      The long time spent with Nigel

      At first, I thought it was a simple movie about food. After Nigel's mother passed away, a cleaning lady used her profession and food to successfully tie up Nigel's father's stomach and heart. Later, Nigel went to school to study home economics, every week I brought home the dessert I made from school and showed it to my father. When my father praised him, the stepmother began to feel crisis and fear, so the stepmother's dessert lemon pie appeared, the best dessert, and Nigel even stole it....

      I don't understand

      After reading some movie reviews, I actually didn't like my stepmother very much at first. I felt that she was just the third person in the family no matter what, but when my husband died, he said to Haimo, I have no one else but you, and at that moment I chose to forgive her. , no matter from which point of view, she actually just wants to live a good life, I don't know if she loves her later husband, but...

      Helena is a good actress.

      Read it again. On the whole, it is not a very subtle film, but Helena is probably the only one who can do the washing and housework in silk stockings.

      Housekeeping really isn't for every woman...I'm whipping egg whites while I watch and making finger biscuits today. I didn't beat the ubiquitin into a fluffy and creamy shape after making it twice. The handwork is weak. I made four or five plates, and tried the light wave file ruthlessly. Many were not satisfied, but the taste was ok,...

      Comment on toast (the dark line is love)


      Two characters impressed me the most: Nigel, mrs.potter

      mrs.potter is a very special "red apricot".

      Generally women do such things with a purpose, such as coveting the man's money. But she came to Nigel's father, as if she took it for granted, she said, "Oh, the socks are torn, I'll mend your father's sock," and after marriage I couldn't see what purpose she had, she still Busy as ever, like a simple woman.

      Still, I can conclude that she has a purpose. Nigel's...

      The story of the queen blames the aunt against the arrogant and petite Zhengtai. To conquer a man, you must first conquer his stomach. British movies can always tell a solid story. The food is eye-catching, Helena is the quality assurance of the film, and she is full of aura. Fortunately, Freddie Highmore has no permanent disability, but her acting skills need to be improved. Played well... This movie feels like there is still more to follow, but it's a pity that it ended in a...
