Something New to Add to Friday Fundays

 


"The universe is always speaking to us. ... Sending us little messages, causing coincidences and serendipities, reminding us to stop, to look around, to believe in something else, something more." (Nancy Thayer)



Hello, my lovely friends!



    We all know that Fridays around here are dedicated to the pursuit of a good time—which, in my world, usually translates to me oversharing random facts about myself. I love the tradition, and I’m definitely not stopping, but I’ve decided Fridays are ripe for a little renovation. Why should I be the only one under the microscope while you sit back and enjoy the show?


    I’m pivoting to a "give and take" dynamic. You know those "get to know me" prompts that circulate online—the ones that range from deeply philosophical to "what’s the weirdest thing in your fridge"? I’m going to cherry-pick one question every Friday to answer myself, and then I’m turning the spotlight on you. Consider this your weekly invitation to spill some tea (or just some trivia) in the comments so we can find out new things about each other. 


    I know, I know—I’ve been a bit of a ghost lately, and not even the spooky, fun kind. Last year was a chaotic fever dream that sent this blog (and my sanity) into a tailspin, but I’m finally dusting off the keyboard. It’s time I stop playing hide-and-seek with my own interests and put myself back on the front burner where the real heat is. Consider this my official notice that I’m done being my own last priority.


    So, let’s go with the first question for this new idea for some Friday blogs, and it’s something simple...

What are your top 10 movies?


My top 10 movies:


1. It Happened One Night (1934)

 

2. Moulin Rouge! (2001)

3. Less Than Zero (1987)


4. Cabaret (1972)

5. Julie & Julia (2009)

6. One Way Passage (1932)

7. Rome Adventure (1962)

8. The Lost Boys (1987)

9. What Price Hollywood? (1932)


10. Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)

Thank you so much for stopping by.
I wish you a good morning, afternoon or evening wherever you are.
Until next time… Ciao!

  2. It's Kathy. I'm not sure I can name 10 - but my top movies are: Far and Away, Cabaret (I watched it on the plane flying back from visiting my husband in Japan), Bye Bye Birdie, Top Gun, The Highlander, Miracle on 34th Street with Natalie Wood. That's all that comes to mind. I love so many of the Hallmark movies - especially the ones with Dancing. I'll watch them over and over again.
