My interview, my first 3D movie, plus new chocolate!

Thanks to Shai Coggins for interviewing me on her site ShaiCoggins.com today as part of her Inspiration Café series. I've wanted to meet Shai for a long time; she's one of those multi-talented types, always full of creative energy. She lives in Australia but hopefully she'll come visit Toronto one of these days.

Other news:

I've updated Will Write For Chocolate.

And last night, Jeff and I went to see Bolt with our nieces. It was my first 3D movie ever. I knew 3D movies were around, but always figured they were the kind where you donned red and blue paper goggles -- the effect is interesting but not enough to draw me to a movie.

Bolt, on the other hand, was a wonderful movie on its own (I got all weepy at the end, I confess), and the 3D effects were MUCH more impressive than I expected. Whoa. You have to wear special glasses to get the 3D effect; I was worried about how I'd do this over my regular glasses, but it was no problem.

My favourite character in the movie was the hamster. :-)

3-D movies are rather fun. In recent years John and I have seen "Nightmare Before Christmas" in 3-D as well as the fifth Harry Potter movie.

The hamster was our favorite too. :)
The boys have picked up some quotes from the hamster to add to the family vernacular:
"Let it begin!!"
"I'll get my ball..."
etc. Guess you have to be there to properly appreciate the perfect imitations...

Rand and I saw Bolt last weekend (though not in 3D) and loved it as well. (I got weepy at the end too!)

Thanks again for the interview, Debbie! And I'm looking forward to watching Bolt when it gets here in Oz.
