I've just had some very sad news.  Sherlock's brother has died.  This was the puppy we originally wanted & had Sherlock not had a blue eye he would have been ours.  By the time we walked away with Sherlock I was very torn between the two & had we been offered this brother we might now have two dogs. 

The dogs liver was totally gone and they don't know what caused it.  The good thing for us is this isn't genetic.

I'm in shock & very sad.  We spent a lot of time with this pup and the rest of Sherlock's siblings.

I grew up eating oxtail stew and it was fantastic.  I only made it once & learned what happens if you use too much barley. ;D
No barley in my recipe. Just onions, red wine, seasonings, garlic and shallots. And oxtail.



Why didn't you just drink the wine and call it good?
That was good, too.

That's a shock. How old is Sherlock?

I feel terrible for the guy who had him.  Like us he took his dog everywhere with him.  I just found out Sherlock's brother won best of breed at a show last week.  I hope that give the owner comfort.  Our breeder said he will take one of the six week old pups from the litter Sherlock's sister had six weeks ago.  I hope having a nephew helps.  I tend to wait a year in between dogs.

Juliana totally flaked.  She was supposed to call yesterday and confirm, didn't, and then I left her a message this morning, which she conveniently didn't listen to.  I was trying to be nice and show her this movie she was dying to see - and now she can go see it elsewhere and I'll watch it again (along with the other two films) at me leisure.

Hi Ginny. Is it easy for your mother to visit your aunt any time she wants?

Yes and no, DR Jane.  It's easy because their buildings are connected so you can get from Mom's apartment to my aunt's room without going outside.  It's difficult because it's a long walk, plus my mother has a fair amount of anxiety about my aunt's condition.

I got it.  Thank you again.  I have shared all your info with Craig.  I'll write more tomorrow.  I'm going to distract myself with some tv.

I'm glad she can get to her sister without going outside.  Can she get a motorized car instead of walking?

Thank you for your post regarding Teej, Sherlock's brother.

Mom thought she wanted a motorized scooter, but her apartment is small and it would take up a lot of room.  She does have a walker with wheels that helps a lot.  There are places to sit down along the way, too.

Please send vibes and/or prayers for Aunt Pearl, who turned 106 last month. She was moved into hospice care after falling again.

The following is a very funny clip in which Stephen Colbert interviews someone who is trying to take food beyond what Colbert calls "the missionary positions of cuisine," namely boiling, baking and frying.

Remember my kvetching last night about Dayton Opera ticket prices?  One of my book group friends sings in the chorus and offered Richard and me the 2 free tickets she gets for the dress rehearsal!

Somehow I failed to mention that tonight was opening night for The Wedding Singer at the Vixter's school - she plays assorted wedding guests, one of the "Losers at Table 9" , an old lady in the shopping mall and the Cyndi Lauper  impersonator.

I must admit I was not expecting much from this show and I was taken totally by surprise by how much fun it was
