Ronda's Randoms

1.  I started Project Deflate Ronda on Jan. 1st and have been doing pretty well so far.  Drumroll please..........I have lost 7.2 lbs (yes, the .2 counts).  I am so excited about my weight loss thus far.

The thing I really like about Weight Watchers is that you can eat whatever you want; you just have to make good decisions about how much of it you will eat.  Case in point, look at the delicious Tofu Bahn Mi sandwich I ate!  The avocado Boba smoothie was my daughter's, too many points for me.
Yep

2.  My friend recently went to Ronda Spain and brought me back these great pictures and Ronda souvenirs.  Who wants to pitch in some money, so I can go to Ronda Spain?
I love to cook; now I'm a gourmet!

3.  The Oscar nominations are out and here is my wish list so far:

Actor- Daniel Day-Lewis, Lincoln
Actress- Jennifer Lawrence, Silver Linings Playbook
Supporting Actor- Christoph Waltz
Supporting Actress- Anne Hathaway
Animated Feature- Wreck-It Ralph
Animated Short- Paperman
Best Picture- Silver Linings Playbook

Still want to see:  Amour, The Impossible and The Master.

I would be disappointed if the following won:

Actor- Denzel Washington
Actress- Anyone but Jennifer Lawrence
Supporting Actor- Tommy Lee Jones
Supporting Actress- Sally Field
Best Picture- Zero Dark Thirty, Beasts of the Southern Wild and Life of Pi (listed in the following order:  really disappointed, disappointed, a little disappointed)

3.  I finally saw Midnight in Paris (I'm right on top of things, right?) and I loved it.  I highly recommend it and was really caught off guard by how much I loved it.  It makes a great rental on a cold rainy day.  As they say in the movie, Paris is most beautiful in the rain.
