Would somebody please send me a private message and tell me how I can fix my photo.

I feel like I'm in a horror movie and the walls are closing in on me.

TOD: Oreo cake from Tomatoes Restaurant at the mall. Tomatoes closed a while back, thank goodness, so I can't get it any more.

I had french toast for breakfast, well it was just Callie and I at the table - not the gang in NYC, but does that count anyway?

TOD:  As much as I adore ( and I do mean adore) chocolate (and German Chocolate cake, Oreo Cake, a cake DRMusic guy used to make once-in-a bluemoon-- I saw the moon so i know.  It was a completely homemade dark chocolate cake with loads of realwhite buttercream frosting), my favoites still have to be Angel Food  and Pineapple Upside Down cake.  The good thing about my favories is that most of the people around me don't care for them, so I usually get the WHOLE cake to myself!

Favorite cake--the combined chocolate cake recipe of Betsy's family with my mother's divoon whipped cream chocolate frosting, which is our standard chocolate cake experience around here, as many of you know.  Some of you may also remember that Betsy's maiden name was Semon, and we used to call the cake, after our respective families, the Kauffman Semon cake, until we began noticing the peculiar reactions we were getting.  ;)

I got up, fed the dogs, let them out in the front yard and saw Blanche nearly jump out of her skin in unbridled joy at something on the lawn.  My eyes weren't quite "right" yet, and I thought it was a pile of leaves for a moment until I suddenly realized it was a dead possum.  Great way to start the morning, eh?

Good morning!

Another very cool morning but the high today will be in the upper 70s, so autumn seems to be here. Nice.

My eldest sister has a really good MONKEY CAKE recipe that they fix for everyone on Christmas morning when we have family get-togethers.

My favorite cake I've mentioned many times here: my mother's cocoanut cake which she never gave me the recipe for and will remain a lingering memory.

As for the cakes I make, I really love my peanut butter cake with the chocolate icing which is like a Reece's peanut butter cup in cake form.

I'll be working on Jean-Pierre Melville's LE DEUXIEME SOUFFLE today. I've never seen it, and it appears to be another of his 60s film noirs, so I'm really looking forward to it.

I was splendidly engaged by the Blu-ray of Lorin Maazel's North Korean concert with the NY Phil.  The doc which accompanies it is really scary at times--they took everyone's cell phone away and two early morning joggers were rounded up by armed guards!

I really wish you'd stop these little jabs at Palin.  It's not going to go in a good direction

Not to mention, it was my idiocy I was joking about.  So the "jab" was directed at me.

Vegetable-Only Diet Ups Risk for Brain Shrinkage
Monday, September 15, 2008


Being a vegetarian may actually be bad for your brain, according to a study published in the Sept. 9 issue of Neurology, The Sun reported.

The study said those on a meat-free diet are six times more likely to suffer brain shrinkage as the most vitamin B12 is found in meats, liver, fish and milk.

According to the study, vitamin B12 may protect older people against brain shrinkage.

A study of 107 people between the ages of 61 and 87 found that people who had higher B12 levels were six times less likely to experience a loss in brain volume compared to those who had lower levels of the vitamin in their blood. None of the people in the study had a B12 deficiency.

Brain shrinkage typically occurs after the age of 60 and has been linked to memory loss.

For the research, participants underwent brain scans, memory testing and physical exams. Researchers also collected blood samples to check vitamin B12 levels. Brain scans and memory tests were performed five years after the initial testing.

"Many factors that affect brain health are thought to be out of our control, but this study suggests that simply adjusting our diets to consume more vitamin B12 through eating meat, fish, fortified cereals or milk may be something we can easily adjust to prevent brain shrinkage and so perhaps save our memory," said study author Anna Vogiatzoglou, of the University of Oxford, in a news release.

Vogiatzoglou said the study did not look at whether taking vitamin B12 supplements would have the same effect on memory.

Apparently, the pro guy did fix that GUESTS can no longer see profiles - can someone please check it's so?  But he forgot to do the option so we see the users on the board at the top of the page.  Hopefully he'll get to that today.
