"I like to move it move it"

MOVIE REVIEW:

If you are planning to see the movie "Beverly Hills Chihuahua", I have good news. There is a much better option! "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" is full of animals with a sense of humor. You will leave the theatre laughing.
"Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" is about Alex, Marty, Gloria, and Melman leave Madagascar hoping to return to New York, when they crash land in Africa. The four find that this is the place where they belong.
With funny lines like:
Marty: it's not crackalackin'?
Alex: No, it's sorta lackin' in the crackin'
and lines like:
"I'm a lady, who of you is attracted to me!"
"Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" won't be dissapointing.

The Cheesecake Factory

On Friday, Mom and Dad and I went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner. It was wayyyyyyy crowded, and it was pretty noisy. We had this appetizer that Carla recommended, these pancakes with mexican food ontop. They were so DELICIOUS! We gobbled them right up and had no room for dinner, but we had room for cheesecake! Mom and Dad decided that the Cheesecake Factory is a place where you should get an appetizer and dessert, and just skip dinner.

p.s. the next time you go to the cheesecake factory, try the peanut butter cup fudge ripple cheesecake. it is sssssssoooooo good!

The Biggest Loser

My Mom and I have a favorite show that we watch every week, The Biggest Loser. This new season has the most records, including: the oldest person to ever be on the show, at 63 years old; the youngest person to ever be on the show, at 18 years old; the biggest woman to ever be on the show, weighing 370 pounds; and the biggest person to EVER be on the biggest loser, weighing 454 pounds!!!!!
The contestants have been at the ranch for three weeks. The first week, one person from every team went home, so one person from the team is competing at home, and the other at the ranch. The brown team won the weigh-in the first week, so both of them stayed at the ranch, and the black team won immunity, so both of them stayed at the ranch. Dan, the heaviest contestant, lost 30 pound the first week.
The second week, Jerry, the oldest contestant and Mom and I's favorite, lost the least amount of weight, sending him below the yellow line and up for elimination. Dan, the heaviest contestant and Mom and I's other favorite, got a one pound penalty for losing the challenge, and fell below the yellow line. In the end, Jerry went home.
The third week, there was a temptation. In this temptation, the team who ate the most calories would take their trainer and both teammates would exercise together with the trainer. Jolle, everyones least favorite, and her partner Carla, won the challenge because Carla ate 2,700 calories. At the weigh-in, Jolle and Damien fell below the yellow line. When Mom and I were sure Jolle would go home, it was actually Damien who went home.
Next week, whoever is still left at the ranch can bring their partner back.

The Start of This Blog

On Sunday afternoon, Heather comes over and usually talks about her blog. She says stuff like, "Oh, Emily said the funniest thing about her class on her blog," or something like, "Liz put a picture of Lilly on her blog."
Heather told Mom that she should write a blog, to which Mom replied, "The only thing I write is checks."
So Heather said, "Kim, you should write a blog."
So here I am, writing a blog, and wondering why someone would write a check these days.
