Trader Giotto's Organic Pesto Pizza with Tomatoes & Broccoli [/] This is a medium cheese pizza with tomato slices and chopped up broccoli. I guess you need to cook a bit longer than indicated or it eat it quickly -- the first slice was crispy but the other two started getting less crispy more soggy. Still, it's healthy and tastes good.
Podcast - The Veteran Wargamer (2016) [/] A podcast mostly about miniatures wargaming, historical and to a lesser extent fantasy and science fiction. Also related gaming topics (e.g., latest episode is wargaming ethics roundtable). Conversational and the host has a good voice. But miniature gaming is not really my interest.
Movie - Palmer (2021) [/] An AppleTV+ film. Former college football star Eddie Palmer (Justin Timberlake) is out of prison after a decade and tries to rebuild his life. Through happenstance he ends up having to take care of Sam Burgette (Ryder Allen), a precocious elementary school kid who takes a liking to Palmer. But then Sam's well-meaning but drug addict mom Shelly (Juno Temple) returns and Palmer realizes he doesn't want Sam to go back to that kind of home life... It's a slow-paced drama with good acting but you have to be in the mood for this kind of fare.
