But Get That Ice or Else No Dice

Hidden Gems was incredible and Adam Sandler really transformed into a character that I'm positive I've literally bumped into in that district of Manhattan several times through the years.  Julia Fox became an instant movie star as far as I'm concerned.  Everything about her role was perfect and she could not have been more mesmerizing to watch.  Alamo is an experience when there is a great movie and I can't say enough about the awesomeness of being in a darkened theater, large comfortable chairs and never having to get up to get a thing.  You want more coffee?  Write it on the card.  Are you feeling like a big ice cream sundae? Write it on the card and ninjas come to grab it for you with lightning speed without blocking the screen.  Enjoying this M-Train flatbread in that setting is somehow so much more special.  Little slices cut on the bias.  Grabbing at loaded fries in the dark, not knowing what you're shoving in your mouth is again, fun as heck.  It's gluttonous and should be kept for special occasions but a movie debut can be that and this was.
My sister sent me this Jim Morrison-like vintage coat for Christmas so I sported it fresh for the matinee.

Later that night I made a really bright shaved Brussels sprout salad with pumpkin seeds and apples and with the tomatoes and wine vinegar dressing I thought it was a bit of heaven. This could be a light lunch for sure.
