Pirates and eggplant

[abka]

We had a fairly nice weekend. Friday night Denis worked (surprise, surprise), but Emma and I went and saw Pirates of the Carribean (on Andrew's recommendation). It was a fabulous pirate movie, I really enjoyed it. We even sat through the credits for the final monkey scene. Saturday we both worked and then I went to a WCMA opening for Nicole Cohen's "Ma Vie en Rose". The opening was nice, but I didn't stay too long. The show looks great! Sunday we were going to work, but decided we needed a day off so just hung out at home. We made eggplant parmagana together which was more of a production than I originally planned. I started out cooking myself, but had to recruit Denis and he ended up doing most of the actual cooking while I washed a mountain of dishes. It took a while, but the result was yummy. Then he even spent time with me while I worked on my Croatian (I'm a little behind). It helps tremendously to hear someone pronounce the words correctly. It was so nice to study together (ok I was studying, he was teaching/reading/repeating). Unfortuantely another weeked spent procrastinating about Fulbright/grad. school stuff (although Croatian should count). I'm going to at least start contacting more people this week.

THERE'S AN EXTRA MONKEY SCENE!?!?!?!?

Yep, that's the scene that's at the end of the credits if you wait. But I shall say no more. ;-)

SO curious. But I really did want to see it again anyways ;-).

Yes, Erin hinted about it in her comments to your post about seeing the movie, that's why we waited for it. You sort of lose track of the monkey towards the end of the movie, but the filmmakers did not forget him.
