  4. haha yea, I read and reread several times , again after i get the ingredients measured. It's luck mostly...

    As far as the movies goes, its a lovely idea I got from a show a long time ago, If I haven't seen a movie I will say yes to avoid getting a description and plot of a movie I didn't want to see in the first place, or worse, one I DID want to see
