Roasted chicken - YUM! -And that bacon... oooh, sooo good too!
Roasted fennel and carrots - YUM!

And since I already had my Levain cookie earlier - YUM! - I've already my dessert.

-And I'm guessing a salad of mixed greens, roasted beets and bits up cut up roast chicken will make a might fine lunch tomorrow.

I have a question for anyone who might know about SAVING GRACE.

Has the final show of Season one aired yet on TNT? After our last episode we got a rather mysterious note at the bottom of the screen. It said the last 4 episodes would air starting dec 31st. But until then they would re-air Season 1. Very odd.

I think they should have canceled it after Episode 1!

I wonder how many people's VCRs (and other electronics) automatically changed the time by mistake.

I just checked the temp for Halloween here and it is supposed to be a high of 14 C for the day (that's high 55s i guess). So that could be pretty decent. I hate it when it's rainy or really cold.

It's almost time for DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES!

I didn't really do much today. My sister and niece showed up at around 9:30am. We went to Chapters (book store). They were having a party/fair. With a petting zoo and clown. We had free cotton candy (my niece loved it). And the clown made her a pink dog balloon.

They redid the whole store which was sort of odd. They did storytime but megan didn't like it. All she wanted to do (believe it or not) was ride up or down the escalator. The funniest thing was as we were going up one time. We turned and went right down. And the lady and little child in front of us did the same thing. We had to laugh because her daughter had begged her to ride the escalator too!

RE: SAVING GRACE.

It's not my favorite show by any means. But there are a few interesting characters. And the storylines usually keep my attention. It just happens it started here during the summer.

Still no CLOSER for us this season, which really sucks. The station that was showing it turned to an E chanel. ANd the W (women's channel) that also shows it is only on season 2!

I also made a roast chicken tonight. ANd it was very good.

My sister really wanted to make a roast chicken. But she had never made one before. Plus she did not think she would have time to make it when she got home (it needed 2 hours). So we made ours side by side. ANd she took hers home.

Jose, I love hearing the details about the Walsh tribute, even though I wasn't familiar with him. It's a great honor and they obviously think very highly of you to ask you to be on board. You always have such great, descriptive posts about your adventures!

i agree with all of the above

Today I was watching Food TV and saw what looked like a great recipe for a turkey burger. It has applesauce and maple syrup in it... so I decided to try it. Well, she said she cooked it on an oiled grill pan. I have a grill pan - it's either LeCreuset or Rachael Ray...anyway, I oiled it and put the mixed up burger on it...after 6 minutes I went to turn it and it was SOOOO stuck. It left a total mess so there was no way I could flip and keep cooking. So, I tried to finish it in the microwave. Well they were cooked, but tasted really dry and lousy. I realize they had a sauce on tv and I was prepared to make it, but when the burgers bombed..I decided not to do it.

So, all you chefs and cooks out there. What did I do wrong and how do I make it work if I try it again???

You can get it at AMAZON for $15.

Most retail outlets will not carry it, for obvious reasons.

What are the obvious reasons?

Who and how does one decide what info should go into a trailer? I like them fun and exciting but not too informed. I feel in some I get a capsualization of the final print.

i remember Arnold complain, rightfully so, about the trailer for TERMINATOR 2. more than any trailer i can recall, that one gave away far too much info and ruined the suspense of the opening chase scene.

I'm back from a good day in Toyland and GONE BABY GONE, which I liked very much and a bleaker film I haven't seen in some time. My friend Matthew lived in Dorchester for a while - when I visited him and his girlfriend Myra they lived in Back Bay - and he said the accents were dead on. The cast was quite wonderful and the mystery quite involved and heartbreaking. The preview for John Cusack's new film GRACE IS GONE thoroughly pissed me off by providing too, too much information. Why not simply call the film GRACE IS DEAD? What do these asshole trailer assemblers think?

Elmore, I believe that the only people in the movie who don't know that Grace is Dead are the children, which is the point of the film. I don't think there has been any attempt by the Producers or the Press to hid the fact that she is dead.

There is a very lovely version of I HAVE DREAMED by David David Burnham & Tammi Tappan Live at the Cinegrill in Los Angeles.

It i s nice to listen to, but unfortunately it is out of sync. Not SINGING IN THE RAIN out of sync, but still.

My best friend from junior high, high school, and college was in town last week. We enjoyed a lovely dinner together on Wednesday. He lived for the past thirty years in Burbank, California. However, last January in moved to Georgia, just outside of Atlanta in Dallas. He said that several people, natives to Georgia, have asked him what country he came from.

DR TCB - how nice for you to spend time with a long-time friend.

When I first moved here to southern Ohio from Michigan, someone said to me, "You're not from around here - I can tell by the way you talk."

My mothers alarm clock did - luckily I noticed it because it is right next to the radio clock and tv clock, which were correct.
