Leave Her to Heaven.



So last night I watched Leave Her to Heaven, where Gene Tierney plays the young, wealthy Ellen Berent who meets the handsome writer Richard Harland (Cornel Wilde) by chance on a train. The two immediately fall madly in love with one another and marry soon after. They then move to Maine and take up residence in a small cabin by a lake so Richard can concentrate on writing but what began as a fairy tale quickly turns into a nightmare. I kind of knew the plot going in, but I hadn't been expecting Ellen to be that full of crazy! And when I say crazy what I really mean is psycho! Definitely kept me watching though.

Homemade is Best.





Swedish furniture and homeware brand IKEA have released this 140-page cookbook entitled Homemade is Best that is without any words. It is purely graphical with photos of ingredients laid out in a style inspired by Japanese minimalism, followed by photography of the completed cake. I really do think this is awesome, but I need exact measurements to make anything correctly. So if it had the actual recipe this would be the best cookbook I've ever seen!
