If you are looking for a new obsession...check out SCARS OF BEAUTY (BELEZA FATAL), HBO Max's first original soap opera from Brazilian author/screenwriter Raphael Montes! First episodes went live today in Brazil, Portugal and the US!

Hey Brazil, Portugal and North America...Tune in on Jan 27th to MAX for their first telenovela, BELEZA FATAL, created, written and produced by Raphael Montes.

Raphael is known for his psychological thriller and crime novels, movies and series.

This is not your abuela's telenovela...

Congrats to Wenonah Wilms, Johnny LaZebnik, and all of the other incredibly talented writers nominated for this year's WGA Awards!!

You see the R/B combo a lot. It definitely looks good, but you might end up feeling like you are wearing a uniform. The B/Y combo is just as sophisticated, but feels less likely to mark you as "one of a crowd."

If I may, check out the good work being done by Dear Pandemic. It's a public-facing all-female group of scientists that started during the early days of Covid. They do regular live Q&A's and now cover a pretty wide range of topics.
(Full Disclosure: My wife is a co-founder).

Today, why not enjoy honey-cured egg yolks with fresh sourdough crumpets?

"The science hasn't changed, we just don't care anymore. The economy is open for business, and the machine needs people to chew up to feed itself! Just suck on a Ricola and get to work, and if you die, we can probably use your body as a chair or something, which is very sustainable!"

This thrill never gets old...a client's first screen credit is a thing of beauty. Wenonah is an award winning filmmaker, but S4, EP 5 of TRUE DETECTIVE is her first TV credit!!

The goose ended up staying home, but he absolutely brought more than one stuffy. The docs made sure his bunny was right there with him the whole way.

My 9 year old has knee surgery today. He was told he could bring "one stuffy".

So.

Something like that, I bet.

Anyhow, I am gonna go ahead and call this pomagranate-cut his Persephone Pennant and call it a day.

I'm not sure. I am still trying to figure out where people are buying beige flags and why. Is it to dirty-surrender?

You mean like the orange peel test or the tea bag trials.

Netflix 2024 Movie Slate: Titles From Jamie Foxx, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Jerry Seinfeld & Woo... Netflix has unveiled 2024 release dates for films from Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Lopez, Cameron Diaz and Eddie Murphy's Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F.

Super stoked for clients and pals Jim Martin and Rosemary Contreras for their respective films coming out on Netflix this year, WOODY WOODPECKER GOES TO CAMP and THE CASAGRANDES MOVIE!

Time to make the crumpets.

This is attempt #1. I browned the tops slightly, which I now see was a mistake. But I didn't burn them, and they seem pretty proper otherwise.

They weren't even that hard to make! I only baked half the batch, so am very interested to see how the rest hold over.

Project Dinner Roll is a success.

Suck it, Texas Roadhouse.

Hey. Maybe have a little soup and a grilled cheese today.

You deserve it.

It worked out pretty ok! Highly recommend.

It's 2024, and I'm back on my bullshit.

Breakfast today: Chili-crunch fried chick peas and eggs.

Moonlight over Lake Superior...

Time to cast some spells.

Old Fashioned with some candied pineberries to keep it festive.

Kind of a process, but well worth the effort...

Voila, a holiday-spiced clarified milk punch to celebrate the season!

A favorite of Benjamin Franklin and Charles Dickens, and now of mine.

I went to see it, and took my dad to see it the very next day.

He, in turn, took a group of his neighbors (ranging in age from 75-92) to see it the NEXT day.

And now a quarter of said neighbors don't speak to him any more.

And that, my friends, is the awesome social-filtering power of cinema.

Boozy eggnog jello-shots...

That looks fantastic!
