I lost my mind several days ago and signed Carson, Ella and I up to pick blueberries.

CHICAGO – We see sensual close-up shots of blueberry pie overflow with aqueducts of vanilla ice cream in Wong Kar-Wai’s opening sequence of “My Blueberry Nights”. This dreamy scene sets the tone of the latest film from the famous Chinese director as he confronts the West with his unique cinematic style.
Split into three separate stories, the film begins in a bohemian New York café owned by Jeremy (Jude Law) where Elizabeth (Norah Jones) discovers that her boyfriend has left her for another woman.
Distraught, she leaves her keys with sympathetic Jeremy and hopes her ex will pick them up at the café and be out of her life forever. Elizabeth seeks comfort in Jeremy’s companionship and accepts his advice over leftover blueberry pie. Still, her heart is broken. Elizabeth decides she

The air smells sweeter in the Spring, doesn't it?The one thing that excites me about Spring is the anticipation of all things green. Green grass, green trees, and fresh produce.I am a sucker for the little farm markets all over the suburbs that feature home-grown fruits and veggies. There is just something about fruit and vegetables that are "locally grown". It tastes different. And then there's the homemade baked goods, but let's not go there. I haven't had breakfast yet.David has a thing for local blueberries. This goes waaaaay back to his toddler years. He knows when you are trying to "trick him". Don't bother trying to pass off blueberries imported from Canada. He can pick out a blueberry grown in NJ with a blindfold.Now that winter is behind us and my daffodils are in their last full

The film, which is just exploding with beautiful colors (see above poster for a small taste), marks famed director Wong Kar Wai's English-language debut -- and it centers on a young woman (Jones) who embarks on a soul-searching trip across America, running into an assortment of offbeat characters along the way. Definitely one of my favorite posters of the year so far -- once you move away from the dazzling color scheme, you're then left with the gorgeous faces of Weisz, Portman and Jones.

Blueberry (Blueberry: L'expérience secrète) is a French movie adaptation of the popular Franco-Belgian comic book series Blueberry, illustrated by Jean Giraud (better known as Moebius) and scripted by Jean-Michel Charlier. This adptation is very loosely based on the comic and adds mystical and shamanic elements not present in the source material of interest to the movie's director, Jan Kounen.In the 1870's, U.S Marshal Mike S. Blueberry tries to stop Wally Blount, the man who killed his girlfriend from getting to a stockpile of gold hidden in Indian territory. On his way, he meets Prosit, a German villain on a persistent mission to find gold in the Superstition Mountains.The film combines some action-packed western sequences with lots of druggy references as Blueberry follows his Indian

By: David MaillieOften times, when we think of superfoods we think of spinach, grapes, green teaand other vegetables and extracts that are primarily listed for their levels ofantioxidants. Did you know that the blueberry is one of the most nutritious andpowerful superfoods? According to Dr. Perricone, one of the worlds foremost skincare experts, “Blueberry along with the acai berry have one of the highest knownlevels of antioxidants of any food.” Higher than red wine and green teacombined. It is full of amino acids, vitamins, and antioxidants, and essentialfatty acids.

My Blueberry Nights is Wong Kar-Wai's first American film and even though not his best, still is a great effort. Choosing for great long takes and filming from interesting angles, My Blueberry Nights, like his other films, is drenched in the already famous Kar-Wai coating. Like many of his films, My Blueberry Nights includes trains and some fight scenes in bars and diners. Also there's the fast forwarding, providing for the energetic atmosphere. Already from the opening credits it's visually stunning, choosing to presents his viewers with a great close-up of something that looks like dripping ice cream or cake. It's a beautiful image and gives you a feeling of joy, realizing you're watching a real filmmaker. With songstress Norah Jones in the lead, his first American film is immediately rather daring. Never acted in a film before, it's a big task to all of a sudden be at the center of one, having to lead the audience through its depicted story. Surprisingly, Jones is a great find
Chinese movie directors are making it happen this year!!!Here's a new and super intense war movie by Chinese Director/Actor Feng Xiaogang called "Assembly". My wife Zoe and I watched the movie's preview party last night on CCTV 6. There were about 10,000 audience members and tons of Chinese celebs at the party and they were all pretty hyped up about the flick. The movie takes place during the Chinese civil war in the early 20th century and is about a soldier who watched all his army comrades die in a bloody and violent battle. Based on a true story, Assembly is guaranteed to move you. It should be out in the states and around the world, so if you get a chance, watch it. Jerry Bruckheimer, eat your heart out. Here's the trailer: My Blueberry Nights, starring Norah Jones, is a movie by another critically acclaimed cult movie director, Wang Kar Wai. You might have heard of him from Chongqing Express and 2046. I'll be performing at the My Blueberry Nights Shanghai release par

What can I say? Blueberries were on sale this week, so I made blueberry muffins. Muffins are one of those things I really need to work on. I can never achieve the nice "dome" or "muffin top". I'm going to have to list muffins with french macaroons in the I need to master/conquer category. Even though the muffins are missing their tops, they were still quite tasty. The recipe is from Dorie Greenspan's book "Baking", that is why I know it was me and not the recipe. Well , I'm off to enjoy the Labor Day weekend, have a safe and fun time everyone!

Jeremy and I love to eat fresh, young thai coconuts. Ice cold from the fridge, we drink the sweet nectar first, then cleave the seed itself open and wedge the meat out with our fingers. It's like a drug. I mean, aside from the tasty goodness that is coconuts, the fresh ones are packed full of nutrients, and the nectar is very electrolyte rich. You can generally find them at Whole Foods or somewhere similar for a few dollars a piece, but you'll find the exact same thing at most asian markets, for usually a dollar each.So, we were walking through the Farmer's Market in Santa Monica today (the one on Main St.) and I suddenly get this huge whiff of lavender. You see, at the market, there's a lavender vendor. I usually stop and browse, but today I had an instant surge of ideas running through m

They grow the large rabbit eye blueberries that are grown in Texas.Blueberries are rare here in La Ceiba. We've only seen them at the grocery once before. Another time a neighbor whose uncle grows them for export gave us a couple of gallon bags. Boy, was I happy! We shared some with our workers who had never seen blueberries before but really liked them, too. I hoarded the rest for months in the freezer.A couple of weeks ago, El Jefe happened upon some at the grocery store. He brought a large carton home and we played a guessing game about how much they cost. I guessed L.100 (US $5.29). He pointed his thumb down. I guessed L.60. He pointed his thumb down. I guessed L.40. He said L.25! "L.25 and you only bought one carton?!!!! I would have bought them all!" I cried in dismay.The next time we went to the stor
