Mud pit? Tar? These are the SWAMPS OF SADNESS.

Æbleskivers!

Savory or sweet.

Coconut syrup. Throw some macadamia nuts in your pancake and slather it with some coco re’al cream of coconut. Delish.

The Fischer King came out a decade earlier, let along Awakenings, Goodwill Hunting… even Good Morning Vietnam was overall a very serious movie.

Brown the butter before adding back in the drained noodles and add cream cheese. Cut back the milk a bit.

Check out F/X. It’s litterally about practical special effects. It’s been a long time but I remember liking it a lot. I wasn’t subscribed to Fangoria but my buddy was.

So my sister in law just got back from Finland and gave my youngest an oversized Stinky Tshirt. She loves it and wore it all day.

aka how not to be an asshole.

Watching my kids take swim lessons I am super impressed how they KNOW how to teach. They have a slow steady progression of techniques that build on eachother. Same with gymnastics. Build strength, technique and confidence. No need to terrify kids.

In a similar vein, the social emotional learning they are teaching kids is great.

Free college education if you can speak the language. As I understand it, no citizenship required.

I definitely remember hearing “Here put this helmet and [thick] jacket on”… “Stay there and wait” etc
