This was one of the Gilmore movie references that I watched and felt very clever for discovering. Then I watched an episode of Gilmore Girls and basically realized that I had probably chosen the old black and white film from a subliminal Gilmore Girl suggestion.

LORELAI: So typical. Kid grows up, goes to a fancy school, becomes a snob and is suddenly ashamed of her mother. You totally Mildred Pierce-d me.

RORY: I did not Mildred Pierce you.

Mildred Pierce is both a movie and a novel. I’ve only seen the movie starring Joan Crawford. It’s about a mother daughter relationship enshrouded in a murder mystery. It’s definitely worth watching. Watch it so you can use Mildred Pierce as a verb.

In the mess that was season six I totally overlooked a few funny moments. One of them is in the “Friday Night’s Alright for Fighting” episode. Lorelei sees Rory and asks why she didn’t dress crazy like they agreed. Then there is this whole bit about Rory betraying Lorelei and Lorelei offering the scarf to Rory for confidence. I actually really liked the stripe scarf that Lorelei was wearing. I wouldn’t have noticed that the look was “crazier” than usual if she hadn’t of told me. I’ve been thinking of trying the dressing crazy idea with my mom but I’m pretty sure that I’m the only one who will show up with an ugly scarf. Any other takers out there?

Ok so this wasn’t a movie on the Gilmore list.  However, I like to think that if the show was still on it would have been mentioned.  It’s one of those shows that is so bad it’s good.  The kind that whenever anyone walks into my house I say “You have to watch it.  It’s the worst movie in the entire world.  No, I can’t watch it with you, I can’t take it anymore.” The worst movie I’ve ever seen hands down is:

Ripple Effect

It pretty much ensures that I will never attend or trust any of the small film festivals where it won awards. Whats the worst movie that the Gilmores never mentioned?

I always buy a large carton of eggs with the intention that I will eat more eggs. I guess it’s a weird goal but I’m still the of a generation that thought that eggs were good for you. Then they told us eggs were bad for you and now they are good for you in limited supply. I usually only like eggs if they are in brownies. So, my thinking is that if I don’t like something it is probably good for me. This ends up with me basically having 18 eggs that will expire or have expired.

Every once in awhile when I haul the eggs to the trash I just have this temptation to devil them and then go throw them at Jess’ car. It’s a good thing I don’t know a Jess. Yes, by the way I would put paprika on them too; it isn’t a deviled egg without it.
