PROMPT May 4th May the Fourth Be With You! Write about a movie franchise or book series that you love. I love the ‘Great British Baking Show’. I know that is not a movie franchise. But I do so love to watch the baking and creating. Plus the English countryside is wonderful. The way the amateurs create wonderful baked beauties makes me want to go play in the kitchen with butter, flour and eggs. And they do it for the glory, not a monetary prize. You can find replay of the shows here: https://www.watchnow.com/show/the-great-british-baking-show Remember the Pillsbury Bake-Off contests? Those were big in the past. So as I checked to see if that Pillsbury contest was still a thing, I found something they are doing that is wonderful: https://www.pillsbury.com/about-us/operation-homefront As for books, I stated before I like C.J. Box. His Joe Pickett series is good. Joe Pickett, the character, is down-to-earth, a family man, and totally human with the concerns and foibles of a real person. I love the way the author has written him and his fictional family. Start at the beginning, ‘Open Season’, from 2001. The current one, ‘Dark Sky’, has just been released. I hope to get it soon. Perhaps at Barnes and Noble the next time I’m in Billings. Or Amazon. My daughter works for Amazon. So throwing a little bone their way keeps her employed. https://cjboxbooklist.com/c-j-box-books-in-order His other books are good also. There is one, ‘The Highway’, that has recently been on TV. Perhaps you saw ‘Big Sky’? Now that one was dark and sinister. The heroine, Cassie Dewell, and her partner try to solve a murder and get involved in a dark web of intrigue. It takes place in Montana, whereas the Joe Pickett series of books usually take place in Wyoming. It’s fun to see local places referenced, even if the TV series is filmed in Canada. Perhaps this afternoon I will sit on my porch swing, eat a cupcake, and read a book. If it's not snowing that is. |
