So you bought a whole roasted duck from an asian grocery. What do you do with the leftover bones? Make stock!

We went and saw the Mortal Kombat II film on opening day and it was a fun romp through Outrealm!
Full spoilers ahead.

Continuing my Mortal Kombat kick, I've been playing Mortal Kombat 1 on Nintendo Switch 2, as Mileena, of course.

We found ourselves at the Northwest Trek Wildlife Park, a place I weirdly didn't even know existed until recently. It has both wildlife and more traditional zoo settings.

Who doesn't like a margarita? I really like the version from Liquid Intelligence, and over the years this is the version I've developed from that base.

I’ve been sitting on these errata packs for Vantage for a bit now, mainly because I was too lazy to sort them into the box. Vantage is a massive game and the box weighs like twelve pounds. It’s not as heavy as say… Gloomhaven, but the replayability of the game is vast. If you’ve never […]
The other day I was making Pailin Chongchitnant’s duck curry and one of the steps is to make a duck stock. She has a basic method on her recipe on how to do that but this is what I did: After carving your duck for your meal, you’ll want any leftover bones including the wings, […]
Who doesn’t love an asian supermarket? In 2024, T&T, a major Canadian grocer with a Taiwanese focus opened in Bellevue. That location is huge and was absolutely slammed for a long while after opening. Anyways, they opened a second, smaller location in Lynnwood so we went to check it out. Both locations are about equivalent […]
We went and saw the Mortal Kombat II film on opening day and it was a fun romp through Outrealm! The movie is not high art, it’s in fact really corny at times but if you like the games and lore then you’ll enjoy this. The first movie really was focused on a character named […]

It’s one of four accredited zoos in Washington state, along with Woodland Park, the Seattle Aquarium and also Point Defiance. This isn’t really a typical zoo though, as it focuses […]
Generally I had a good time with Mortal Kombat 1. I think the name is horrible though, since this is actually Mortal Kombat 12, technically. lol. I’m playing on Switch 2 but this is actually a Switch 1 game. Performance wise it’s not in a bad spot and it runs better on Switch 2 hardware, […]
