Obviously, there isn't a lot of planning that is involved in cozying up on the couch to take in a movie with Husband. But, I will tell you that it was imperative to me that Husband watch the movie, too. See, if there is to be any change in the culinary direction of our house–it has to pass through the House and the Senate (no, just kidding…just past Husband's taste test/pocketbook test).
First, Red Box didn't have Food, Inc. Which, really, is a bummer because I generally don't even watch movies that I can't get for $1/night. Red Box has spoiled me.
Blockbuster had the movie, but I didn't want to pay $5 for the rental…and actually have to go out and get the movie. I was already in my pajamas and halfway cuddled into the couch.
So, we settled on a $3.99 iTunes rental and popped our Orville Redenbacher (popcorn company started in my great home state of Indiana) on the stove.
…and the rest tomorrow.
Until then, don't forget about to join in on the Gussy Giveaway!!
