Fictitious Endeavours

Doctor Who: So I watched the Key to Time series and took basically no notes. And it's been long enough I can't just write about them well.  So I guess I have to rewatch the rewatch. (Again, bad at rewatching.)  I just... don't enjoy Key to Time.  Maybe I could skip and come back to it. It's not like I've been doing this rewatch in another other than chaotic.  I'll give it some thought.

Romcoms: I half joked about doing a romcom watch and posting my quibbles and rants and trope stats.  Well. The universe seems to have spoken? This morning I got an email from HBO Max telling me all about all the romcoms they have to watch.  (Well, like 5 of them.  And only I had heard of.  Frankly, I think they were pushing the definition of "romcom" to the breaking point.)  So I might just have to do it.  Just because it might be funny.

So I basically have a dysfunctional relationship with romcoms.  I watch them obsessively while at the same time kinda hating them? There are some tropes that just drive me bonkers. (The run to the airport being one. UGH.)

But some of my favorite romcoms are now not movies but books.  So I've been reading tons of romcoms via the four libraries I have cards for.  So, even though I've got a hate on for reality TV, I've been reading a baking show themed romcom series and I had the newest book on request from a library.  And today - the day I needed to bake for a pot luck we are going to this weekend- the book became available. 

So I'm baking and reading about baking... it's all very meta.

Anyway so this is the book .
