Unsolicited thoughts on Barbie:
I wish it wasn’t as focused on Ken. He, as a character, could have learned the same stories without spending a whole half of the movie following him. Have him be a little side kick. Not because I feel bad for his portrayal- I genuinely don’t care. I was there for Barbie gorl, not Beach guy.

Also- the pacing was weird.

Borscht recipe-

Fun fact: In Slavic languages, borscht is pronounced borsch- no T. The spelling of the word with the 'T" comes from the Yiddish pronunciation.
