Thank you for the laugh validation! And I had completely forgotten that part of Amelie - the parts I remember most are how Amelie turned around to watch people's faces during movies, and how she drove the mean guy crazy by changing things slightly around his apartment. GREAT movie.

Thank you for the links, too! I will forward them to the Jimster. I already told him about the pumpkin brewing thing, he is VERY intrigued. :)
