Food For Thought - Support America's Farmers

Image
This post was created in partnership with America's Farmers. All opinions are my own. My teens years were spent growing up, in a small farming community in Missouri. I was always amazed by the teenagers in my classes who would arrive with mud covered boots, the scent of fresh earth radiating from their denim jeans, or their need to take off of school during the fall harvest. I was a "city girl," who was transplanted, into the middle of nowhere. The idea of farming, the way of life, and the means to support a family via growing crops was just seemed so foreign to me!  I never quite understood that the young men in my classes, woke before dawn to turn on tractors before meeting the school bus. While I slept all snuggled in the warmth of my bed, the star of our basketball team would help her father with whatever was needed at their farm. School was very important, sports were fun, but farming never rested, and still had to find a place within their very active lives...

Happy Valentine's Day #MuppetMostWanted

Image
Disney’s “Muppets Most Wanted” takes the entire Muppets gang on a global tour, selling out grand theaters in some of Europe’s most exciting destinations, including Berlin, Madrid, Dublin and London. But mayhem follows the Muppets overseas, as they find themselves unwittingly entangled in an international crime caper headed by Constantine—the World’s Number One Criminal and a dead ringer for Kermit the Frog —and his dastardly sidekick Dominic, aka Number Two, portrayed by Ricky Gervais. The film stars Tina Fey as Nadya, a feisty prison guard, and Ty Burrell as Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon. Disney’s “Muppets Most Wanted” is directed by James Bobin and produced by David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman. Bobin wrote the screenplay with Nicholas Stoller, who is also executive producer with John G. Scotti. Featuring music from Academy Award®-winning songwriter Bret McKenzie, “Muppets Most Wanted”  hits the big screen March 21,2014. Like  The Muppets  on Facebook:...

Need For Speed - "The Guys"

Image
DreamWorks Pictures’ “Need for Speed” marks an exciting return to the great car culture films of the 1960s and ’70s, when the authenticity of the world brought a new level of intensity to the action on-screen. Tapping into what makes the American myth of the open road so appealing, the story chronicles a near-impossible cross-country journey for our heroes  —  one that begins as a mission for revenge, but proves to be one of redemption. Based on the most successful racing video game franchise ever with over 140 million copies sold, "Need for Speed" captures the freedom and excitement of the game in a real-world setting, while bringing to life the passion for the road that has made our love of cars so timeless. The film centers around Tobey Marshall (Aaron Paul), a blue-collar mechanic who races muscle cars on the side in an unsanctioned street-racing circuit. Struggling to keep his family-owned garage afloat, he reluctantly partners with the wealthy and arrogant ex-NAS...
