Wash ,'Serenity'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Given the number of Best Picture noms and the noms themselves, I decided against a themed menu. And given my apartment, I need to serve something easy to eat or that can be served in one bowl. Right now, I'm leaning towards either Cioppino, or tamales.
ETA:
Almond Baklava with Rosé Water
I'm going to assume that this is a typo and that the good folks at epicurious know the difference between rosé and rose.
That's an impressive hotel-inspired continental breakfast.

And it includes one of the recipes from my "easy favorites" list, namely, "Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Salmon and Lemon Cream"--they are yum!!
Which reminds me, I have an Oscar party Evite to respond to.
A Serious Manwich
OMG, that's briliant.

Was it the cioppino, or the tamales?

Yes. Among other things.
Just got back from seeing the live-action shorts. Not as fun as the animated shorts (although "Instead of Abracadabra" was very funny), but pretty darn good. I think if I were voting I might pick that, or "Miracle Fish."
The Road: man, what a hard movie to watch. Bleak, devestating, beautiful, hard. It was like the black version of Firefly with Reavers and surviving vs. living and I kept expecting the reavers to win, the fear was so palpable.
I wouldn't call it a good movie, but it was certainly an experience.
