Copper kettles, woolen mittens, brown paper packages tied up with string...

Vivi Davvero by Giorgia

Pick-me-up song #2: It’s peppy, it’s cheery, and it’s in “exotic” Italian. And Vivi Davvero by Giorgia always makes me think of sweeping, gorgeous views of Venice from above… (Yes, yes, I’ve seen Chasing Liberty. More than once.)

But in all seriousness, it’s such an “energy” song, and, well, it makes me smile and want to dance along.

Any dancing?

    What is it with accessories and DVD sets these days? Are knick knack companies going through some rough times? Or are studios just really desperate to sell DVDs? (Probably the latter.) First there was A Christmas Story (Ultimate Collector's Edition), with its cookie cutters, recipe book, apron, commemorative Christmas tin... (Whoa, I know.)

    And now there's The Notebook (Limited Edition Gift Set), which comes with a scrapbook album (with stickers!), notecards, envelopes, and "themed" bookmarks. But... wait for it... no new DVD extras or features! So totally worth it. Check out Entertainment Weekly for the lackluster DVD set review (a grade of D - harsh). Or, even better, Amazon's video montage of the contents, set to the soothing, Jane Austen movie-esque sounds of The Notebook's theme music. Hey, they know their audience.
