I had to study for HACCP test, and I did study it really well. But in between I also had time to watch some movies which I borrowed from the library. They're pretty old movies, but interesting to watch. I especially liked the one on anger management. I mean, the title is really totally boring. It's not like some red velvet cake, just a plain butter cake. But somehow it caught my eye anyways.
It's about this guy (Adam Sandler) who has an implosive anger problem..he swallows his anger whenever it comes about instead of letting it out, which makes him kinda like a time bomb because you never know when enough is enough. So, his girlfriend seeks the help of a famous doctor who sets up a string of comedic events to cure his anger problem. Of course, everything goes well (like most movies) and he gets cured in the end. In spite of the predictable outcome, I like this movie because it recognises that silence or seeming peace on the outside does not guarantee that there is no turmoil brewing inside a person.
I also got a book on bread which I have just started reading. The way the chef works the dough is really interesting. He doesn't keep putting flour to knead it into a smooth ball. Instead he just hits and folds the dough until it develops enough gluten to form a smooth dough. He also shows how to fold the dough inwards to make layers and give the dough more strength in the structure yet without making the dough too tough. Will continue reading after tomorrow's test!
