Freezing sunny day today. Snow covered highway going north so I let Ryan take the 4-runner to school today. His car is so little!

I am reading "The Namesake" by Jhumpa Lahiri and I'm enjoying every minute of this lyrical story. The writing just flows. http://www.houghtonmifflinbooks.com/catalog/titledetail.cfm?textType=excerpt&titleNumber=681425 .

Last week I saw "Volver" at our local film circuit. http://www.sonyclassics.com/volver/. I really enjoyed this film about women, mothers, daughters and even though death was a theme that ran through this film, it was still enchanting and charming. I will need to see it again because with all sub-title movies, I miss the scenery and set decoration.

Also saw "Because I Said So" on Friday. A funny fluff movie. I'm such a huge Diane Keaton fan I have to see everything she does.
