Music Monday! pt. 10 What You Don't Know








This week's Music Monday is "What You Don't Know" by Jonatha Brooke. Some of you may recognize is as the theme song from "Dollhouse." I thought that it was so cool when I found this song. Joss Whedon only uses the last little bit of the song, but really it all goes along really well with the show.

Food Friday! pt. 6 Egg Drop Soup







The recipe that I used is vegetarian, but instead of vegetable stock, a meat stock can be used.

Ingredients:

6 cups vegetable stock
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
1 teaspoon soy sauce
Pinch finely ground white pepper
2 large eggs, lightly beaten

In a medium saucepan, bring the stock to a simmer. Add green onions (you can keep a few to add later as garnish). Add white pepper and soy sauce. Return to a bare simmer and cook for three minutes.

Stirring with a fork, gradually add the eggs in a slow, steady stream. Cook until the eggs are set, stirring to create shreds or ribbons of the eggs (1 minute).

Remove from heat. Ladle into bowls. Serve immediately.

Off the Railstone

DJ Paige Railstone

If you haven't heard of Paige Railstone, you should definitely check her out. I happened across her website online. I listened to a small portion of her upcoming album, OFF THE RAILSTONE. Not only is she an amazing DJ, but she is also a surprisingly good song writer. Her lyrics are absolutely amazing. If you want to learn more about her, check out her site.

Deathly Hallows Casting

As most of you know, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part I and II are currently being filmed. I have been looking at the cast list for all of the new characters and am pretty excited about the film. Here are some of the actors that will be joining the cast:




















Perhaps one of my favorite casting decisions is Bill Nighy as Rufus Scrimgeor. I am sure that you all recognize him, but in case you don't, you may remember him from Love Actually and Underworld.













Jamie Campbell Bell (RocknRolla, Sweeney Todd) will be taking on the role of Gellert Grindelwald.

















Ciaran Hinds (another favorite casting choice) will be taking on the role of Aberforth Dumbledore. You may recognize him from the television show, Rome and the recent film, Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day.


















Toby Regbo will be taking on the role of teenage Dumbledore.





















Rhys Ifans will be taking on the role of Xenophilius Lovegood (perfect casting in my opinion). He has been in a lot of different films, but every time I think of him, the very first role that comes to mind is the weird roommate from Notting Hill.



















David O'Hara will be taking on the role of Albert Runcorn. He has been in many films including the Matchmaker, Made and the Departed, but my favorite role of his is Stephen from Braveheart.





















Nick Moran (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels) will be taking on the role of Scabior.








Guy Henry will be taking on the role of Pius Thicknesse. You may remember him as the creepy Mr. Collins form Lost in Austen or as Cassius from the television show, Rome.

Back at School

I am so glad to be back at school right now. My dad and I arrived at my dorm this morning just a little before 8:00 am (Chicago time). After quite a while, I finally managed to get everything unpacked and put away. I never really feel settled until I get everything put away, so it is always the first thing that I do. Then I went to do a little grocery shopping. It feels so nice to be on my own again.

I am living in the same dorm, so everything seems really familiar, but just a little different. It is kind of weird. For instance, I am sleeping in the same room, but on the opposite side of it. My desk is in a different room. All of the furniture is moved around. And of course there is the fact that the place is clean. I never really noticed how well the dorms are cleaned during the summer, but this is certainly not the condition that we left it in.

That is all for now, but I will keep you posted to the goings on.
