TV Watching
Hap & Leonard Is this show the ultimate Southern Gothic? I'm not sure because I've barely started watching it. I'm intrigued that it's set in the 80s. We seem to be in full-on 80s nostalgia these days.
Great Pottery Thrown Down, Season 3 I made the mistake of starting this before all the episodes are out. :(
Movies
I haven't watched any movies this week, but I saw a trailer that intrigued me. Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a very odd entry into the Arthurian canon, full of disturbing themes. And I think it was written quite a bit later than Le Morte d'Arthur. I'd have to dig up my copy of the poem to see what it said about the story's provenance (or I could look on Wikipedia, heh). Anyway, this looks amazing!
Music
I'm obsessed by Stand Up from the movie Harriet and so I finally got around to putting together the Girl Power playlist that I was talking about with . . . someone (maybe
spikedluv?). I'm still adding to it, but here's the start of it: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/30fwY4eDiYTWi2rdIm0xQz Warning, NSFW! Also, if anyone has suggestions, I'll be happy to hear them.
Books
Sadly, all the non-fanfic reading I've done this week is mostly professional things, so not entertaining.
However, a book that I just got yesterday is more fun. I've decided to continue exploring baking, so I ordered this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35715070-modern-french-pastry I've picked out a recipe that I want to start with, featuring blueberries and lime flavors. I've got to get a kitchen scale before I get into the recipes (because everything is in grams), and I'm going to put off the first one until Spring Break (which is in three weeks). I'll be experimenting with gluten free options too.
Other than that, did I mention that it's only three weeks until Spring Break??
