  • Why I Love Cooking Shows

    I genuinely forgot that this one would be going up on my birthday. If I had remembered, I’d have written an article about how booze is used in movies. But it’s too late now; I guess my rant about drunken romantic comedies will have to wait. Cooking is one of my favorite pass-times. I’m not…

  • Revisiting the Marvel Netflix Shows: Were They Worthwhile?
