I started to watch a movie on Netflix last night, Let It Snow, but after thirty minutes I realized I had no urge to continue wasting another hour and turned it off. I played with the cats for a bit and went t bed at 8:00.

I slept well until some time around 12:30. I was awake for a couple of hours, dealing with my two bedmates Annabelle and Stella and maybe trying too hard to get back to sleep. Then I had a couple of strange dreams: I was working at Goodspeed, my show had opened, and I had to clear out of my room so the next production could come in. In the second, I was not only seeing a production of the World War I play Journey's End, but I seemed as well to be in World War I.

I woke up super early, laid there for a while, went back to sleep and woke up again at more my normal time, laid there for a bit then fell back to sleep again, and finally woke up way late. Amazingly, the cat laid there beside me the whole time and let me get away with it.

TOD:

My most favorite Italian dish, at the moment, is Spaghetti Carbonara.  The first time i had it was in Naples, Italy.  I had it many times there.  That was in the mid-70s.

I later found it on the menu at a now-closed Berkeley CA restaurant called Venezia.  I took a chance on it, and was richly rewarded.  I went there many times before their doors closed.

I love eggplant parmesan and tortellini a la Bolognese.  I love a wonderful antipasti bar with many different delights upon it.

The best pizzas I ever had were in Italy.  In Vicenza, I discovered the wonders of calzone, filled with prosciutto (ham), funghi (mushrooms) and formaggio (cheese).

In Naples, I once had a meal at the birthplace of the Pizza Margherita.  Sheer heaven.  The pizzeria is still intact and open, and the Margherita is its claim to fame because they invented it for a queen (back when Naples was a kingdom).  Another favorite is the pizza Quattro Stagione (four seasons).  One quarter prosciutto, one quarter funghi, one quarter olive nero (black olives), and one quarter carciofi (artichokes).  My mouth waters just typing the words.

I love Italian food in general, but those are my very favorite dishes.

Dracula was fun, but kind of all over the place as to whether it was to be played seriously or for laughs. And everyone’s accents were distracting. It’s amazing how accents can make or break something, and I don’t think a single one of these people had the skill for it. I think that if a cast isn’t up to it, they should just leave well enough alone and concentrate on speaking clearly, letting their character be understood, and get on with it.

Worst news byte I saw on TV yesterday was a comment by Matt Gaetz (Republicon no-goodnik from Florida) who expressed total disguast at Jim Jordan's worst showing in the voting for Speaker of the House.  Gaetz claimed that Jordan was the "most popular" representative in Congress and those not supporting him were undermining the GOP.

It's obvious that Gaetz and his MAGAt cohorts have an over-exaggerated sense of their importance and popularity.   

Gaetz brought down Kevin McCarthy (the weak and pitiful) hoping to exalt Jim Jordan (the worst example of traitor in Congress).

They portrayed the play faithfully, within their limits. It’s a 60-seat black box, basically, though the stage size ain’t bad, but they needed a little more…something…for a couple of missing special effects. What they did was okay, but a few bits got cheated.

The greatest hilarity, though, was at the top when the curtain wouldn’t open. First, God bless ‘em for even having a curtain, and using it. It was wonderful to walk in and see a closed curtain. I made it clear to them that that was really appreciated, and in turn they seemed grateful for the feedback. But apparently when they closed it the last time before opening the house, it got locked up somehow, resulting in “curtain” being 20 minutes late. Ah, live theeder.

TOD Part II:

In Italy, all the dishes with Mozzarella were prepared using Mozzarella di Bufala (buffalo).  Of course, the animal is a different kind of buffalo than our western version. 

And I used to buy smoked mozzarella in a local store and cut it up over a steaming hot plate of spaghetti bolognese.  OOF-TAH!

There were always pieces for my kitties, as well, and they LOVED it.

In Italy, I had a lasagna in the restaurant next to the villa we were staying in. The noodles were paper thin and handmade. Slivers of porcini mushrooms filled in between and there was more than a little brown butter to keep it moist. It barely stood an invh tall, despite seven or so layers. It was so spectacular that I didn’t want to share any. I did. But I wasn’t too happy about it.

Good Morning - my apologies for my very E&T-ness this week.  Working, doing a show, etc... used to seem easy.  The boys and I did get to the dog park a few times this week and they had a great time.  DD JP is quite the fetch-er.  I had no idea.  It's fun to watch them run and to interact with other dogs.  They were quite the welcoming committee yesterday in the time we were there.  Such the gentlemen.  Two more performances of Pippin, I really do not like the revised version (I think I've said that) especially the orchestration.  But, that is what we have now.  Pippin ends on Sunday and we go right into Something Rotten for a week.  In the meantime, I'm trying to learn my lines for White Christmas and feeling very disconnected from that production. But hey - they cast me with my conflicts.... 

I should go see a community theatre production of Seussical today as my BFF is the Sour Kangaroo.  But the morivation isn't there.  Hard to me motivated to go see as show when you're doing a show.  We'll see if I get there.

I'm not sure why you would have had to share.  It was kind of you to do so.

When you travel with food lovers, it’s practically a given.

I suppose.  I travel with Keith.  If he shares something delicious I know he is being very kind ;D

When I was in my early 20's I briefly dated a guy who would bring me to his folks' house for Sunday dinners.   His mom.made manicotti that was so light and delicate it practically floated above the plate. That, together with her homemade sauce ( which they persisted in calling "gravy") still lives on in my memory more than 40 years later


Yum, but gravy-lol

A guy I know from my Navy days -- a New Jersey native named Lenny Gatto -- wrote a musical entitled "They Call it Gravy, We Call it Sauce".

Three more trash bags were cleared out of the closet from HELL.

Mostly papers and book bags and files and who knows what else.....I only kept a few things.

However I did keep a few things including a letter sent to me by my friend Brian.  He included a review of his performance in a production of NOISES OFF that read:

"Brian Williams is a wonderful actor though woefully inarticulate......"

That's the way he signed the letter.

Back from a four-hour rehearsal. We finally got through act one. I'm hoping at some point someone actually remembers the blocking and what scene they're in - that would be very special. And we got three scenes into act two, which is much shorter. And I did, I think, solve the title song problem.
