There is only one #Scrooge for me!

#ChristmasCheer

lil1inblue This is my husband's favorite version. 🥰 2d
dabbe This is mine, too! #greatmindsagain 💙🩵💙 1d
willaful @lil1inblue We have many favorites but my husband showed us the “raise your salary“ scene from this, because he thinks Sim's performance is so amazing.

He also discovered that Scrooge is estimated to have been... 57. Exactly his age. That was a moment! 😂

lil1inblue @willaful I love that! ❤️ And I agree, that scene is most excellent. 1d
TheBookgeekFrau @lil1inblue @dabbe This was my Dad's favorite and what I was raised on. I've seen other Scrooges and they don't hold a candle to Alastair; with one exception--Oscar Madison 😂 1d
TheBookgeekFrau @willaful My father also took it as a great compliment to be compared to this Scrooge! 😂😂 1d
dabbe @TheBookgeekFrau The Odd Couple sloppy dude? Which one was your fave of him: Matthau or Klugman? 😂 1d
TheBookgeekFrau @dabbe Lol - yup; and Klugman. I grew up on repeats of The Odd Couple at 11pm followed by The Honeymooners at 11:30. And that was how I knew I stayed up really late as a kid 😂 1d
Eggs Perfect 👌🏼 14h
dabbe @TheBookgeekFrau That was a fabulous show. Randall & Klugman. Have you ever watched the movie with Matthau and Lemmon? It's wonderful, too. 🤩 11h
TheBookgeekFrau @dabbe I have. But Randell and Klugman are it for me! 11h
dabbe @TheBookgeekFrau 🤩😂😘 10h

While teaching middle school English for 12 years, that was my ONLY reading. At high school, reading was mostly the classics. Now, I love reading ANYTHING that floats my boat, YA included. I recently reread CHARLOTTE'S WEB and fell in love with it all over again. Same with THE LORD OF THE RINGS buddy read. I also signed up for the NANCY DREW buddy read coming up soon. So, long-story-short, YES!!! 🤩🤩🤩

MissyD I love Nancy drew. She founded my love of mysteries 1y
dabbe @MissyD Same here! I had all of her books and gave them to my younger sister for her kids to read. I don't know if it would be kosher if I asked for them back! (all the kids are 15 and up now). 🤣 1y
MissyD @dabbe wouldn‘t hurt to ask 1y

dabbe @MissyD Good point. I think I will! 🤩 1y
RebL Same boat. I read for work all the time (MG & YA). It‘s a pleasure to read for myself. While I often veer toward non-fiction, there‘s no rhyme or reason to what I pick. 1y
BookmarkTavern I loved Nancy Drew growing up! Thanks for sharing! 1y
CrystalE02 Yes!!! I read the Little House books every year, because my grandmother use to read them to my siblings and I when we were kids. 1y
dabbe @RebL Does that make us mood readers? Or moody readers? 🤩🤣😍 1y
dabbe @BookmarkTavern There's a buddy read coming up soon if you want to revisit her! 🤩😍🤗 1y
dabbe @CrystalE02 Oh yes, those too! 🤩😍🤗 1y
RebL I can‘t speak for you, but it‘s probably a little of column a and a little bit of column b for me 😆 1y
dabbe @RebL #greatmindsagain 🤩🤗😍 1y
