I often tell people, there is no greater museum city in the world than Washington, DC and having done a lot of traveling, I am pretty sure of what I say. But my favorite art museum? It has to be the Met.    …

Board To Death Jason Schwartzman
If you have a dry sense of humor and a sense of the absurd, this show may be a real find for you.    Here's the plot. Jonathan, a struggling novelist with a single book under his belt, …

Musée Rodin
This museum is enchanting. The first time I went I was shocked, maybe because Paris is so full of good museums that its easy to miss this one. The garden is especially beautiful with lots of famous scuptures. …

The Rocky Horror Glee Show
I love Glee but I didn't enjoy this episode as much as usual. The story was all over the place. One minute they were putting it on, the next minute the show was "too adult." Why? Well the shortness of …

David Copperfield
If you were forced to read this book when you, and hated it, pick it up again. The characters will stay with you like old friends.

Corn on the cob
Fresh corn on the cob? What could possibly taste better?
posted a Quick Tip about Rachael Ray. October 09, 2010
Rachel Ray
Here's the thing about Rachel Ray, she's an amazing recipe writer. For someone who writes so fast, her recipes are original and almost always work.

Hi Robin!

I just wanted to let you know that I created the Political Memoirs badge at Cafe Libri (http://www.lunch.com/cafelibri/badges/Politi...moirs-22189-74-1-1.html). It's currently set up so that members need to review 3 books on the list to earn it. Let me know if you had other recommendations that should be on the badge list. :)
