This week, in our usual Amy Winehouse update, its all about the The Prisoner, The Blond, and The Burger.
“Love you handsome, gorgeous one” shouted the now blond Winehouse to her husband Blake Fielder-Civil in a London court where he had his hearing. Amy almost missed Blake’s court appearance, and arrived just five minutes to the end. To the reporters she only said: ” I am not talking to you.”
Then she was led out by Georgette Fielder-Civil, Blake’s mother, who gave her take on Winehouse condition by saying: “She’s fine, thank you.”
The good news is, that after this drama, instead of getting a drink, Amy went to one of her favorite places: McDonald’s. These are good news because if to judge by what she looks like in recent photos, a burger is exactly what she needs.
Ladies and Gentleman, and children of all ages, let me introduce to you, what is going to be one of the busiest weekends of the year at the box office. In the next few lines you will read about a heroic family, gourmet food, and one princess that won’t make it to the ball this time.
The Simpsons Movie: Since it was announced that there is going to be a Simpsons movie, I wrote so much about it, that other then saying that the plot of the movie is about President Schwarzenegger who wants to destroy Springfield, and about how the Simpsons save their town.
No Reservations: A chef’s life changes when her sister dies and she is left to take care of her niece. Cooking, love, and all the rest of the ingredients needed for a standard love story. Starring Catherine Zeta Jones and Aaron Eckhart who is known for his memorable roll in Thank You For Smoking.
I Know Who Killed Me: An amazing psychological thriller. No I’m just kidding… Lindsay Lohan plays a girl who wakes up in a hospital, and finds out everybody thinks she is someone else. Due to her recent stupidity, Lindsay will miss the premiere and maybe she should change the name of the movie to I Know Who Killed My Career.

This week’s peak is from the new Bourne movie: The Bourne Ultimatum. Have a great weekend!!!
I don’t usually write personal stuff on here, but I had to pat myself on the back today and I’d like to share why. As some of you know (and most should that read this site) my husband and I write here. We haven’t been married long and we come from different cultures (he’s Israeli, me American) but one thing we both enjoy is cooking for one another. As silly as this sounds, since we’ve been married, I’ve really, really wanted to prepare lunch for him, but since I’ve been told Israeli salad (chopped tomatoes and cucumbers with olive oil and a little salt) is only good fresh and I don’t have that time in the AM, I’ve been limited in my cooking repetoire. In short, I’ve never made him lunch during the week, even though I cook dinner a few nights a week.
So everyday when my husband picks me up from work and tells me he ate a Lean Cuisine for lunch I feel like a bad wife. This AM, I had time (gotta love night showers) so I got up and made us both something we’d enjoy. A pita with hummus (I finally found a brand i like since I can’t do Sabra.), tomatoes, and Emek cheese. All of the ingredients here are Israeli and the combination is die-to-for yummy. For dessert, I prepared for my husband a pita with chocolate spread. It’s simple, but does the trick in terms of providing the sweet touch.
A half hour ago my husband called to tell me how yummy his lunch was and I felt so happy. They say the way to a man’s heart is thru his belly. But I like to say the way to this gal’s heart is thru the belly of her husband.
We decided it was time here at Amaldo.Com to introduce a series of digital shorts. Our first one, aptly entitled A Typical Sunday Morning In Less Than One Minuteis a deliciously witty take on what an average Sunday morning routine entails. We hope it’ll make you laugh. We’re pretty sure we spared a few chuckles in the production of it.
I got to hand it to the guy. Donald Trump may not be the reliable, yet quirky businessman he’d like everyone to believe, but the man sure knows how to pimp himself for a piece of billboard. First he fights with Rosie O’Donnell, then being the busybody she is, Barbara Walters gets involved, and before you can say, “Joy Behar isn’t the only one who loathes Elizabeth Hasselbeck,” Trump is betting his luscious locks off to the fate of a wrestling match.
Trump’s hijinks i.e. the last-ditch pathetic attempts to gain some sort of attention/notoriety is playing itself out. Donald needs to know by now that no actually cares about business anymore. The economy sucks so we’d rather forget about money. And focus on food, dancing, and pretty shallow girls. Although we do find it very curious that billionaires like to shave each other’s heads (and who knows what else). The fact is maybe Trump isn’t quite ready to face the music yet. And maybe we’re not either because when it comes down to it, we really do want Umaga to win.
Palore is a free browser add-on that helps you find reviews about services in your area. It’s very simple, you look for a restaurant on Google or Yahoo, you also get reviews. But Palore does more than that, it recognizes phone numbers on the page, and allows you to call the place from your computer for free.I myself have been using Palore for a few months now, and other then the fact that it saves me money on calls from my cell, I don’t look for it all the time, and don’t need to dial… How lazy have I become? Did I mention you can call anyone in the country? You get 15 minuets a day, For free.
New York Times Restaurant critic Frank Bruni may be on Chodorow’s “Most Wanted” list (ironic, when you think about it) and subsequently banned from all 29 of his establishments for poor restaurant reviews, but that hasn’t stopped Bruni from serving up more deliciously subversive takes on Chodorow venues, namely The Hotel Gansevoort’s unappealing brunch offerings.Bruni recently went undercover in NYC hotels to unearth all that’s grimy and sublime in the realm of food.
Beware: These reviews aren’t of the high-end luxury living magazine material. Oh, wait. Who are we kidding? This is The New York Times! There’s nothing too counter-culture here.
Gridskipper had a suggestion to make Bruni’s hotel jaunt a bit juicier. That is, than last week’s Village Voiceinterview on steaks.
By far though, the most fun of the Bruni report, (other than this stunningly helpful graphic) is a new sport we call, “Bruni For the Straight Guy” wherein one seeks out the gayest double entendre from the tastemaker’s repertoire.Option A:
But the stranger in my room at the London NYC hotel on a recent night had my full attention, because he was doing something I wasn’t at all accustomed to. He was crawling across the floor and under the coffee table.
Option B:
The food will arrive at the most inopportune moment, e.g., when you’ve just decided to try on the odd leopard-print robe hanging in the bathroom at the Muse Hotel in Midtown.
We’re going to go with Option A which seems lifted straight out of a Craigslist Casual Encounters post, albeit a delicious well-written well-poached one.
I’d opt for Option B. It’s got that bold element of reality wrapped up in fiction with a twist of the absurd. Tart, but well worth the intake.
