bearshortyI cooked a lot today but it didn't feel like too much. But I made five things: veal cutlets for Tanya, rice, steamed cauliflower and broccoli, eggplant/carrot/onion stir fry with curry, and I fried chicken cutlets dipped in egg and bread crumbs. Both Tanya and Bear liked their food and ate a lot, which is always great. (Tanya loves rice, though, so this was easy, she would anything with rice in it).
In the morning we went to the playground early again, at 8am, and stayed until 10am when it got too hot. The sprinkler fountain was on, so I put her in the bathing suit and Tanya just ran around in circles for 20 minutes. The joy on the face is just awesome. Plus it kept the playground relatively cool.
In the last month, I actually managed to watch three movies: "Deadpool", "Spotlight", and "Antman". I really liked all three. I expected "Deadpool" to be hilarious and it was. It poked at all the superhero movie cliches and it worked well. It did try a little too hard but I can forgive that. It was weird for my head to keep in mind that this movie is in X-Man universe - I was watching Agents of Shield Season 3 at the same time and I kept thinking it's a Marvel movie and had to correct myself. "Antman" was cute too. The fight with the toy train was hysterical. I think it helps that Paul Rudd is very likable since some of the plot doesn't make sense. I did enjoy watching it, though. I watched "Spotlight" since it won an Oscar and I have watched every movie that ever won one. And it was on Netflix. I didn't want to stop watching it and stayed up late to finish it. It is a movie that should work - it is about journalists researching a story, the process of it, but it really keeps the attention and flows very well. It is pretty fascinating. Disturbing too, since the content is pretty heavy, but well done. I'm glad it won the Oscar.
