Here's the festive cup this year at McDonald's Canada:
I read a good review in the newspaper about the new book by Brooke Shields called 'There was a little girl'. It's on my list now. She talks about her relationship with her strong, yet alcoholic mom. It sounds open and honest. Apparently it took her 9 months to write, and it wasn't cathartic. One interesting tidbit was that Susan Sarandon slapped her 9 times in different takes of one scene in the movie 'Pretty Baby'. Brooke's mom hinted it might have been some resentment due to Brooke having the lead role in the movie. Brooke sounds like a real survivor.

Some kids need a lot of strength to survive, that's very true. Love the festive cup! No McD here in out little town! Valerie
Too bad about the slapping. That must have hurt.
Sounds like an interesting read. Everyone has a story.
It's good to hear about the survivors. The ones who made something of themselves.
Too many blame the perps and take it out on others.
Good review.
I've always wondered if they ever fake that in movies/shows. Apparently not.
Nine times. That's not right.
Very festive cup! I remember taking performing classes in college and they taught how to fake slap (soft hand)...
The cup looks so cherrie. I just love the holidays.
The book looks good, it's on my list :-)
