I took myself out last week to The Long Center for another of the Butler Pops Series featuring the Home Alone movie. At the end of the movie, the symphony continued to play, along with a large choir of AISD students - it was lovely! I had never seen Home Alone - just snippets. It was pretty fun.
But did you know that the "scary old guy" in the movie - Marley - symbolized Jesus? The movie has deeper meaning - not just the comedy we all think it as. I have watched very few Christmas movies the last four years - I need to revisit some old favorites and find some new-to-me ones, too.
Monday - (freezer) Pork Roast, (freezer) twice baked potato, carrots {I'm off today}
Tuesday - Crab Cakes, green beans {pick up filler groceries, on call overnight)
Wednesday - Coconut Shrimp, pesto bowties, peas {baking day!, Christmas Eve church service in p.m.}
Thursday - Beef Stew, rolls, Walnut Raisin Pie, Cranberry Bars {Happy Birthday Bubbie!, I work 6a to 3p}
Friday - (all freezer) Turkey Taco Meat bowl with rice, refrieds, salsa
Saturday and Sunday - kitchen closed, but I will probably have leftover stew!

I've seen the movie concerts advertised here and have wanted to go to one. It sounds very enjoyable.
That sounds like a lovely night out! I did not know the "scary old guy" was a symbol of Jesus.
I've wanted to see one of these philharmonic/ movie pairings for a long time. I need to put it on a bucket list for winter. Home Alone is a great movie, I didn't know about that tidbit though. I need to go investigate now, I like those details. I'm a big old movie fan and there are some great ones for Christmas. I've been watching them all on repeat. I hope you find some you enjoy!
