Calories to be printed on restaurant menus

I saw this article a few weeks back, and not sure how i feel aboutit to be honest :-/ i think in a way its good because it may make people think more about what their eating and help them make healthier choices, but to be honest i dont think they can get every single dish exactly to the calorie content they claim it contains, it can depend on how much sauce the put on, how big a steak is etc, so for one thing, i don't think it will be very accurate...but i personally don't like the idea for me because i am trying very hard to NOT think about calories! these days i try really hard to chose dishes i will enjoy, not just get the smallest salad on the menu!! If you have any thoughts or views on this idea, just write up a quick comment below!! :) xxx heres the link to the article i read >   http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1315302/UK-restaurants-asked-print-calories-menus-combat-unhealthy-eating.html

Favourite Childhood Film?

What's yours? I think mine are, Tarzan, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Aladdin,Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory (old version of course!) The Lion King and Dracula....yeah i was an odd little kid lol.
I was watching Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory because it was on T.V the other day, and it made me remember a time when i was fine with eating popcorn when watching a film, just watched and mindlessly munched away!! I loved that i could do that, i know it may never be that way again, but you can always dream!
I realsied how 'safe' watching these films make me feel, they also make me feel kind of sad, because i can remember a happier time, which has sort of passed i guessed, but thats a part of growing up. I think no matter what happens you will soon have worries and troubles, life is so easy when your little. And although i can't go back in time and be that care-free little girl anymore, i can always sit down and escape the world in willy wonka's chocolate factory or inTransylvania with keanu reeves! ;)
Take a day off, turn off your phone and computer and watch your childhood favorite - popcorn optional. Have a good week :) be happy!! xxxxxxxxx
