A River Monster Runs Through It

Hey Bookworms! The flood inducing rains have stopped for a few days and now the searing heat of summer is in full effect. It’s officially swimming season and of course that makes me think of river/lake monsters. Whether you’re planning to do some water aerobics or lounge by a lake, I feel that I wouldContinue reading “A River Monster Runs Through It”

Did I hallucinate this whole thing?

  Holey Moley 3 Pretzels Hey, y’all. I saw something recently that I haven’t been able to shake. Something I’m still struggling to make sense of it today. That something was an “extreme mini golf” competition on ABC called Holey Moley. I don’t know if this is so dumb it’s brilliant or if someone atContinue reading “Did I hallucinate this whole thing?”

A Nearly Normal Family: A Review

4 Pretzels The Sandalls have it all. Great friends, good careers, and the respect of their community. They also have a lot of secrets and will soon need to decide where their loyalties, and their moral, lie. Secrets, lies, a murder most foul, court room drama, family drama, complicated characters, handball, the struggles of workingContinue reading “A Nearly Normal Family: A Review”

Big Little Lies: Episode 203

3 Pretzels: Good with a beer or a Renata Razzmatazz. Just kidding. Don’t drink that. Two things I would like to mention before we get in to the episode. What happened to Tom? And, more importantly, what happened to his coffee shop? The gals were loyal customers last season and Jane seemed to really hitContinue reading “Big Little Lies: Episode 203”

BLL Pregame: The Renata Razzmatazz

1 Pretzel Look, it isn’t a good drink, or even a good idea, but it will most assuredly get the job done. Renata seems busy and also efficient. So, I imagine her drink to be just a glass full of gin with maybe a xanax backer. Or, if you’re feeling fancy, maybe crush it upContinue reading “BLL Pregame: The Renata Razzmatazz”

Goodness Gracious, Great Balls of Evil

Hey Bookworms! Listen, y’all. I have tried to explain several times, as recently as seven days ago, why you have to be on your toes at all times during road trips or maybe even skip them entirely. I have attempted to both shake your nerves and rattle your brains in the most loving way possible. Still, youContinue reading “Goodness Gracious, Great Balls of Evil”

Happy Anniversary Honey! I got you a corpse.

3 Pretzels What’s up, gang? In their new Netflix release Murder Mystery Adam Sandler and Jennifer Anitson pose the provocative question “What happens when you combine Happy Gilmore with Agatha Christie?” Obviously there’s going to be at least one man child and also some murder. Perhaps even murder most foul. Although Sandler’s last few moviesContinue reading “Happy Anniversary Honey! I got you a corpse.”

Milkman Keeps All the Girls from the Yard

1 Pretzel. It could be my lactose intolerance, but I was just not feeling this one. A synopsis, in brief: Milkman is set in Northern Ireland in the ’70s, that’s never specifically said, but I used context clues like car bombings, political unrest, and the early stages of feminism to figure it out. Our unnamed leadContinue reading “Milkman Keeps All the Girls from the Yard”
