Thank you.

Yes. One of the reasons it took so long. It was quite a learning experience.

It was the caramel that gave me trouble. I had to redo it.

I've also been doing fixes on tracks all day, too. We may do another one or two tonight, but I think we'll be able to finish it all up by Monday morning, so that's good. I've written fifteen new pages so far and that's probably enough, but I may do another page or two before bed. I also finessed and futzed a huge amount on the first five pages I'd already written, so it's really like doing twenty pages, which is a great first day. In fact, I finished chapter one and have written the first part of chapter two.

I’m enjoying the singer and her pianist. So far.

That croquembouche is lovely, Laura. Did you enjoy the flavor? Or just the challenge?

I’ve tried a thing or two that was so exhausting I just served it to others without more than a taste.

Good night, all.

Wow, what a lot of work but worth it.

I made two loaves of beer bread, one with cheddar and garlic and one that is gluten free - using 1-1 gluten free flour and gluten free beer. I have a feeling that is not going to turn out well. But we'll see.

Finished with Janacek's Jenufa - some terrific moments, but not my favorite of his thus far at least.

Now listening to Catalani's La Wally. Not my cuppa so far, but I know there's some really famous thing from it, so I'll keep on going.

I gotta tell you.

bk · « **Reply #136 on:** January 01, 2021, 10:30:28 PM »

I don't think I'll get to any more pages tonight, due to having to write notes and needing to get to bed early for an early arising in the morning.

I saw The Makropulos Case live at the Met back in the day. I was not at the performance where the singer playing the lawyer fell from the bookcase ladder and died.

Ah, just got the bit hit from La Wally - the aria that was a major part of the film Diva - and it's really a beauty and I'm enjoying the rest, now that I'm used to its style.

singdaw · « **Reply #139 on:** January 01, 2021, 11:03:35 PM »

It's a beaut, all right!

A trip to the bathroom and back to the bed, and then I need almost five minutes to get my breath back

I went to my mom's today and we ate and played Phase 10 and I lost...not surprisingly.

Then, I came home and read a chapter of one of my books, and took a little nap. Then, I woke up and read another chapter, and now, I only have two chapters to finish my book!
