We recently watched the movie Certified Copy. Pentti hated it because it was a foreign film and because it was philosophical with very little action. It wasn't one of my favourite movies of all time, but I did enjoy it. In fact, I think I enjoyed it even more when it was over...but not for the reasons you may think. I wasn't relieved that it was over, just that it was one of those movies which left me thinking. About art and forgery and reality and marriage and expectations and perceptions and communication. I also really like Juliette Binoche.
One of the lines from the movie which I found interesting: "your perception of someone can change the value of that person".

In case anyone hasn't seen me in my 8 months of pregnant splendour...here's a picture with two of my sister in laws, taken at my sister's wedding.

I made a cheesecake for my sister in law's birthday. It turned out perfect. In the process I discovered that all the ingredients really do need to be at room temperature, otherwise the texture ends up a bit grainy (like last time). This time=perfection!!
