Chicken Enchiladas and Fucking Åmål

Hello Internet! 
Did you know that I am actually blonde? It's true, as a kid I had super blonde, super straight, long hair—every SoCal girls' dream right? I was too busy being weird to really use my attracting powers though. That is until I switched high schools and chopped it off and dyed it and became a person my mother warned me about. Nothing like realizing you're queer to switch things up, amiright? Worked out ok for Eilin and Agnes anyway. 

Er, but yeah, so I've been thinking about trying to go back to blonde to at least see it and I thought I could expedite the process by trying that "color out" stuff or whatever. Well it took all the color out of the sides but left the longer top slightly orange. These things happen. Sorry I fidget with it so much in the video, I needed a haircut.   -Syd

For the record - I LOVE syd's blond hair, it is so fricken cute.
Recipe! You will need: Chicken Broccoli (we liked adding a veggie, you don't have to) Corn Tortillas Enchilada sauce (you can make it from scratch too, but we're going for quick and easy for your date ;)  Cheese Hot sauce Vegetable Oil SOUR CREAM - don't forget the sour cream.
Cook the chicken and broccoli as the oven preheats (at about 400). Once they are done, you can shred the chicken, chop up the broccoli and combine them. Mix in some enchilada sauce.
Dip the tortillas into your bowl of still remaining sauce and fry them on a little bit of oil one by one.  Spread them out on the bottom of a casserole dish, fill in the middle with the chicken, and then add a top layer of tortilla. I like to do it this way, instead of rolling up individual tortillas, but to each his own.
Pour the rest of the sauce on top and sprinkle on lots of cheese. Put the dish in the oven for about ten minutes. Once it's done don't forget to add some hot sauce and sour cream to balance out the meal. Enjoy!
Fucking Amal / Show me Love (1998) Directed by Lucas Moodysson Trailer In the small town of Amal, Sweden, Agnes has just turned 16. She is very timid and basically a social outcast. Her parents decide to throw her a birthday party (with invitations and everything) even though she doesn't have any friends. Oh, and she is in love with Elin.
Elin is very popular, beautiful and rebellious. She likes to go to raves and make out with boys. She is also always talking about how terribly bored she is with everything. There seems to be something missing in her life. In one of her bouts of boredom, Elin drags her sister, Jessica, to go to Agnes' birthday party instead of their friend's house party. That night and the next few days will give you lots of feelings. Not all good, but not all bad. Elin realizes what it is she's been missing, as well as how hard it is to have it, and Agnes wishes she didn't have to wait so long for things to get better. 
This movie does a great job of showing genuine teenage angst, as well as the struggle for kids to fit in with their peers but also into their own selves. I also enjoyed that the characters were played by actors who are actually that age and not by 25 year olds. (Sidenote: it is not all angst, there are some pretty funny parts.)
Queer Rating: 5 enchiladas out of 10 for both of us.
General Rating: 6/10 enchiladas.
Also, one of my favorite scenes is at the very end when Elin and Agnes have a really cute and awesome conversation about chocolate milk. It's so true!  See y'all next week! -Lore
