MOONLIGHT has also made it through round one & will be given a second chance.

I was disappointed - it wasn't "bad", it just wasn't really "good". Are you happy with what seems to be Ghost Whisperer's turning darker?

I want to sing some new songs, or old favorites - time for a change.

Is someone ringing a bell?  ;D

Yes, over and over again.  Keith left and he wants out on his deck.  I have to go pick up acorns, branches & leaves first.

Jane - your family was remembered in NYC.

I went up to a guy with his pooch to verify that, yes indeed, he was a Bernese Mountain Dog (he meaning "animal", not "guy").

I also partook of same: Thanks Jose.
I also like to add a constructive criticism to any critical evaluation, but I can find no fault with the cookie, so I am speechless: Damn Jose.

No - said dog was moving in ever tightening circles about to decorate the sidewalk- most undignified!

We never watched GHOST WHISPERER.  I'm not sure MOONLIGHT will make it through round two.  I liked the two leads very much.

DB- ;D

I seem to be on a roll & have more to come, in the way of photos.  

When we were in Portland Bryan whipped us up a little dinner from a few items he just happened to have in the kitchen.  

I should have taken the photos before we ate half the food & while they looked much prettier.

Waiting for us when we walked in, very hungry not having eaten much all day.

We loved Bryan's peanut sauce so much he bottled some for us to take home.

Next came fava bean & eggplant appetizers.  He makes batches of the eggplant & keeps it in the freezer.  I need to do this-just delicious.  The fava beans were in the frying pan when we walked in.

Hi, there, good morning, gang.

My sister rikki walked in the door about 7:15 this morning, to squeals of delight from her little dawg! They are both upstairs now, having a nap.

I hope you told her not to lose that number, she don't wanna call nobody else.

Just wanted to say, before I drive Dixie Bell off to the vet (we're hoping it's merely her arthritis kicking in with the season's change),  that I will be, as of 5pm Wednesday -  - - A BORDERS ASSOCIATE!

Don't know yet what I'm going to do about the restaurant; I'll cross that bridge tomorrow, after all, tomorrow is another day.

A-ha!  Someone accused me of the same thing when I directed SOUTH PACIFIC, DR derBRUCER....but I had carefully purchased a 48-star flag....he hadn't bothered to count, just assumed....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

My father made Brigadier General in the few months between Alaska and Hawaii (or is it Hawaii and Alaska), so I have a 49 star flag that the US Government gave him to commemorate the occasion.  It's hanging in Betsy's sewing room (correctly, I might add--stars on left, which seems to confound most people).

I forgot to mention Bryan made the ravioli pasta.

Last came the orange, ricotta mascarpone Cannelloni.  He didn't make the shells, just about the only thing he didn't make from scratch.  He sprinkled a vanilla bean chocolate on top, very yummy.

Jose, dinners cooked by Bryan are always a special gourmet treat.

JMK-How cool to have that flag.

Well, I think I'm going to attempt to head out for bit.  Otherwise, I know I'll end up cooped up all day here in the apartment.

I'm home, safe and sound, after one of the most nightmarish pre-flight mornings I've ever had.  I go into details in the notes (part one written on the plane), but the Reader's Digest version is - many hainsies/kimlets talking about their flights.  My car was on time and took me directly to LaGuardia and got there in an astonishing twenty minutes.  I got through security, but something didn't feel right.  The gates looked completely different than I'd ever seen.  I finally went up to an agent and said I thought I was in the wrong terminal or gate area.  She looked at me e-ticket and said I wasn't in the wrong terminal or gate area, I was in the wrong airport!  Yes, I had LaGuardia on the Brain, but was supposed to be in Newark.  I think most who know me know I'm a very nervous flyer who likes to be at the airport a minimum of two hours early, and thank heaven for that.  At 5:05 I got in a cab, great driver, and she got me to Newark in thirty-five minutes, still an hour before flight.  I got through security (they did a bag check - funny, they didn't at LaGuardia) but it went fast and I was to the gate fifteen minutes before boarding, but a complete wreck.  After that, everything was fine.
