I just could not believe what an incredibly
extensive list this could become.
Once I started...I could not let it go.
So, how did I begin this outrageous endeavour?
What began as a fun informational research
(at least in part to search for rental movies over the holiday)...
soon became a plethora of choices pertaining to several of my interests.
I was then led much further...and through my vigorous digging...
I soon found myself swimming in a sea of films pertaining to the wide world of food.
to mind-boggling documentaries...
this research had (much later) proven
to be a very good use of my time.
to be a very good use of my time.
It confirmed itself as both interesting as well as intriguing.
At the worst of times, although some of the food related documentaries

most of which had never passed my radar.

categorized by the rental companies.
However, to my disappointment, but not to my surprise...
some finger work on my part was necessitated.
Was I crazy to continue?
I was behind in my work...
my chores were falling by the way side...
I had not even started my holiday gift wrapping...

my final holiday cookie selections.
After a while, though...
