1. When I'm holding down the fort, I prefer cooking in the early part of the day. So this morning, I opened a HelloFresh bag, chopped Brussels sprouts and cooked them, toasted a packet of panko with green onion, boiled spaghetti, and made a lemony white sauce and enjoyed Lemony Spaghetti with Brussels Sprouts Sprinkled with Scallions and Toasted Panko for lunch with half of what I fixed packed in the icebox for Saturday.
2. I returned to Vizio University today and decided that it might be fun to watch a Preston Sturges screwball comedy. I rented Lady Eve, a light and wacky romp starring Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda, in an implausible and fun-filled tale on a luxury liner about a wealthy snake expert (Henry Fonda) who's been on the Amazon for a year colliding with the a trio of card sharps, fronted by Barbara Stanwyck, who plan to fleece the naive scientist for thousands of dollars. Things get complicated when Stanwyck's seductive ploy, against her will, turns into an authentic love affair. Soon this screwball tale takes has more ups and downs than a Six Flags roller coaster and the wild ride to come is dizzying and a lot of fun.
3. I wasn't quite ready to call it a night, so I relaxed until after midnight by watching a WTP poker tournament from about 2012 that took place in Venice, Italy at the Casino di Venezia. The poker was fun to watch, but almost as fun was being inside this majestic casino, the world's oldest, and having a chance to enjoy the romantic beauty of Venice itself.
