As my first order of business at my new job, I am required to create a "top 100 movies" list, and I thought I would share.

About Me
- Sammy
- I like: food, talking about food, making food and talking about making food. I like other things as well, but it is for the above reasons I keep my recipe blog, "Bite Me". I am not professionally trained, nor do I truly know what I am doing. I am just patient and creative when it comes to cooking. "Bite Me" stories and recipes are just honest attempts to share experiences.

I can't believe how many of those I've seen. I would have to add for my list Notting Hill, Gone With the Wind, Bridget Jones Diary, Far and Away, It's a Wonderful Life, Sleeping with the Enemy, Sound of Music, Fame, Singing in the Rain, Finding Nemo, Toy Story, Beauty and the Beast, Terminator, Alien, An Innocent Man, Forrest Gump, Sleepless in Seattle, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, well, I guess I could go on and on and 100 is too limiting, I think.
