last night watched "Thinking of Ending Things" by Charlie Kaufman.
If you're familiar with Kaufmans work as screenwriter and director, you know what to expect, which is a thoroughly mind-bending experience.
I'm still thinking about it, which is rare today with movies. its a cross between David Lynch and David Mamet.
So, I recommend it.
but don't hate me if you hate it.
I also love Jesse Plemons, the actor.
and Toni Collette and David Thewliss - all great.
if you do watch it, set aside your phone, and relax. you can't multi-task with this experience
My "wine tasting" get-together with my nieces, sister and cousin was a success! We had a great time and lots of laughs. I cannot believe they are all grown now. It warms my heart that we can still make memories together. First pic is my charcuterie tray, second pic is fried burrata with vodka sauce, replicated from an appetizer I had at a restaurant last week.
“The temerity!”
“I would like the 12oz Prime Rib, no sides, and the salmon no sides.”
“What?!?”
“On a plate, Prime Rib” holding a hand up, “and salmon” holding up my other hand, beside the first .
“On one plate, no sides”
“No sides?”
“Correct”
“How do you want your Prime Rib?”
“If it’s still ‘mooing’, that’s OK…”
Then he brought me a gray piece of meat and a piece of Salmon.
“Really, to you, this piece of meat is rare?”
He immediately took it back and brought me another.
I then ordered more salmon.
I was hungry…
Pictures: what they tried to give me the first time, the second attempt, my second piece of salmon.
