So this will now be a short review/list of things I have discovered to be good of late.
- Palapa Azul ice cream. Bought the coconut sorbet recently for LP (Lifetime Partner), who had a terrible sore throat. I don't know how it is though, since I didn't get to try any! However, today I brought home the Corn flavor. Wait, wait, it is reeeeally good. Reminds me of the frozen corn souffle my mom used to umm... defrost and heat? But in ice cream. Yum. texture is sort of like you would think: like a ice cream with some polenta or maizena in it. Here's the site, and a review, although still v. basic: site; Review
- Brett Dennen is what I'm listening to. Here's his myspace page, with some samples. His songs are naive and trite, and yet I am fascinated by his voice and guitar playing. And some of his trite lyrics are still somehow right-on. From Ain't No Reason, "You can spend your whole life working for something, just to have it taken away."
- And on that note, may I recommend the documentary One More River: The Deal That Split the Cree? short description And also, though I have not yet seen it, have heard it's good and recently met one of the main folks involved in the film Homeland: Four Portraits of Native Action. So, check that one out, too, if you can find it.
