The Bed List/The Dinner List

Posted by on Mar 31, 2006 in dish | 0 comments BED LIST: CARY ELWESI don’t care how many villains he might choose to play–for me, Cary Elwes will always be Westley. “A farm boy, poor and perfect, with eyes like the sea after a storm.” I mean, really; no normal woman would turn down someone this good looking, especially when he’s staring you in the face and uttering the words “As you wish.”DINNER...
