I've always been a sucker for movies that throw a bit of reality into their fantasy mix whenever possible. The fact that movies like the new Liam Neeson survival thriller, "The Grey," uses killer wolves and extreme environments as the antagonist, as opposed to a fictitious monster, is a plus in my book.

Unfortunately, I am once more writing this column to you from Britain. I had not been expecting to return to this country quite so soon -- after all, it is only some six weeks since I was last here. This trip is a very sad one for me though, and was totally unexpected.

Before I came to the United States, I got the opportunity to travel extensively in Europe and, being a lover of good food, I tried many unusual dishes in many strange places. The Moravian Wedding Platter, eaten in the open air in the main square in Prague, capital of the Czech Republic, was a meat and dumpling lover's dream. Souvalaki and lamb kleftiko on the Greek island of Kefalonia were heavenly, as were many of the dishes in France, Belgium and Spain. Each country's cuisine is subtly different of course -- Spain, Portugal and Italy use far more tomatoes in cooking than the French and other northern European countries do, but they are all delicious.
