The Inside Soap

Dazzled by Ethan Lovett’s accent and perhaps looks? Maybe not as much as Tracy, but do you think you’d like to get to know him a bit better? Or figure out who he is (has to be Luke’s son, that theory has my vote anyway)? Or perhaps you’d just like the recipe to a few of his drinks. Robin decided to visit the Haunted Star for refreshment while she was running from her baby…boy do I have a rant on that…I digress…what was his drink suggestion for her? That’s right, a Strawberry Stripper, and The Inside Soap has the recipe.

Recipe: Strawberry Stripper

Fill a Collins glass with ice. Then add 1 ½ oz. strawberry flavored Schnapps, 1 drop of Cream and 5 oz. of Orange Juice, then stir.

I don’t know about you, but that sounds great and definitely should be served with some chocolate or cake…or chocolate cake…yum.

I’ll try not to be distracted by Ethan and catch more of his drink offerings in the future. Don’t forget to drink responsibly.

Oh it happened, they’ve consummated that marriage and of course the question on everybody’s mind is not will it last or how soon will Sonny find out that Claudia had something to do with Michael lying in a coma, or better yet, does Sonny still love Kate, no none of that is on anybody’s mind. What is on everybody’s mind is what was that song playing on General Hospital during the love scene? You know you want to know. I admit I wanted to know too.

We’ll The Inside Soap has tracked down the song, “We Keep Trying” written by Rie Sinclair Jayson Belt and Bobby Hartry and the artist singing the beautiful song is Jen Hartry (see update note below). I’ve linked to Bobby Hartry’s MySpace page. The song “We Keep Trying” sung by Jen Hartry from the big Sonny and Claudia moment on General Hospital can be found on Bobby Hartry’s site. Jen’s voice reminds me of another artist whose name escapes me at this moment, but if it comes to me I’ll leave a comment here.

So did you like the fact that Sonny and Claudia are becoming an item or the suspense of when it will all fall apart…or did you just like the song?

Update - Please read the comments to this post as Jen Hartry visited and corrected some of the information we’ve found. Jen IS the artist singing “We Keep Trying” and we thank her for officiating at The Inside Soap.

I could hold a contest and make you guess what my favorite soap is after thirty days or so, but then I’d be less apt to talk about it and how can we not talk about our favorite soaps people? We all have a favorite, an absolute must see soap if we are a soap fan.

Drum roll please….

My all time favorite soap opera is General Hospital.

How much is it my favorite, oh it is my favorite soap opera VERY MUCH. So much so I almost don’t know if I can report on it actually in the sense that I’d want to read spoilers…I’m one of those that likes the element of surprise. But if my readers so decide that they want spoilers than I’ll have to give the people what they want.

Setting General Hospital aside or GH if you’d prefer, I used to like Port Charles when it had its brief run. I’m not sure how I feel about General Hospital Night Shift yet and that might be a good thing if they nix it.

So what is your favorite soap? It doesn’t have to be daytime, or even a conventional prime time soap, I consider shows like Dead Like Me a great soap opera story. Really, you should check it out.
