It was unanimous.

I made that TicTok grape tomato feta thing that's been going around the internet. It was good.

Yes, I'm a bit late to the game. But I got more grape tomatoes in my vegetable box yesterday. So I thought I'd try it.

DR CHAS SMITH I enjoyed your cat story and your adventure to the Fleas.

Yes DR ELMORE cats are especially sensitive to and for.....and some spirits if you believe in such a thing are drawn to them.

Thanks for the report. I almost made it last week for the same reason. I ended up using the tomatoes in a soup.

We got out for a good walk earlier this morning, as the prediction was for worse weather this afternoon and evening. And they were right.

I am just finishing up the movie First Cow, which, by all rights, I should have loved. It's a food movie, of sorts. But it was painful, and too many of the scenes were so dark, i couldn't see what was going on. Had the same problem trying to watch it at night.

So, I had the subtitles on and that just made it slower going somehow. A true slog.

It started well and had so much potential. Sadly it went dark instead of being fun.

I'm going to start up something lighter. Clark Gable and Hedy Lamarr in "Comrade X." Said to be the "funniest love comedy since 'Ninotchka.'"

Hmmm, I don't remember this. It is hard to imagine I have never seen it.

It was fun until the plot interfered. Now, with 20 minutes left, it's not really a comedy anymore.

Daren, two disappointing movies in a row.

I am not happy with the latest Grisham novel as I do not like the direction it has gone. I am done reading him.

Jane · « **Reply #107 on:** May 02, 2021, 04:41:56 PM »

Initially I liked the story even while I didn't think much of the writing.

I think this evening's movie will be better. It's a documentary called An Accidental Studio and traces George Harrison's second career as a movie mogul.

Good night, friends.

The end of the book got better.

Tonight we are watching the last 3 episodes of You, Me, and the Apocalypse.

I ordered shrimp scampi from Barone's - it was really good, very low in calories, and very carb friendly. Came with some vegetables.

I'm now twenty-one albums into the Ormandy set. Much brilliant music making.

Watching the extras of An Accidental Studio. Interviews with Terry Gilliam and Michael Palin have some very funny bits as well as some better insights into George Harrison as a person than the movie had. And it's true, the movie is about the studio. But Harrison is actually more interesting than the story of the studio.
