Groundhog Day Marathon on Encore

For those that don’t know it tomorrow is Groundhog Day here in the United States (and according to Wikipedia in Canada as well).  Growing up, this was my friend Brian’s favorite holiday.  Groundhog Day is, according to legend, the indicator of how long winter will last.  When the groundhog leaves his burrow that morning, if he does not see his shadow (usually because it is cloudy and overcast) then he will continue on his way and that signifies that winter will end soon.  However, if it’s a sunny day and the groundhog “sees his shadow” then he will retreat back into the burrow and we will have six more weeks of winter.

 

In celebration of Groundhog Day, Encore (a US premium television station owned by Starz) will be playing24 hours of Groundhog Day starring Bill Murray.  (Well it works out to 24 and ½ hours but I’ll let that slide).  Bill Murray plays Phil Connors, an egocentric Pittsburgh TV weatherman who, during a hated assignment covering the annual Groundhog Day event in Punxsutawney, finds himself repeating the same day over and over again. After indulging in hedonism and numerous suicide attempts, he begins to reexamine his life and priorities.

The first time I watched Groundhog Day I didn’t really like it, and then I watched it again and enjoyed it.  I think it is one of those movies that takes repeated viewings to understand some of the nuances and enjoy it.  It’s also fun to try and figure out how long Phil (Bill Murray) was stuck living the same day over and over again (how long it took him to get the gist of his gift, how long it would take to master some of the things he did, etc). 

 

Groundhog Day begins airing at Midnight Eastern and Pacific so be sure to try and catch at least one showing before the day is over.

 

Happy Tuesday and Happy (almost) Groundhog Day!

Hallmark Channel's Countdown to Valentine's Day

[NOTE: The following article is a press release issued by The Hallmark Channel. Any errors, typos, etc. are attributed to the original author. The release is reproduced solely for the distribution of the enclosed information.]

NOT THE ROMANTIC INTERLUDE ONE EXPECTS

HALLMARK CHANNEL KICKS OFF "COUNTDOWN TO VALENTINE'S DAY" WITH "A VALENTINE'S DATE," A STAR-STUDDED HALLMARK CHANNEL ORIGINAL MOVIE WORLD PREMIERE FEBRUARY 4

Elisa Donovan ("In Gayle We Trust"), Brad Rowe ("General Hospital"), Tom Skerritt ("Brothers & Sisters"), John Schneider ("Desperate Housewives," "Hot in Cleveland"), Tracey Gold ("Growing Pains") and Fred Willard ("Modern Family," "Accidentally in Love") star in "A Valentine's Date," a Hallmark Channel Original Movie World Premiere, Friday, February 4 (9 p.m. ET/PT, 8c). "A Valentine's Date" is the lead-off Original Movie in Hallmark Channel's 'Countdown to Valentine's Day' campaign, which kicks off February 1 and runs through Valentine's Day. Other Hallmark Channel Original Movie World Premieres for the 2011 'Countdown to Valentine's Day' include: "Smooch," starring Kellie Martin, Kiernan Shipka and Simon Kassianides, Saturday, February 5 (9 p.m. ET/PT, 8c) and "Accidentally in Love," starring Jennie Garth, Ethan Erickson, Marilu Henner and Fred Willard, written by Garth's husband Peter Facinelli ("Nurse Jackie," "Twilight"), Saturday, February 12 (9 p.m. ET/PT, 8C).

February 14 is a day of hearts and flowers and sweet sentiments, unless you are Laura Conners and Dylan Hackett, former sweethearts and spouses on the verge of divorce. Laura, a busy bank executive has moved her daughter Kelsey to New York to restart their lives after separating from her husband and childhood sweetheart Dylan, who still resides in Texas. Laura's been so immersed in her job, she has conveniently forgotten to sign the divorce papers buried at the bottom of her purse. Since Laura and Kelsey moved to New York six years ago, Dylan has seen his daughter on a mere handful of occasions. He's had enough. Dylan sues Laura for custody, forcing her to return to Texas. At the hearing, the pair begin bickering, forcing a Texas State Family Court Judge to order a cooling off period to give Dylan and Laura a chance to think about what's most important - Kelsey. The judge re-sets the custody hearing for February 14. Now Laura, Dylan and Kelsey have a Valentine's date to remember what made them a loving family, so that everyone's heart can be happy once more.

