Saturday Lunch Review: The Hanover Hub

For our 25th week, we went to The Hanover Hub under the McAllister Hotel.  The lunch was very delicious and extremely reasonably priced.  Everything was priced very well and we really enjoyed the food.  The fries stood out, they had old bay on them and they were very good.  Most of the menu had some sort of chicken with it, but they also had a Philly cheese steak, which is what I got.   I would definitely recommend The Hanover Hub to anyone and I know that we will definitely be returning here to eat again.

Movie Review: Maleficent

The movie Maleficent was a fantastic spin on the old Disney Classic, Sleeping Beauty.  I will say this to start, if you are a die hard Sleeping Beauty fan and you live by the way the story is told in the Sleeping Beauty movie, I would not recommend Maleficent as the story is changed from the original.  However, the story of Maleficent is much more interesting and captivating.  Angelina Jolie does a magnificent job portraying the twisting and changing emotions of Maleficent in the movie.  The young actress, Elle Fanning, does a wonderful job showing the youthful innocence of Aurora as well.  Now I don't want to spoil anything, but the ending to the story gives a wonderful message about true love and the meaning and existence of true love.  It is a fabulous message for young girls and Disney does a fantastic job showing the real meaning of true love.  I would definitely recommend this to anyone, Disney fan or not, this movie is definitely a must see. 

Saturday Lunches: Warehouse Gourmet

Today for lunch we went to the Warehouse Gourmet for lunch.  The atmosphere was very nice, it was a subtle but classy place.  We were served water in glass carafes and bread with a tasty spread once we were seated.  We ate at the Bistro, but there is also a bar upstairs.  The staff was very polite, however we did not get checked on at the table very often.  But the food was very good, we both had a honey mustard chicken wrap and it was very good, it was smaller than we expected, but was very reasonably priced.  We enjoyed lunch here very much and definitely intend to return! 

Brain Training App - Elevate

There is a new app for Apple products, I'm not sure if it is also for Androids as I don't have an Android device.  This app is called Elevate.  To the left is the Icon for the app.  This app is a really neat one, its meant to help improve your intelligence.  The app consists of levels and different games to play.  You can choose what you want to improve on, there are four or five different options, the include; reading skills, memory, writing conciseness, spelling, and listening.  Elevate is a "brain-training" app.  Its also very fun to play.  The catch is that you can only play it once a day.  You are given three games or "sessions" to complete each day.  The game tracks you on how well you do and gives you stats and rankings against other players.  You also get stats for how well you day based on previous days.  I've been using this app for about a week now and I definitely think its working.  Its a lot of fun and I would definitely recommend it to anyone.  Give it a try, I hope you enjoy it!
