Music review: The Nutcracker Maestro classics

THE NUTCRACKER Maestro Classics CD/MP3 Stories in Music My first trip to The Nutcracker was as a child. And I have been enchanted ever since. The holidays are not the holidays without Tchaikovsky’s masterpiece either on stage or playing in a room. I started ballet when I was five years old and when I came home with bloody toes from being “en pointe” I hated my parents for putting me through the torture of lessons. And then as I grew older, I was lucky enough to experience The Nutcracker ... continue reading...

And the water doesn’t taste good in plastic bottles. JUST WATER has found a way ... continue reading...

Blu-ray review: Walt Disney Short Films Collection

Walt Disney Short Films Collection I love film in all shapes and sizes. Today I received the new Disney Short Films Collection. You do not know how psyched I am. The Disney shorts are half the reason that I go to the theatrical releases of the Disney films even the ones I’m not thrilled about. The feature tie-INS I’m not that big on, however I really love things like Paperman, Feast and The Little Match Girl. What I really love about these is that they push the form and show passion for the ... continue reading...
