Les Miserables

Watching this movie excited me!


It had  most of the things in life that inspire me.  Music, a story real to life and a message of GRACE and hope.


An excellent cast!

Russell Crowe
as
Inspector
Javert

   Russell Crowe, believe it or not he sang! Good at it to!


 




Amanda Seyfried
as
Cosette

Amanda Seyfried- of  Mamma Mia fame.


       and


Anne Hathaway
as
Fantine

 Anne Hathaway
 This lady  has an extraordinary voice!

The message of the story:

  

Life is full of hardship and cruelty and if we, allow it, it will destroy our dreams. 

 

 

BUT

 

 Life can be worth living if you experience a rarity like  GRACE.

 

GRACE can be experienced through forgiveness, love and kind acts of others.

 

BUT

 

GRACE,IS NOT GRACE ,UNLESS THE RECEIVER IS NOT TOTALLY UNDESERVING OF IT.



 

This is beautifully portrade in this musical.

 

 

Russell Crowe, as Inspector Javert, portrays the harshness and finality of the law. 

Breaking the law means death!

  SO

 

What happens if the man of the law himself, receives Grace?  I'll keep you guessing.......

 

This musical inspiration will make you think and be a pleasure to the ear.

 

Have a look and let me know if and what inspired you.

So,
 
Hubby comes home with this veggie.  Had no clue what it was or how to cook it!

It looks and smells like Broccoli or cauliflower.  A pretty looking veg, as you can see.  



Pressed for time I cooked it as I always do my Broccoli:

1. Rinse and put in a glass bowel with lid in microwave. 5-6 minutes on High
