Movie Review: Wonder Woman

The older I get (I said frailly, balancing on my cane), the less inclined I am to go see a movie with a bunch of other loud, noisy young’uns people. Because part of what ruined Wonder Woman for me (one of the only things, actually) was people talking through it and after it, about it. […]

Series: Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 1 Review WITH SPOILERS

  Last night at 9 pm EST Game of Thrones Season 6 Episode 1 premiered on HBO, and by morning, Kenyans all over the interwebs were already spoiling it. I’m joining that legion but with a spoiler alert, which is what civil humans do. A few things that were left hanging from the close of […]

Food: Sugarcane

As soon as I walked into Sugarcane, of course the song that came to mind was Shaggy’s she loves the taste of my suuuugaaarcane. Hehe. Sugarcane is the new Caribbean influenced food spot at Garden City Mall on Thika Road. They don’t have tea on the menu, but of course, being me, I still asked […]
