See the top? Now look WAY WAY over it...

I was a fan of Project Runway as long as I could fast forward through the bits where they bitched about each other. But the remake on Prime with Heidi and Tim turned out not to be palatable (and wasn't renewed - validation!).

I love the Great British Baking Show and, of course the Sewing Bee but today I found The Big Flower Fight on Netflix.

OMG It's like a parody - and not a good one - of all competition shows. I should have gleaned a clue with the name 'Fight' in the title. But, seriously, it you were teaching a class in how to do a competition show and you started of with a list of all the things not to do, you'd have this show. It makes me want to go back and watch more of that Heidi and Tim mess.

I did go out and pick up my sandwich. I love how this place does it. Order online. Then go. You get a text when it's ready. You don't even have to go inside. They hand over the bag of your goods and off you go.I also got a loaf of their very excellent rye bread.

I bought a bigger chromebook. I wanted a 15" one but I didn't want to spend the money. I finally found several that would do the trick and set up a bot (Keepa) to tell me when one of them got below $200. Well, it happened today. It's a refurb from Amazon Warehouse. The description says blemishes on the sides. If it's too banged up, back it goes but I've never had any problem with Amazon Warehouse stuff and refurb, to me, just means it passed QA twice and I get it cheap. It will be here Monday.

Yesterday I made a batch of twice baked potatoes. I had one for dinner last night. YUM. The rest went into the freezer.

Today I need to make some more breakfast biscuits. Since I have no plans to finish this stupid flower show, I think I'll just whip those biscuits up now.

The husband is a fan of the new PR with Christian and Karlie (which is on Hulu). Said it seemed much more like the early seasons of PR, in a good way.

I tried that early on when I had cable channels and didn't hook on but I didn't realize it was on Hulu... maybe I'll try it again.

I watched one episode of the Flower Flight, and could just not bring myself to care. And this is as someone who gobbled Project Runway AND the spin-off, and GBBS of course, and more recently the “great british throw-down” which is about pottery.

I guess I just don’t love flower arranging, which is fine, it’s just something I did not know about myself. 😂

I did watch the new Heidi and Tim show, Heidi made it difficult running around acting like a bimbo all the time. I do like the new PR with Christian Siriano. I also watched the Flower Fight show, it was different to say the least. Then I discovered a glass blowing competition on Netflix and watched that too.

I hope that the Great British Baking show will be back with more new seasons as I really do love that one.

Sorry for rambling, give my love to Biggie. : )

Biggie says thanks and I say the more GBBS, the better!
