My little brother talked me into playing it for him last night. I was tired but he can be very persuasive. I'm just happy it wasn't something ridiculously long, like War and Peace. My other brothers want me to find that for them. So much fun. I love War and Peace, I do. I just don't want to go looking for the 1960 version.

I was trying to eat and surf online when I gave myself a soup bath. White Bean soup is not fun to bathe in.Upside is I smell awesome.
The weekend before last, I found twenty-four episodes of The Untouchables. My dad is now working his way through them all. My father absolutely loves this old series.

Today was a deep clean day for the kitchen and everything was topsy-turvy. Even now, things are barely set to rights. Make cooking dinner anything but fun. But, we will prevail.
Dinner was something thrown together and quickly devoured. I honestly feel like I just stepped off a merry-go-round. This was not my plan for today.
On a final note, those donuts were positively perfect. As always, feel free to leave a message below.
As you all know, my mom and I taught my younger siblings how to cook. Never was I more happy about that than this week. Earlier this week I was sick so lb#3 cooked dinner two nights in a row. Now lb#2 is going to make homemade donuts tomorrow!
Next week I will let you all know how they come out. I have always wanted to try making my own but due to either laziness or fear, I never got around to it. Lb#2 is a tad more daring when it comes to food. Makes sense. He always was a foodie. That's not to say I don't have my own food adventures. They just happen less often. I blame it on the daily food grind of keeping a large family fed. It drains you real quick.
If any of you out there have any tips, please feel free to leave them below.
Well that goes without saying, you shout. Well reader, I'm not talking about the ready-cooked ones, I'm talking about the pre-prepared that Goya sells in the frozen food section. It doesn't go over well.
My mom and I were craving yuca sautéed with onions and garlic in olive oil. But the only yuca we had on hand was the aforementioned yuca fries. We figured it would fine and boiled it. When we strained it, we got a thick, starchy mess. My mom thinks we boiled it too long. I don't share that theory.
I will never do that again. If you want baby food smooth yuca, I advise you to boil yuca fries. It was so goopy that I closed my eyes for the first bite. It tasted the same but it was so weird.
Now you know. Feel free to tell me about your cooking misadventures below.
Due to circumstances outside my control, I may not be able to post every week for a bit. I will try to find ways to get a post up here but may not happen. So I will try to flood my blog with missing posts each time I do get online.
Before I go, I just want to say that Bree Wolf's new series Whickertons in Love is absolutely delightful. Also, if you haven't seen Netflix's new series Shadow and Bone, you got to check it out. It's based of Leigh Bardugo's two book series, Shadow and Bone Trilogy and Six of Crows Duology. Also my mom has finished all of Jane the Virgin. I'm still stuck on season 1.

I told you we would be back! After some ultra-mega music listening, I have got volume seven for you. I was so happy to put this one out. We got the goodies today. So, without further ado....
1.Au/Ra, Alan Walker - Ghost
Post-Apocalypse films buffs, we found your mini movie! Also, Au/Ra's voice is pure beauty. I feel like like this would totally be my drop-film. You know, that movie you've seen a million times, but would drop everything to see one more time. Try not to break the replay button to badly.
2.Lindsey Stirling - Til The Light Goes Out
I am a big fan of Lindsey Stirling. She is so incredibly gifted, that it is a true shame I never brought her up before. Anyway, though there is no lyrics, all you need to do is watch this video to see it's movie potential. If you're into fantasy films, that is.
3. Ed Sheeran - Beautiful People (feat. Khalid)
Trading Places in family friendly way? All I know is that I loved this video! They were so real in a fake world and they didn't let it change them.
4. Alan Walker & Ava Max - Alone, Pt. II
5. Ariana Grande - Break Free ft. Zedd
I guess this was Ariana embracing her inner nerd girl in a sexy(?) way. Honestly, this made me think of the 1970s Flash Gordon movie I am striving to forget. Beautiful song, but definitely a failed sci-fi wannabe.
6. Joel Corry - Lonely
A cute mini- comedy about a smartphone detox retreat. I probably need one for my tablet.
7. Jennifer Lopez & Maluma – Pa' Ti + Lonely
Jennifer and Maluma got some mega chemistry, music and acting wise. Makes me eager for their film that is coming out February 2022. But this video, manaaaaaaaan....... I want more. I need more. I keep watching it over and over, sure I missed something in this very dramatic film. Also, sorry about the language.
8. Katy Perry - Harleys In Hawaii (The Smile Video Series)
9. Marshmello - Here With Me Feat. CHVRCHES
Do you need a good tear-jerker with a happy ending? Marshmello has been so very happy to oblige. I dare you not to get choked up at the end.
10. Au/Ra - Panic Room
Something to remind you of Split, anyone? The end gets me everytime. Chilling, just chilling. Total Jam, though.
So, that is Volume 7 of Mini-Movie or Music Video. As always, feel free to leave a comment below.
