Besides introducing me to the brand of cookie called Pirates, my friend Bruce also directed me to follow Roger Ebert’s tweets. Glad I did, because not only is he a really interesting tweeter, with tons of opinions on everything (and not just film), but he also posted this excellent clip tonight, which I haven’t seen before.
I could probably spend weeks watching all the Wong Kar-Wai clips on Youtube.
It seems like I’ve been introduced to a lot of new desserts lately. For example, when my friend Bruce came to cover the Olympics, we managed to have him over for dinner and he brought with him (among other goodies) a bag of Pirate oatmeal peanut butter cookies. Never heard of them before – but in a short period of time I’ve realized they are highly addictive and, sadly for my waistline, readily available at Safeway.