"A Valentine's Date" is executive produced by Barry Barnholtz, Zelma Kiwi and Jeffrey Schenck, produced by Michael Feifer and co-produced by Peter Sullivan. The movie is based on original material by Jeffrey Schenck and Peter Sullivan. "A Valentine's Date" is directed by Michael Feifer from a screenplay by Michael Feifer and Peter Sullivan. Music by Andres Boulton.

Year End Movie Marathon

Movies and books have always been my preferred methods of escape.  No matter how silly or banal they may be I tend to love the experience of both mediums.  Because I am such a night owl I stay up most nights watching or re-watching movies or reading books.  Any given week I have read several books and have watched three or four times as many movies. 

 

I like to end my year watching the same certain flicks and sometimes choose to watch movie marathons on different channels like Lifetime Movie Network.  A chick flick cheese fest if you will.  I’m not sure what movies will be in my line up for this year, I know that one film that I have been in the mood to watch (okay, re-watch) is When Harry Met Sally.  I haven’t watched it in a really long time.  Usually if I am in the mood for a Meg Ryan film it is You’ve Got Mail or Sleepless in Seattle. 

 

This year I’m just not sure what I’m in the mood for, something from my DVD stash, something from Netflix, something that is scheduled on television?  I probably should look to see what is scheduled on TV but I just don’t know what I’m watching yet.

 

Any suggestions?

Christmas, Christmas, Time is Here

Christmas Day was very pleasant.

 

I wrote that I would share some of the recipes and goodies that I made up for all of us to snack on throughout Christmas Day.  It was nice to have everything ready to go and all I had to do was put things into and onto the serving dishes once we were ready to eat.

 

Our main sustenance consisted of spinach dip and shrimp cocktail.  Then there was a bevy of desserts including mini cherry cheesecakes, oatmeal raisin cookies, snicker doodles, and triple chocolate chip cookies (Daddy made all three types of cookies, he’s turning into quite the little baker).

 

Here are some of the recipes:

Mini Cherry Cheesecakes

2 pkgs. (8oz.) cream cheese, softened to room temperature

3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 Tbsp vanilla
1 Tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 package vanilla wafer cookies (you won’t use the entire box)
1 can cherry pie filling

In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the cream cheese and sugar until smooth, scraping down the sides frequently. Add eggs one at a time and mix. Finally, add vanilla and lemon juice, and mix until just blended. 

 

Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. Cool cheesecakes completely. 

 

Garnish with cherries from canned cherry pie filling.  

 

Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Makes about 48 mini cheesecakes.

 

Note: I made some with the cookies and some without.  If you omit the vanilla wafers then you get a more cheesecake but mine came out a little watery.  The ones with the wafers are perfect.

Spinach Dip

1 cup mayonnaise

1 (16 ounce) container sour cream

1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained

1 package onion or leek dry soup mix

1 (1 pound) loaf round sourdough bread

 

Mix the sour cream, mayo, soup mix and spinach together.  Place in refrigerator to set up.

 

Just before you are ready to serve ( I usually do this about an hour or so before to allow the edges of the bread to harden just a bit) cut of the top of the bread loaf, tear it into pieces and scoop out the bread from the middle of the loaf to create a bowl.

 

Take spinach dip mixture from the fridge and scoop it into the bread bowl.

 

Shrimp Cocktail Sauce

1 cup ketchup

3 Tablespoons prepared horseradish

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Few splashes of hot sauce (I use Tabasco)

 

Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and chill in refrigerator until ready to serve.

 

Enjoy!

Rum Balls Revisited

Since it is the holiday season I decided that I would share, or rather re-share, another favorite holiday cookie recipe.  It is also another pretty simple recipe but eat at your own risk.  I originally shared this recipe May of 2008 for a Swashbuckling Pirate Blog Party because I thought it was fitting since it was for Rum Balls and it dealt with pirates.

You do have to be careful though, since they are made with alcohol, they can affect you.  I remember the first time Mommy had them; she took them to work and shared them with a co-worker.  They were both florists and spent the entire shift laughing and carrying on and having a grand old time making arrangements and eating rum balls.  Later in the day, after she was home, Mommy was recalling how great her day was and how the shift just flew by and they both had so much fun. 

