I got no review copies today (though I'm supposed to be getting VICKY CHRISTINA BARCELONA). So, tomorrow will be a day off for me as will every day until some other product comes in.

In other news...

I will not be sailing the Caribbean two weeks from now.  However, the "Disney Princes Cruise" has just been postponed, not cancelled, so I will be sailing later this Spring.  :)

Does that mean that you will be going to the Inauguration?

I'm working on that.  Although, I think my tickets may have already been re-distributed, spoken-for, which is OK.

And speaking of the Inauguration:

During yesterday's final performance of Hairspray, Tracy Turnblad/Marissa Jaret Winokur said:


"The Corny Collins Show and The White House are now integrated!"


*I wasn't there. I read about her "embellishment" in various sources.

I am feeling much stronger today - maybe getting almost 700 calories into me and an hydration treatment - tomorrow I try for 1200 calories - the goal is 1800- 2000 but the trouble is getting it in and getting it to stay in...

I have lost the extra 10 lbs I packed on when I found out about the big C and am back down to 135.  They are trying to keep me from losing more.

I was wondering if any of the HHW chefs would have any input to my dilemna.

I am making macaroni and cheese tomorrow night.

Some of the recipes call for just making the sauce on the stove, the noodles on the stove and then mixing.

Some of the recipes call for then layering the noodles and the sauce and putting it in the oven for 20 minutes.

My niece is used to Kraft Dinner type mac & cheese. So i'm thinking she would be more familiar with option #1. I'm curious about option #2, because i'd like to see what this does to the dish. But will it stay creamy?

Also i am going to make it before i get to her house. So i was thinking about doing the sauce and the noodles at my house and then putting it in the oven at my sister's house.

Any opinions would be welcome.

Then there's Option #3:

-Place cooked/boiled elbow macaroni in baking dish.
-Mix in shredded cheddar cheese.
-Pour copious amounts of melted butter over everything.
-Bake.

As for the mixing and baking or not baking - I think it all depends if you want some sort of crust on top.  Personally, I really love baked mac'n'cheese - Corner piece, Please!  Adding a layer of breadcrumbs on top is a nice addition too.  -Oh, and some sliced pepperoni for "Polka Dotted Mac'n'Cheese".

It also depends how soupy you like your mac'n'cheese.  Baking it makes everything "set up".

Danise be very careful about what you are signing re: roof repairs there are scam artists out there who are actually putting a mortgage on your home - please be sure to get it reviewed by a competent attorney/banker that you trust BEFORE you sign - if you have already signed you should have a 72 hour window to rescind -

Well... I've actually been feeling a little "under" all day.  The walk I took earlier did help, but I think I just need a good night's sleep which means NOT falling asleep with my lights and radio on.  -I've been tuning into WNYC lately, and they're overnight music programming is not exactly sleep-complementary.  So...

Goodnight.

I've taken the "Jeopardy" test twice, and just missed going on to the second stage by three(!) questions. I haven't thought about "auditioning" for "Millionaire", but I have two friends who have been on the show.  One did rather well, and my other friend's episode(s?) have yet to air, so I have no idea how he did.

OH and while the cooking lessons are going on - I finally got hold of some ginger root - now how exactly am I supposed to prepare tea from it? Do I peel it? How much should I use? Should it be grated or sliced?

 I ahev a friend who was on both, years ago  - he was doing well and then suddenly panicked, doubted himself and gave a wrong answer (final jeopardy inthe one instance , $50,000 inthe the 2nd ) and well that's all you wrote

Still he ended up with enough money from Millionaire for a new car and got nice parting gifts from Jeopardy

I have now watched 15 or so episodes of M SQUAD, and I have decided that Lee Marvin was the biggest ham in Hollywood.

I like the show, and the guest stars are great.

I, too, was watching Rose Of Washington Square - I don't really see the Fanny Brice stuff, since Alice Faye is about as funny as a brick, but I haven't gotten to the end yet, so maybe there's something there other than the fact she's in love with a Nicky Arnstein type.  I do love Jolson, though.   And William Frawley.  I got waylaid by two long telephonic calls, so I'll probably watch the last forty minutes tomorrow night.
