What Else is on...

So we're kicking out Netflix in lieu of Amazon Prime since we've been doing more online shopping (is there anything in stock in brick and mortar stores?). But oh my goodness I probably would have gotten it sooner if I had known what was on. 

Pretty much every award winning movie from the 90s is on here, the ninja turtles movies, the old MGM biblical epics, and probably my favorite documentary ever Looking for Richard. I really can't list how many shows and movies are on here that I'm a fan of, there's that many.

But by far the best discovery I've made in streaming is the Dana Carvey show on the Crackle channel, which is blowing up after it's Super Bowl spot. This show was so ahead of its time. I remember watching this show in my grandmas kitchen and thinking the impressions were funny. But watching it now I realize a lot of the jokes were way over my head because I was just a kid. It's a good thing English wasn't my grandma's first language!

In the den


My daughter was baptized this past January. I wanted to keep things low key but I was so happy we had such a big turnout from our family. My awesome MIL made so much food, we STILL have frozen leftovers in the freezer. 

I've been something of a shut in since the weather in the northeast has either been freezing, snowing, or freezing and snowing. You'd think seeing as I'm "home all day" the place would be immaculate, but cleaning has just become a sisyphusean nightmare. 

But it's an excuse to wear cozy slippers and cardigans and sip warm beverages while snuggling with my little one! And to take advantage of our streaming services.