 

Baby Boy and I both remarked how that was because they were both tipsy.  Mommy adamantly denied being sloshed; she NEVER drank so how could she have been even the slightest bit buzzed.  I asked her what she had while she was at work and she remarked that the only thing they had been the cookies.  So I further questioned “and what kind of cookies were they?”

 

She responded that they were Rum Balls as if it were commonplace.  I pressed on and asked her what she thought was in the cookie.  She said that she didn’t know.  I then asked if she thought that maybe, quite possibly, one of the ingredients would be rum, since that is not only in the name of the cookie but she was the one who actually purchase the bottle of rum.  Needless to say she never took Rum Balls to work again and decided to limit how many she had during any one time.

Rum Balls - makes 4 dozen

Ingredients:

• 2 (12 ounce) packages vanilla wafers, crushed
• 3 cups chopped nuts (walnuts & pecans work well and almonds are great too)
• 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
• 1/2 cup cocoa
• 1 cup light rum
• 1/4 cup and 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
• 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Instructions:

• In a large bowl, combine vanilla wafer crumbs, chopped nuts, 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, and cocoa. Mix in rum and corn syrup. Shape dough into 1 inch balls; roll in confectioners' sugar or cocoa.

Store rum balls in an airtight container for 2 to 3 days to develop flavor. Roll them again in confectioners' sugar, cocoa, or crushed nuts before serving.

Surprise Sugar Cookies

A couple of year’s ago I shared about a party that Mommy and I catered.  It was for her friend Marilyn and was our first catering job and a large event at that.  Today I wanted to share one of the cookie recipes we had at that party that was a huge hit.  They are called Surprise Sugar cookies.  The surprise is a chocolate mint embedded between two sugar cookies so you think that you are just getting a massive sugar cookie but when you bite into it, surprise, there’s a chocolate mint center.  They are wonderfully yummy and great whether you make them from scratch or go the super easy route with ready made items, I’ll share both ways with you.

Surprise Sugar Cookies

Ingredients:

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup butter, softened

1 1/2 cups white sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Chocolate mints (I like Andes)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a small bowl mix flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.

 

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients.

 

Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls, slightly flatten the ball, place a mint (or part of a mint depending on the size of your cookie, then put another slightly flattened piece of dough on top.  Make sure the edges are sealed (pressed together) then place the cookie “sandwich” onto an ungreased cookie sheet.  I like to bake on parchment paper because I don’t have a silicone baking sheet yet.

 

Bake 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Let stand on cookie sheet two minutes before removing to cool on wire racks.

 

Super Easy Surprise Sugar Cookies

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Purchase your favorite sugar cookie dough, typically an 18 ounce roll, slice into ¼ inch disks. 

Package of chocolate mint wafers.

 

Sandwich a chocolate mint between two slices of cut sugar cookie dough.  Make sure all edges are sealed and place on cookie sheet.

 

Bake 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Let stand on cookie sheet two minutes before removing to cool on wire racks.

 

Enjoy!

Flat Screen TV Stands for Christmas?

Looking at flat screen TV stands is where my online Christmas shopping begins.

Baby Boy, Mommy and I all chipped in and purchased a flat screen TV a while ago, now he just needs a flat screen TV stand so that it will look nicer in the living room.  (The flat screen TV is currently house in the old entertainment center but it needs a flat screen TV stand all its own.)

 

Recently I was asked to do a review for CSN Stores, which is pretty cool seeing that I get to pick out a product and then do a review.  So since I’m already checking out various gifts online for my friends and family to finish out my Christmas list why not start there.

Stay tuned to see what I picked and for the upcoming review.

I’m sure my dad would like one of their flat screen TV stands.  What about you?

Hallmark Channel's Countdown to Christmas

Hallmark Channel got an early start to their showing of holiday movies and specials as they have been showing Christmas movies for the past week. 

Although I usually can’t stand Christmas music to be played before Thanksgiving, Christmas movies are another story… I can watch them any time of the year so I was ready when Hallmark Channel started their 24 hours programming last Saturday.

Here is Hallmark Channel’s complete schedule of holiday movies and specials leading up to Christmas.  If there is a link it will take you to the movie’s homepage at Hallmark Channel where you can find additional information like when it will air again, downloads, pictures, video, etc.
