Not a lot going on. Had a complaint about my grilled cheese sandwiches coming out too dry, but I hit up the bing ai and it told me to do bake instead of toast.

Had a fantastic garlic and parmesan grilled cheese for dinner.

It's been about 82f for most of the month and I am not a Gila monster. They do look cool though.

Thanks for alerting me to this, goldie.  It's good to have some variety and I've only seen the first season.  I started watching the Swedish detective series, "The Killing"  The first episode was decent.  But it certainly left us hanging.  Tune in to episode 2...

Having finished a 3rd reading of the novel, I'm watching the Colombian series, One Hundred Years of Solitude.  I just finished episode 2.  It's hard to imagine anyone doing this book justice, but the film is ok.  It's set in Colombia, like the novel and the characters/actors are Colombian, so that does kind of bring it down to earth.  It's on Netflix with English subtitles.

Pedro Almodóvar, All About My Mother.  Very enjoyable and highly dramatic as is typical of his style.

Lola Rennt (Run Lola Run).
It's still really good, although it is not as compelling on a tv screen as it was when I first saw it in the theatre.

Tea and scones.  With a couple new marmalades I made.

Where's 8ully?  Surely, his forays into novel culinary concoctions have not ended.

From the extra weird dept:
Ace Attorney.  Japanese.  With real actors but adapted from the video game, and there's also an anime series.
Worth watching if only for the hair styles.  The sets are interesting, too.

It's hard for me to imagine a video game based on court trials in Japanese.  Certainly it was novel and I felt like I learned something from watching it.

Funny cat video.  I don't usually go for such things, but this was beguiling.  You might want to watch it without the sound.
