In honor of Betty White, Emily and Sophia decided to watch and review The Lost Valentine.  This movie had the girls all in their feels, with tears galore.  The movie touches on the military, keeping hope alive, Valentine's Day, and true love.  All favorites for Emily and Sophia. 

Yes, that's the legitimate name of the most recent Aurora Teagarden movie that we watched, and if you're unsure about our opinion...well, let's just say the title was the best part of the movie. Basically more people are murdered and Aurora enlists her sleuthy brain and endless small town connections to help find the bad guy and solve the case. We also tested our chick flick knowledge with an ever...

Jingle All the Way (Disney+) with Arnold Schwarzenegger was one of the movies that Emily and Sophia discussed.  Sophia had never heard of it before she watched it with friends, while Emily grew up watching it.  So, they had A LOT to talk about!  The type of movie it is, funny quotes, and overall vibes of the movie. Is this a cult classic, or something that should be left in the past...
