This gathering of HHWers was for a wonderful meal at the Brooklyn Diner.




Great photos, Mr. B.!  Jason does indeed look faboo!

What is that pie-like thing on the far right? A pie with a huge amount of meringue on the top? Yummy.

Good afternoon all.

I took myself a little nap because nothing tires a gal out like being sleep tested!   ;D

Another lost day as far as getting any thing done around the house.  That's ok.  I have plenty of time to start the painting.  I'm just going to take it easy today and watch some movies.

Thanks for telling me about your experence, DR Jason.  Maybe I don't stop breathing.  I just thought it was funny that the tech told me everything else but when I asked that question, he wouldn't say.

I was lucky that I had such a nice Tech.  He explained what everything was for as he was putting it on me and he did answer most of my questions.  He told me he had two daughters and a cat and we chatted about my dogs.  

It is a bit scary to think that you might stop breathing durning your sleep.

DR Barnum, I loved your pictures.  I wish I could have been there as well.  Until everything settles down and I know I have a job, maybe I will be able to plan a vacation to NYC.  I think I need some time away with some good friends.  

One thing for sure I know that even if I have my job there won't be any raises this year.  Sigh.

I seem to be catching the drift that there might be some sort of gathering in September.  I'll just have to hope that I can make it at this point.  I wish I had the money to give towards the play as well but again, until I know for sure if I have a job, I have to cut my spending.  It's hard getting used to not having so much extra money like I did when Mom was alive.  

I've already had a couple of close calls of being out of funds at the bank.  

I'm very aware of the water running or a light that's on now.  You learn quick that is way of spending money as well.  ;)

Didn't finish "Mame" last night.  However, while Ms. Ball is obviously miscast and Ms. Arthur looks horrid, it's a beautifully shot film.  "Loving You" is now one of my most favorite Jerry Herman songs.  I'm sure I'm totally in the minority with my review.

Today is Tech Day #1 for Beauty and the Beast lots of hurry up and wait and standing around.  I do enjoy this day, I hope it won't dissapoint.  Last night, the castle jumped the track and was slightly damaged.  I think by the end of the night, they fixed it, I hope it holds up today (and for the next 3 weeks for that matter).

Saturday greetings!  On my way to work yesterday, I got to coughing so hard I almost turned around and headed back home.  Today, I visited my doctor for the second time this week and was given a shot of Kenalog and yet another allergy med.  At least he says I don't have pneumonia.

DR Danise - you sound like a very cooperative sleep-study patient.  Hope the results are conclusive and helpful.  Glad you enjoyed the postcard of "our" corner!

I have no photos as exciting and as glamorous as Barnum and the HHWs.  I hope Mike got the Badge Number of those two officers.

Here I am in Vegas.  Looking at this photo, maybe I shoud tell everyone that I ran into Stockard Channing.

Well, you've read the notes, the notes became you, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - lateness becomes them, too, if you can believe it.

Some cows are already home:



Some are reluctant:



Other are searching for the BRAIN

Looking at the picture of the desserts makes my mouth water and for whatever reason I was wondering if anyone here has ever had Baked Alaska or a Floating Island?  I've read about them in books but have never had either.

It's 94 degrees and feels much hotter.  I think I shall put off mowing the back yard until tonight when it cools off.  If it doesn't rain.

...was wondering if anyone here has ever had Baked Alaska

It was a regular festive dessert on a few ships I sailed.

When we returned home Monday evening, there was a package here that DH Richard said was a present for me.  He'd ordered it from one of the vendors at the ALA exhibits and it's now hanging between the bookcases in our breakfast room:

I have had Baked Alaska.  Normally I'm not a fan of them, however, I found the ones on our cruise very tasty.  One of our friends had never seen a Baked Alaska & was looking forward to the experience.  She was very disappointed they weren't set on fire at the table.

Baked Alaska is served straight from the oven to the table.

The flaming dish is called Bombe Alaska.

Continued ***HEALING VIBES*** to DR MBarnum's mother

and thanks, DR MBarnum, for those fabulous NYC photos!

DR Danise, thanks for sharing your sleep study experience.  Here's hoping the doctors can review the results and get you some help!
And ***JOB VIBES*** for you!

Continued ***LEASE-SIGNING VIBES*** to DR elmore3003

DR DearReaderLaura - thanks for the lovely photographs!

My concert last night was a great success.  The Red Rock Center for the Arts is a fabulous venue, lovingly and beautifully restored.  The seating capacity is 275, and we had at least 300 people show up.  It went very well, and I was pleased.  No word yet on exactly how much we raised, but estimated to be in the $4,000 - $5,000 range!  Wish we could do it again and send the proceeds to The Brain seed money!

The Holland America site shows baked Alaska with flames, and without.  I have seen it served with flames and called baked Alaska-not that it makes it correct.

In fact, Bomb Alaska makes sense.  There wasn't any rum on our baked Alaska.   Can you taste the rum after it has been burned off?

"A variation called Bombe Alaska calls for some dark rum to be splashed over the Baked Alaska. Lights are then turned down and the whole dessert is flambéd while being served.
