Foodie Post: FOGO de CHÃO New Fall Menu
Tinsel & Tine Announces New Fall Menu at: Brazilian Steakhouse FOGO de CHÃO By Le Anne Lindsay, Editor POST UPDATE: 6/6/18 Check out Tinsel & Tine’s SUMMER MENU Experience at Fogo de Chão! POST UPDATE: 10/9/17 I went for the dinner yesterday, check out my photos of the real thing posted to Facebook: Summer is wonderful, the days feel lazy and playful, even when you don’t have the summer off, but fall has its appeal as well, the crispness in the air, wearing my favorite leather jacket and eating heartier meals. In autumn, I like to have root vegetables and more iron enriched, red meat, which is why I’m so…

Captivating and challenging, brutal and bloodcurdling, steeped in madness,…

Lionsgate’s: REMEMORY
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor I was sent another screener by Lionsgate, this time for a Sci-Fi Mystery called Rememory starring Peter Dinklage, best known as Tyrion Lannister from Game of Thrones. Writer/director Mark Palansky (co-writer Michael Vukadinovich) wrote this movie with Dinklage in mind, having nothing to do with his size, other than the size of his talent – discovered after working together on Palansky’s first movie Penelope (2006) which also starred Christina Ricci, James McAvoy & Reese Witherspoon.
