You can see new photos of Angelina Jolie and Maddox Jolie-Pitt, as well as the rest of the family, there!

We all love seeing the family do normal, every-day family things, and what’s more normal than going to the grocery store?! Brad, Angelina, Shiloh and Zahara were spotted getting some fruits and vegetables at a little fruit and vegetable stand in France just recently.

I love how cute the girls look! Princess Zee looks as though she’s a bit upset at the Paparazzi, but Shiloh’s taking it all in stride. Looks like they’ve got their silkies with them and I love how Shiloh is wearing Angelina’s hat! Seeing this family always makes me smile, even if Brad is visibly a bit upset at the paparazzi taking photos of the family (I can’t blame him – I’d be upset too if they got that close! Bad paparazzi! Use your telephoto lenses!)

Still, I tend to wonder what the family bought – can you tell?

There were rumors, when Inglourious Basterds first came out, that the movie was not very good. There were rumors that it was going to bankrupt the Weinstein brothers and that it was going to flop massively.

That’s why we shouldn’t listen to rumors. They’re so often wrong!

Estimates show Inglourious Basterds as having earned something to the effect of $227.91 million worldwide so far. Let me repeat that – $227.91 MILLION.

Everything that I’ve heard about this movie says that it’s amazing, and even though I didn’t get the opportunity to watch it in the theater (we have a really small theater here), I am definitely going to be watching it when it comes out on DVD.

And now we have a potential release date for that DVD release. Den of Geek is reporting that the US DVD and Blu-Ray release of Inglourious Basterds is December 15, 2009.

I’m not sure if this is accurate or not – I sort of hope it is, though! Do you think that Inglourious Basterds could be released so soon?

• “I am just a dedicated mother and really quite normal,” she tells OK! “I dedicate my free time to my United Nations work; I have a sincere interest in social issues. At the same time, my main focus is on my children. I want to be with them for the big moments in their lives.”
• Angelina reportedly flew to Ethiopia with daughters Zahara, 4, and Shiloh, 3, for two days.
• “I don’t ask for all this tabloid attention, so I never read what they write about us,” says Jolie. “I have a family to take care of. I don’t even go out that much, I travel and do a film and that’s about it so I don’t understand why people want to know more about our lives.”
• For her part, Angelina is completely unfazed by the endless speculation about her love life and her health. “There is a tendency to know more and more, but I’m so used to this craziness which always surrounds us,” she says.

I love that Brad took Maddox with him to New York City – it gave the two some father/son time and gave us some great new Maddox Jolie-Pitt pictures! Mad’s getting so big! He’s becoming such a little gentleman!

Brad took Maddox to Dave & Busters after the Clinton Global Initiative and then the two headed to JFK to ostensibly head back home to France. I love the photo of Maddox looking in his takeout box! I wonder what he got? If he’s like my son, it probably is something fried!

Are you guys as happy as I am to see new photos of Maddox?

Brad Pitt did indeed appear at the Clinton Global Initiative in New York City today to discuss all that has been going on with the Make It Right campaign. He talked about the houses that have already been built and the ones that are going to be built. And check this little piece of information out:

The average electric bill for one of the energy-efficient homes built in New Orleans by Brad Pitt’s Make It Right foundation is $35 a month.

Can you imagine?! Only $35 a month?! We’re pretty careful about the energy we use in our house, and we still hit at least $75 a month, and definitely over that in the summer months when we need to run the air conditioner. And apparently it’s even getting cheaper to build the houses as they’re building them, proving to Brad that there’s no reason why we can’t all build homes like those that are being built in New Orleans.

“I don’t know how we build any other way anywhere else,” he said. “We can no longer tell ourselves that implementing this technology is too complex a problem because it’s just been proven on this little spot on the map.”

And not only did Brad update everyone on the homes, he accepted a honor from the US Green Building Council for constructing the largest community of green homes in the world – that’s some honor!

I may not love Brad’s goatee as shaggy as it is, but I definitely love all of the amazing things that he and Angelina do for the world.

We’ve all been hoping for photos of the family – wish granted! Angelina Jolie, Pax, Zahara, and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt were just spotted getting some new toys at Toys-R-Us in Toulon, France.

Would you believe that I was actually somewhat surprised that there is a Toys-R-Us in France? I wonder what it’s called – is it called Toys-R-Us like in the US, or is it a different french name? Hmm…good question.

Anyway, I love how the kiddos are dressed! Pax has got the army pants going on, Princess Zee has a loose skirt much like her mom wears, and Shiloh…she’s fabulous! Looks like Shiloh is pretending again, although I don’t think she’s Peter Pan this time. Looks more like she’s a pirate with the vest and sword, doesn’t it? And I think she’s wearing one of daddy’s hats!

So do you guys love the new photos or what?
