after which we went to see Alice in Wonderland. Totally beautiful and yet immediately forgettable, like a video clip.

I was disappointed that it wasn't as dark-and-Burton-y as I had hoped (perhaps I was looking for something a bit more like Neco z Alenky), although A blamed that on the Disney factor.

And what is up with ALL movie versions of Alice in Wonderland mixing up the two books? I suppose I should see it as a nice change that Hollywood isn't pre-judging the outcome of a film and laying the groundwork for the sequel in the first movie. But still, when there is ALREADY a sequel...

Nevertheless - narrative limitations aside - it was undeniably visually stunning (and I didn't even see the 3D version).

saturday

still nursing a flu i picked up in naples, i am laid up in bed today, watching sports night and knitting. but these are inspiring me to get downstairs and get my sew on.

also: i'm hungry. anyone feel like popping over with some chicken soup?

shiny. pretty. things.

geneva really is starting to get shiny for spring. some pretties spotted on my walk home from work.
