Edition 30

1. Roku City - the inspiration for this list

2. Zootopia - Although Zootopia seems like a walkable city… I know they have a place for me to let loose on the road

3. Radiator Springs - lowkey the point of the town

4. Mario Kart Mushroom Gorge Track

5. Wii Sports Resort

The March book club theme is: F*ck the Patriarchy and this is the book that was chosen for it. I am excited to read a dystopian book because it has been a hot second! My Hunger Games loving self is ready.

As this restaurant lets me pretend that I live in a walkable community… it is not my first time at Verde Garden. However it was my first time getting their cheese enchiladas. One thing about me is if I don’t know what I’m getting at a restaurant I will be consulting the Yelp photos. I saw pictures of enchiladas covered in queso despite it not being on the menu. I was so brave and asked for the same and was not disappointed in the result. The cilantro rice > the mexican rice.

If you were wondering what my contribution to was for the ‘Obsessed’ section this week… this was it! In my opinion, it tasted good served warm and cold. Although the dish leans more “summery” I also feel it can work to introduce the Spring season.

Let me tell you how happy I am that a non BRAT Charli XCX song is trending right now! Don’t get me wrong… BRAT is my favorite Charli project to date but I fell in love with her for her old stuff and the people should recognize that Charli has BEEN that girl. What song am I blasting in Roku City? Party 4 U of course.

Song Recommendation: Party 4 U by Charli XCX

Another podcast has been added to my rotation despite having way too many podcasts on my list already. But I absolutely HAD to support Grace post Briana Chicken Fry and post Barstool. Of course I don’t know her personally but I do know that she deserves better! This week’s guest is Connor Wood and I absolutely love a good crossover episode.

I have been wanting to watch this show but needed to wait for a Peacock plug. This show was described to me as ‘The Mole’ for theater kids and not only did that intrigue me even more… that was the perfect description. Truthfully I have seen many spoilers for this show via Tik Tok about the current season but my goal is to catch up before the finale. Plus I honestly don’t care much about spoilers because I still eat this show up regardless. I also need to acknowledge how Dylan Efron has the same voice and CHARM as Zac Efron. Ok I’m done.

This movie was unique and thrilling, but also confusing. Don’t Let Go falls into the “I saw it once and will not watch it again category” because what I liked most about it was anticipating what would happen next. There were times I truly got lost in the confusing plot but I would eventually make my way back. The random moments of shaky cam footage were wildly unnecessary.

Rating: 6/10

I love a party! I love a theme! I love a themed party! The more dedication to the theme the better. It just makes an event even better. Don’t like a theme? Sorry you don’t like fun! I got to attend two themed events this week. A book themed bridal shower and a ‘27 dresses’ 27th birthday party. Oh I was gagged! They were both absolutely gorgeous parties.

I’m not sure if I’m on a very specific side of Tik Tok or if everyone is aware of the PR nightmare Millennial Burger Joints are going through currently. People are (rightfully) slamming overpriced burger joints that are the same font different place. Here are warning signs that you may be at a Millennial Burger Joint:

1. Burger is Served on anything besides a plate

2. Ketchup comes in a tin or container

3. Brioche Bun

4. Uncomfortable but rustic looking chairs/barstools usually in the metal variety

5. “Handhelds” “Shareables”

6. Ridiculously Priced

Unfortunately I do not have the funds to visit my long distance friends as much as I want/need to. Distance does not mean you cannot hang out! I can never say that I was born in the wrong time period because I cannot imagine living in a world without facetime and cell phones. Here are cutesy virtual date ideas.

1. Color the Same Coloring page together while on the phone (even if you are friends with an artist who will upstage you)

2. Order each other surprise food delivery and have a dinner date

3. Watch a movie or tv episode at the same time (starting it at the same exact moment is absolutely crucial to avoid spoilers)

4. Cook the same recipe on facetime

One thing about me… I will be attending an event. This one just fell into my lap but I loved the concept. Everyone cooking something from a cookbook and bringing it together for a dinner party! We already know what I brought but I’m honestly not sure what my favorite was. There was a chicken, a tortellini soup, a ricotta spread, and salad. It was great food with great yaps.

This Christian man really said the quiet parts out loud! I don’t know what’s more terrifying: the thought of this man having sons or this man having daughters.
