movie review: King Arthur: Legend of the Sword – we were so excited when we first saw this trailer, then so disappointed to see the critics’ reviews. finally watched it tonight, and it was a lot of fun! (weird to see Littlefinger as a good guy, though) ?

we’ve used the Paprika apps on Mac and iOS for years, and really like them. the ability to scrape recipes from web pages is great, and syncing works great (it’s handy having the recipes with you at the store). both discounted through 12/31

marathoning Lord of the Rings (extended edition, and at the Mrs.’ insistence nonetheless). it’s not perfect, but so much is so, so great. that Hobbit dumpster fire made me forget how fantastic this was
