My Cookie!

Mondays and Tuesdays. Man, they are some tough days to get it together. We thought that we would be slick and crock pot a pork shoulder to make pulled pork but even with it being in for 8 hours it didn’t quite shred the way we wanted it to do. So we kept it going for another few hours and took a family walk to Weatherlaines for dinner. Monday night’s they have a discounted menu and it was nice to walk with the kids to the restaurant. We’ll be having pulled pork for the foreseeable future anyway.

At dinner Andrew was cute and sweet. He was articulate and clear with the waitress. After dinner he got a cookie, part of his kids meal, and shared it with everyone. He even shared it with Eva, who had her own cookie. He was also very sweet with the people next to us.

I didn’t know what they were called. Now I know. It is a great topic for this month’s Stream Team Alert. The Stream Team Alert is a writing prompt for members of the Netflix Stream Team. It seems like each month the alert is perfectly timed for what is happening in my life. Last month with those fun kids shows and then this month with the Shelfies. The reason that this means something for me is the show Longmire.

Ever since the show Longmire debuted on A&E I wanted to watch it. But, with one thing or another happening I just never started. This month before I got my writing prompt I watched the first five episodes. I’m really enjoying it and am excited to learn that Netflix picked up the show and did a fourth season. The main reason that I wanted to watch the show was for Katee Sackoff. I binged on Battlestar Galactica a year ago and wanted to watch everything that she was a part of. So far the show is interesting, the characters are compelling and their appears to be an overarching mystery around Walt, our main character. I also like the performance given by Lou Diamond Phillips. Continue reading Take those Shows Down off Your Shelfie #StreamTeam
