Dough-Gooder

This afternoon the kids watched “Ponyo,” the Japanese animated fantasy film written and directed by the acclaimed Hayao Miyazaki. For those of you who haven’t seen it, Ponyo is a fish-girl, and that’s about all you need to know about it/her and the film. The animation is stunning and the storyline is a bit—how best to describe it?—fishy, but the movie managed to keep the kids’ attention afloat all 101 minutes. And Olivia went as far as to create a soft-pretzel rendering of her new favorite fish-girl.
