Summer Fridays are about fun, fewer deadlines, more people on vacation, and often shorter workdays lead to earlier happy hours. Let's face it, we need a little extra time to prepare for big weekends! Today we highlight how to be a good plus-one, which can be expanded to mean a good; friend, spouse, coach, and any other relationship where you can highlight being a number 2. More fun follows with a movie scene cookbook and recipes from movies you can make at home. The history of the television set will surprise you and a made-up iMessage response time image. A great cover from Ben Folds and wise words from Rick Ruben finish us off.

Scrouging gives us recipes to make some of the most unpalatable foods from our favorite movies, including The Breakfast Club's Pixy Stix sandwich. It has been described as a late-night snack attack cookbook. Chef, Matty Matheson, divides the book into categories like breakfast, appetizers, and snacks. Not all recipes are unpalatable, like Craig Jones' Cereal with water (Pictured below). The book includes Mrs. Kim's coveted "ram-don" dish from the movie Parasite. The cookbook will entertain any movie buff because each recipe contains a blurb from the movie it was taken from. Scrounging is now available for $38 on A24's website.
