I Feel Sorry For the Writers of Disney’s ‘Wish’: A Review (With Spoilers)

            Okay, finally, I’m here. I’m going to talk about the writing.

Turning Stories to Food

Percy Jackson and the Chocolate Bomb (Turning Stories Into Food)

So, of course, when they announced that the Disney Plus Percy Jackson series was starting at Christmas I wanted to create a dish for the occasion.

Instead I decided to get it ready for near the end of the series, as a celebration of the full Series/Season 1.
