Let's Talk About Malèna

 

In Sicily, there lived a stunningly beautiful woman named Malèna. She was married, but her husband was away fighting in the war, so she lived alone. Because of her beauty and solitary life, all the men in town had their eyes on her, and their wives were jealous of her because of it. Malèna was the most desired young woman in the entire town.

A young boy named Renato became obsessed with her. He would spy on her at home and secretly follow her around whenever she went out.

Eventually, Malèna got heartbreaking news: her husband had lost his life in the war. After a while, her father was also killed by the Allies in Sicily. Malèna was left completely alone in a harsh, judgmental society.

What happens to her after that is something you’ll have to see yourself by watching the movie.

Malèna is absolutely worth watching. It’s one of the most captivating movies I’ve ever seen. The world-famous actress and model Monica Bellucci stars in the lead role. She’s one of the most beautiful women in the world, and I think casting her was the perfect choice—she truly brings the character to life.

My Christmas Family Tree

Image
I recently watched the movie My Christmas Family Tree. It was an emotional movie with touching episodes.  A young lady named Vanessa Hall, who had no family, took a DNA test and found her biological father. She contacted him and traveled to her biological father, Richard, and his family's home for Christmas. I loved how Richard and his wife welcomed Vanessa. During the holiday, the DNA testing company called and told her they made a mistake and mixed up her results with another one from Vanessa Hall. She got upset with this news. I thought the story ended here, but no. The story had a positive and surprising ending. I am not going to tell you the ending because you can lose your interest in watching.  I enjoyed watching "My Christmas Family Tree," and I strongly recommend you watch this movie, as it is very interesting.

One of Those Random Buys That Worked Out

Image
Both sunglasses are from the South Korean brand Reclow. I came across them by chance while shopping and decided to buy them. The black pair is model F2189, with a total width of 140mm. The brown pair is model E025, and it’s 147mm wide. I bought them because I really liked the designs, and the prices were very reasonable since they were on sale. In general, Reclow products are quite affordable. Although the black sunglasses feel a bit tight on me, I still wear them. I’m glad I bought both pairs—they suit me well, and the materials don’t look cheap. Plus, they offer UV protection. Reclow has a wide range of styles, and I like their overall design aesthetic, so I’m thinking about picking up a few more pairs. If you're looking for stylish yet budget-friendly sunglasses, they might be worth checking out.     Note: This is not a paid promotion, just a personal review.

Eggplant Roulette

Image
Ingredients: 2 eggplants 1 clove of garlic A handful of walnuts 2 teaspoons of mayonnaise Salt Vegetable oil      First, I peel the two sides of the eggplants.  Then I slice them at medium thickness. Because if you slice the eggplants thinly, they will break apart easily when fried.  But if you slice them thickly, it will be hard to roll them up at the end. I sprinkle two tablespoons of pink Himalayan salt and let them sit there for 30 minutes to get rid of bitterness. After 30 minutes, I rinse the eggplants and pat them dry with paper towels. Because if I fry them wet, the oil will splatter around.  Once they get dry, I put grapeseed oil in my hot pot and heat it. When it heats up completely, I put the eggplants into the pot and fry them on low heat. While the eggplants are frying, I grate the walnuts, crush the garlic, and mix them with two teaspoons of mayonnaise.   As the eggplants fry, they change color and become soft; you already know they ...
