I can hardly wait for March. Spring will be a relief, but the new film, “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel“, looks fantastic. Director John Madden engaged Tom Wilkinson, Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, Bill Nighy and Dev Patel to star in a comedy about British retirees who move to India to live out their golden years and find that their new home is a dilapidated hotel.

Waldorf Chicken Salad – Not Your Grandma’s
You are witnessing a transformation.
