Kim Kardashian Carl Jrs ad

I never eat Carl Jr's restaurants simply because to the extent possible I simply do not eat fast food; it is unhealthy, high calorie processed food that contains cheap ingredients with way too many preservatives.  I do, however, enjoyed the burger ad that Paris Hilton filmed for the company, and then Padma Lakshmi did another burger promotion.  It seems that the company has realized there are folks like me who no longer care for cheap burgers and would rather chew on celery and baby carrots when they are on the road.  Well, now the bad girl Kim Kardashian has tried to make salads look sexy by munching on one of them with her fingers wearing black underwear under her nightwear.  I still don't understand why anyone would eat salad in bed but apparently she is enjoying a picnic in bed with the Cranberry, Apple, Walnut Grilled Chicken Salad.  I still think it is a terrible idea to eat past dinner time (even if it salad), which should be latest by 6 PM.

Volver song by Penelope Cruz

If you have only been watching Penelope Cruz in Hollywood English language films, it is time to see what a fine actress she is by watching some of her Spanish movies, particularly those directed by world-famous director Pedro Almodovar.  One of his best known movies is called Volver and at one point in the film, she playing the role of Raimunda, a single mom who is running a restaurant, offers to sing at a party by members of a film crew.  The song she sings is called Volver and in case you were wondering that she sings it too, actually, she only lip-synched to a famous flamenco singer Estrella Morente.  The song in the movie is short but I wanted to hear the original song and here is the video -- just close your eyes and enjoy this beautiful music in Spanish.
