I like mac and cheese most anyway you prepare it. There’s a barbecue joint here that mixes in burnt ends (the crusty part of smoked brisket) that’s delicious.

I’m just not sure about asparagus in mac and cheese. Or kale.

That mac and cheese with burnt ends sounds like the greatest.

Otherwise-wise, I go for the multi-cheese varieties these days. But as long as it isn't too milky/runny, I'm happy with whatever kind of cheese is used.

Always loved it when my mother made it, and her unique thing back in the day was adding small slices or dices of canned tomatoes to it. In fact, I never knew it any other way until I left home. I do need to make it that way sometime to see what it tastes like to me now.

We had to relent and turn the heat on for a little while last night, and again this morning.

Gray day, thus far.

Having coffee.

Listening to Andrew Rannells and Josh Gad talking to Mika about the upcoming Broadway musical "Guteberg" on "Morning Joe."

They were having way too much fun for this time of day.  Have only been up 15 minutes and am still groggy.

Thursday afternoon greetings!  We were supposed to be on our way today to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, for our niece Lauren’s wedding tomorrow.  However, Richard’s stomach misbehaved last night and we decided to stay home just in time for me to cancel the hotel reservation.  He’s somewhat better today, but I think we made the right decision.

I had a great morning. Access-a-Ride arrived 30 minutes early, and I was both surprised and unprepared. By the time I got in the car, it was the time he was due: 9:45. It took 15 minutes to get to East 95th Street, so I arrived at my appointment an hour earlier than scheduled. I was seen almost immediately. So, I saw Dr Saltzman, the gastroenterologist, answered all her questions, told her the reasons I was seeing her, and when I shut up, she said "You had a stomach virus." She wants me to have a couple of tests, and that was it. I liked her very much.

When I left the office, it was fifteen minutes before my scheduled appointment time, meaning I had 75 minutes before Access-a-Ride was scheduled to pick me up. I called them and fifteen minutes later, a car arrived and took me to Staples, where I scanned two scores. I was home by 11:30.

What a glorious Thursday afternoon in June:  It has been raining buckets.  And the air smells so incredibly fresh and clean!  It reminded me of storms we used to have when i lived upstate.  It would be hot as blazes in the summer, and then the blue skies would darken with clouds and a tremendous rainfall would ensue.  Afterward, the skies cleared and the world seemed fresh and new.

Title: Re: OTHERWISE-WISE
Post by: Ron Pulliam on June 22, 2023, 02:46:17 PM
I had a marvelous nap, too.  And dreamed a dream that reminded me of another dream I had YEARS ago.  What I best remember is that the dream location was an amalgam of Johnston and Aaron's Creek VA (where my dad's family lived and where he and my mom lived for a few years until they moved here).

Don't recall any other particulars, but i really enjoyed knowing the locale.

I have also managed to watch two films today:

One was "The Celluloid Closet" which aired on TCM last night.

The other is "The Runaway Bus", a 1954 British film starring Frankie Howerd, Margaret Rutherford and Petula Clark.  It's a comedy about British fog halting air flights at Heathrow in London, a bus used to transport passengers to remote airports where the fog wasnt bad, and a heist of gold bullion from the airport using the "boot" of that bus to hold it.

It's a bit of fun.

Wasn't the movie supposed to be good?  I never saw it, so I don't know.

I book was fantastic.  I passed on the movie as I did not want to watch the elephant be abused, even if it was fake.

I think I finished season 1 of "Beyond Paradise".  There are only six episodes, and I don't believe there will be more until Season 2.

That said, I went to "Death in Paradise" and started with Season 3, which is where DI Humphrey Goodman joined the cast...in episode 1, no less. 

Have watched two of those episodes and they are very good, indeed.  I love it when I discover that a show I have been avoiding on PBS for many years is really worthy of my time and interest.

One is that Christine Estabrook read the part of the Baker's Wife for the first reading at Playwrights Horizons and "how strange it was to be a non-singer starring in a new musical."

If I remember her episode, they weren't concerned at that first reading that she couldn't sing, because Stephen Sondheim was performing all the songs...they just wanted someone who was a good actor to act the script.

That makes sense. :)

We all know that Kim Crosby and Robert Westenberg met during the show, fell in love and got married...they're still married and have had three kids!

They mention in their episode that they were both with other people when they first met.

I don't think they left their significant others to be with each other, because...

The other real interesting thing that I learned is that Christine Estabrook and Robert Westenberg used to be married! :o

She talked about how she had done that original reading but that Robert wasn't involved in the show until the Broadway production, so they never worked together...they both were involved in the show, but at different times.

Who knew??
Title: Re: OTHERWISE-WISE
Post by: George on June 23, 2023, 12:31:05 AM
I then looked up both Christine Estabrook and Robert Westenberg and no where (at least, where I looked) did it mention that they had been married to each other...not on IBDB, nor IMDb.

Huh. :-\

Christine Estabrook's episode was the shortest so far (only 14 or 15 minutes, depending on which podcast provider you get it from...different ads mean different times).
Title: Re: OTHERWISE-WISE
Post by: George on June 23, 2023, 12:34:09 AM
But there were a lot of "I don't remember"s in both podcasts. ;D

I don't know how many episodes there will be, but there are 13, so far.
Title: Re: OTHERWISE-WISE
Post by: George on June 23, 2023, 12:39:05 AM
It's funny (strange) but episode 11 from June 7, 2023 is Joanna Merlin and John Lyons, then episode 12 from June 14, 2023 is Jeff Blumenkrantz, and then episode 11 (again??) from June 21, 2023 is Kim Crosby and Robert Westenberg.

It's been more than two days and this hasn't been corrected. ::)
Title: Re: OTHERWISE-WISE

I wonder if it will be...or if they won't fix it until the next episode.
Title: Re: OTHERWISE-WISE
Post by: George on June 23, 2023, 12:43:10 AM
I guess I'll find out eventually.
Title: Re: OTHERWISE-WISE

I don't think it's been mentioned here, yet, but they've announced that:

Queen Latifah and Billy Crystal are among the 2023 Kennedy Center honorees (https://www.npr.org/2023/06/22/1183483424/2023-kennedy-center-honors)

The award for lifetime artistic achievement will recognize actor and comedian Billy Crystal; celebrated soprano Renée Fleming; singer-songwriter and Bee Gees band member Barry Gibb; actress, singer and rapper Queen Latifah; and singer Dionne Warwick.

And now they can be read.
