Gabe Thomas, Staff Writer

“Birds of Passage” is an indie film featuring a diverse cast of colorful characters. The film centers around the Wayuu community in central Mexico and their adventure into the drug market. The film is definitely a foreign film, with no English at all. All dialogue is in Spanish instead. While th...

Have you ever heard of cocoa, before? Well, let me be the first to tell you, that if you slap nut at the end of cocoa, it creates a wondrous combination of fruit, nut, and seed.

Spring is in the air, and that calls for two things: nice weather and good cooking. Since this is Indiana, the nice weather is tentative, but good cooking can be easily accomplished. The tasty spring recipe I decided to make does come from a cookbook I recently bought. I am not sure what it is ...

April 10, 2019
I am definitely one of those people who gets overly attached to movies aimed towards children, especially the ones I grew up watching.
