Whip It (2009)

Drew Barrymore makes her directorial debut in the new feature film "Whip It." The talented Ellen Page stars as Bliss, a girl living in Texas in the world of Beauty Pageants and Friday Night Football. But, Bliss wants to discover her own way in life, to the dismay of her mom. She discovers a Roller Derby flyer and travels to the next town to see it. This may just be the ticket, a true "light bulb" moment for Bliss. Our recipe for Spirited Strawberry Parfait celebrates Bliss's "spirit" with a fabulous strawberry liqueur. Fresh strawberries are Reel Good Recipes' interpretation of Bliss. She is sweet, Innocent, and looking for what or who will energize her spirit. The action of the Roller Derby, Bliss's life discoveries, and our delicious Spirited Strawberry Parfait beat the Beauty Pageants any day!
