Delgo is a new family movie that brings a little peace and goodwill to theatres this holiday season. The movie is an animated action adventure set in a mythical country. It's the story of Delgo, an unlikely hero, and his friend Princess Kyla.

The reason I liked this movie is because it's about acceptance between different cultures. Delgo has a great message that's appropriate for families, especially around the holidays!  

However, I'm getting my teen daughter to see the movie by talking up the movie's main characters. The hero Delgo is the voice of Freddie Prinze Jr., and Jennifer Love Hewitt is the voice of Princess Kyla. The movie features a number of celebrity voices including: Chris Kattan, Val Kilmer, Kelly Ripa, Burt Reynolds, to name a few.

Holly Huddleston: Sunset Tan Star Shows Skin for Santa

December 12, 2008 at 12:58 PM by Cafe MichelleL - Comments (1)

Sunset Tan’s Holly Huddleston stripped down to her underwear for the new FHM Online Holiday Lingerie Guide, which starts today.  That's right ladies, it's not enough that Victoria's Secret has a fashion show every holiday season.  Now we've got Holly Huddleston, one of the Olly Girls from the reality show Sunset Tan for our significant others to drool over!


Are you a fan of Sunset Tan? It's totally cheesy but fun to watch! I have to break it to my husband today that it doesn't matter what he buys me from Victoria's Secret and FHM Online, Santa is not bringing him Holly Huddleston!  Does your man get you items from these catalogs for the holiday?  Talk to me!

Xbox 360 has a cool family game called You're in the Movies.  This game brings the cool factor to kitsch as you live out your dreams of becoming a scream queen, zombie, or kung fu fighter. New this holiday season, it's the first and only game of its kind to transport players into a magical world of movies mixed with the hilarious world of improvisation.

Using the Xbox LIVE Vision camera, players' actions are captured and placed into short, films that highlight the unique and often dubious acting talents of friends and family. Performances never end up on the cutting room floor and are never the same. With You're in the Movies, your and your family are the stars! Get ready for your close-up.

Xbox Experience is a Family Entertainment Center!

December 10, 2008 at 1:24 PM by Cafe MichelleL - Comments (2)


You might have an Xbox 360.  But do you have the new Xbox Experience?  If you haven't checked out the new operating system for Xbox 360, you should look into it because it's a one-stop family entertainment center.


There are tons of new features but here are a few of the goodies:

You can your play with other gamers all over the world. My teen daughter and my husband were playing HALO the other night with some people from Japan and Mexico.

There are parental controls and safety features. My husband and my kids have been dying to get the upgrade but I wouldn't let them.  After doing some research on the parental controls, they wore me down and I gave in.

Cool avatars and photo sharing. All players have their own avatars, for multi-player online games and you can share photos via the Xbox Live Photo Party.

Movies and TV shows. You can instantly download Netflix movies and TV shows, directly to your Xbox.
