I tried out the latest group activity craze - it was fun to come out of this two hour paint and (eating/drinking) with a somewhat finished creation. It was a paint-by-number experience except you had to eyeball things that the instructor did.
Bought:
BOOKS, Inc. hosted author, Kristin Hannah, to promote her latest, The Great Alone. Most of the inspiration for this novel was Alaska.

-Documentary | imdb | my rating: 5
FINDING KUKAN investigates the story of Chinese Hawaii-born Li Ling-Ai, the un-credited female producer of KUKAN, a 1941 Academy Award-winning color documentary about World War II China that has been lost for decades.
GREAT pick for Women's History Month as it reveals Li Ling-Ai and the scope of her involvement in the Oscar documentary film winner, Kukan. What a woman!
Check out their website (here) for a screening near you. And, be on the lookout as it will air on PBS soon.
