the invention of lying .....

this film is genius!
enough said.

I heard really bad reviews about it and so I was ready to side with everyone else that it was crap......but as soon as I started watching it I loved it!
It is an amazing concept - basically a world where the concept of lying had never been invented.
 So all conversations were factual and honest - all films were historical and based on things that had happened in the past as the idea of fiction had never been invented.


An interesting twist is when one man somehow invents lying completely by accident and then it goes too far - he ends up creating the idea of the 'man in the sky' - obviously making connections to religion and God.

I honestly thought it was clever, and far from being offensive  to religion - it was actually refreshing and harmless! 

another genius invention from Ricky Gervais. 
Give it a watch!


Culinary skills ...

This week my mum is away on holiday and so that means while I am at home I am responsible for the food that is cooked
so far I have managed a Salmon salad (with beetroot, potato salad and red onion) and a very lovely Prawn and Chorizo Paella with salad and eton mess for dessert :)
