I’m sorry, I can’t help you there. Social networking still confuses me. All I know is this: If you bring yummy food, you’re bound to make many friends!
The other night, I trekked to a friend’s house to watch The Social Network. And I brought along… a Christmas recipe? 😕
Gingerbread Cookie Dough Balls
Didn’t I tell you I’d be eating these on the beach in July? You didn’t believe me?
Everyone loved the Gingerbread Balls.
And I loved the movie! (Where’s the facebook “like” button when ya need it?) I especially liked Jesse Eisenberg (who plays Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg) and his fast-paced talking. Plus, Eduardo? Really, really cute!
Supposedly, some of the story is fiction. But it was a good movie regardless: well-acted and defining of our generation. It’s hard to imagine that a few years ago, no one knew what facebook was!
Blog Updates:

Remember a time before the internet?
And do you remember–horror of horrors– dial up?
When you couldn’t be on the internet and the phone at the same time? When it took like 20 minutes just to get into your email account and hear, “You’ve got mail”? Now I get frustrated if it takes a minute to get into the internet!
It’s crazy how fast the world changes and upgrades. I don’t mind it though, I like to do things fast fast fast 🙂
OMG I LOVED that movie!!!!!! And I actually think about what life was like without the internet quite a bit… and how much slower everything seemed… I can’t IMAGINE doing college-level work without the ease of looking things up online…
And oh lordy.. the days of dialup. Who knew things could be so fast now?!
Isn’t it funny how our expectations shift? I miss the days before all of this technology, but at the same time I don’t! I love being able to communicate with people who are as crazykins as me at all times of the day/night, it makes life that much more enjoyable:) BUT it is good (and necessary!) to get away from all that every once in awhile:)
Haha, oh yes, I can channel memories of the olden days before internet (and, dare I say, computers being a normal accessory in a home)! I remember my brother getting on the internet, tying up the line, and me being left at basketball practice as a child for hours, because I couldn’t get through to my parents! Uuuugh. Dial-up. I shudder at the recollection…! 😉
Hahaha oh dial up. It took so long and the sound was so annoying!
ohh… I still havent seen that movie.
the gingerbread looks so-o-o swirly and pretty! XXO
Oh yum those gingerbread balls look amazing! I love the Social Network film too, just bought it on dvd last week!
I remember a time when there was no internet, and you had to call into a bulletin board system to exchange messages with people. When I went off to college my dad told me there was no reason I’d need an entire *1 GB* hard drive. Then a dinosaur crushed my car. 😀
I don’t know how I’d cope without the internet! Weirdly though, not long ago and thanks to the brilliance of BT, my internet was down. It took me a while to realise that it only worked when the phone was picked up – and that’s broadband! Very strange… 🙂
Lol dialup is the devil…I swear.
