Aladdin (Mena Massoud) meets the larger-than-life blue Genie (Will Smith) in Disney’s live-action adaptation ALADDIN, directed by Guy Ritchie.I just watched the first TV spot for Disney’s Live-Action Aladdin movie. This is the first time that we see Will Smith as the blue genie. Other images have shown him his natural skin tone but this is the first we have seen of him being blue. That was cool. Will Smith will certainly bring his own spin into the movie and from what I have seen it is going to be a huge movie, bright and colorful. There is a great scene where there are elephants adorned with all the colors of the rainbow plus we see Jasmine and her tiger, Raja coming down some steps. Not a lot was seen here but we do get to see Abu with Aladdin and also JAfar and Iago. But the big thing in this is The Genie. Take a look below.
Today Eva had extra special time with her Auntie Tara. On an effort to turn around the disaster that has been Eva’s room, Tara came over to help give her some tips and advice and she also brought some special surprises for Eva to have in her room. She also brought a special surprise for Andrew’s room. We’ll have to tackle his room another time. For now, Eva’s room is pretty well cleaned out. We still have to figure out a bookshelf situation and do the clothes and closet but progress was made. She is so happy with her little corner where she can just chill out and read and do whatever.
Andrew’s room is next on the overhaul train. We’ll be removing the LEGO table and putting in a desk. He’s wanted a desk for a while now.
Tonight for dinner Allison made a special meatloaf that was wrapped in Honey Jack Bacon from Chub’s Blue Pig BBQ. I picked up a pound of it on Friday when I went there for lunch. I had been craving Chub’s brisket ever since having it a couple of weeks ago. I started following their Facebook page, which is a mistake if you get easily swayed to foods upon seeing them.
I was planning on going there on Friday anyway to get more brisket. I was working and I saw a post up that they had 6 pounds of Honey Jack Bacon for $12 each and if you wanted one to leave a comment to reserve it. I left a comment but I was too late. I went over anyway and was talking to everyone there about missing out. Then they asked me if I would take a pound that was frozen. I said sure and the gave me a pound. I could not wait to try it out and it was not disappointed!
