the Black Cauldron (
Disney+) - A mid 80 s effort from the house of mouse, it s a traditional fantasy yarn in which the young farmhand Taran dreams of heroic adventure. Be careful what you wish for however, as he finds himself guardian of an oracle pig named Hen Wen, and when the villainous Horned King seeks out the oinker in order to locate the wearabouts of the titular Black Cauldron (housing the soul of an evil king, it can be used to summon an army of the undead), Taran finds himself thrust into the adventure he s always wanted.

A year ago this week my kids’ school shut down for Covid “at least through Spring Break.” I guess they were technically right, I just didn’t expect it to be Spring Break 2021
In the last 12 months, parents everywhere––even celeb parents––have juggled working, teaching virtual school, and parenting full-time simultaneously.
