Scharfe Blumenkohl Kartoffel Kokoscremesuppe mit knusprigem Schwarzbrot Topping

Hatte in der 3 Euro Retter Tüte vom Discounter heute einen riesen Blumenkohl, ein paar verkümmerte Chilis und ne Handvoll Kartoffeln drinnen (plus sehr viel Obst was nicht so Suppengeeignet schien) und dachte "joa heute sind ja fast 15 Grad weniger als Sonntag, ist also Suppenwetter".

Kein wirkliches Rezept, mehr so frei Schnauze. Noch ein bissl Koriander von der Fensterbank und Kokosmilch aus der Dose und es schmeckt sehr lecker

Das Topping ist Schwarzbrot aus der Dose und ne Frühlingszwiebel.

Caught Nightborn (2026) last night in a fully empty cinema. Had a good time though!

Rupert Grint is kinda miscast in this imho. His character really is unnecessary in this movie, because while it feels like they wanted to set up a whole "cultural differeces re: baby rearing" vibe between him and his finnish wife, that doesn't really work for me and I think having her be a single mom having to come to terms with this monstrous baby (and what its monstrousness means about herself) would have been more interesting without his bland face lurking around every corner.

Is the implication that the mother is >!a troll baby, too?!<If so, did they just force her to be a vegetarian for all her life and that defeated the urges and finally made her more "normal"?

Rebellion, romance and some utterly lovely cinematography in "The Horseman on the Roof" (1995), which is set during a 1832 Cholera outbreak in France

Harvest (2024) - A visually stunning drama that unfolds across the 7 days surrounding the harvest festival of a small scottish village some time in the 18th century

Starring Caleb Landry Jones and Harry Melling, this piece was one of my favourite cinema watches last year, and I just really felt like rewatching it today for some reason!

It's honestly even more depressing than I remembered, but in a really breathtaking way.

The strange beauty of Siren/Forbidden Siren (2006)

Caught this for the first time this week and really loved it. Considering it's an adaption, and how exactly it goes about that, I understand why audience weren't a big fan, but personally, for me? I thought it had great vibes and a good enough story to pull you along.
