The kids and I watched Labyrinth tonight while I exercised. It was kind of refreshing to see a movie with good old fashioned puppet special effects instead of everything CGI. It was a pretty good flick, though it did have quite the 80's vibe. One of the puppet goblins sounded a little like Miss Piggy, which is always fun. I can't ever watch The Empire Strikes Back without visualizing Miss Piggy when Yoda speaks. I keep expecting for the little Jedi Master to say, "moi?"
Lisette forgot to eat, so when it was over she cried because she hadn't eaten anything. Melinda made vegetarian jambalaya, but that's not what Lisette wanted; she had her heart set on rosemary potatoes.
Saffron came over to comfort Lisette and gave her a big hug. She snuggled up in Lisette's arms and patted her on the back. Then occasionally Saffron would look her in the face, smile, and caress her cheek. Kids always have their little fights, but it's lovely to see them care for each other.
After a little slicing of yukon gold potatoes, a little olive oil and fresh rosemary in pan, and Lisette is good as new. Saffron's hugs didn't hurt, either.
