My neighbors arrived home while I was out working. I told them what I was doing and that I really wanted to figure out a way to take out this big tree stump out there. I think my neighbor had a few glasses of wine with dinner...she looked at me and said "Wouldn't that be wonderful, the stumps just look so.....stumpy"

In the middle of the park is a small "lake" and fountain.  When I first saw "this", I thought it was a fake, a sort of statue. But when it started to move, well...

DR George - RE: Sunday In The Park With George - From what I understand, the version you're seeing in Seattle is basically a remount of the recent Broadway and Donmar warehouse production. -And, yes, those visuals are AMAZING!  And it was nice to finally see a Chromolume that made sense.

-So, who did "Dennis" play in the first act?

The actor playing the Boatman played Dennis.  The actor who played Franz played Lee Randolph...who was played as VERY obviously gay and VERY attracted to George. ;)

DR Druxy are you happy with your new furniture?  I usually live in a house for awhile before purchasing furniture for it.

The only other change in the doubling as compared to the original production was that Mr. and Charles Redmond were played by the same actor, which I didn't realize is how the revival was re-doubled.

Tonight's Entree:

Keegan Filion Farms Chicken "al Mattone", Anson Mills farrotto, English peas, spring onions, garden carrots, herb salad


-Accompanied by a glass of Elderton "Tantulus", Shiraz(68%)/Cabernet Sauvignon(32%), 2006, South Australia

The "al Mattone" preparation is "under a brick", although in this case, they use a weighted press.  It was deboned except for a portion of the leg bone, making it very easy to eat.  And it really was one of the best roasted chickens I've ever had, seasoned and cooked to perfection.

Well, I must now leave and go home to do some laundry. :P But it needs to be done...of course.

Until later!

And then to finish off tonight's veritable feast...

Molten Chocolate Cake, Chocolate-Caramel Ice Cream*


*The molten chocolate cake is normally served with their Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream, but since they started serving the Chocolate-Caramel Ice Cream last week, well... And since I did get up at 5:45 this morning, well... ;)

Oh my, I'm drooling here.  I wish it had been served with mint chocolate so I would not want any.  Chocolate-caramel ice cream on the cake sounds, and looks, divine.

Forgot to mention that I was so agitated over the Internet thing this morning that after going about five blocks on the jog I turned around and came home.

No.  But when I got dressed for the Rotary Club event this morning, I was very happily able to wear a pair of dress chinos that I wasn't able to fit in comfortable just four months ago.  :)

I have been to the Citadel many, many times. My cousin Carl went there in the early 1960s, so my aunt and uncle and I made many trips to Charleston. Later in the decade, my brother went there and graduated. He was married in a chapel there after his graduation, and I was his best man.

In between those two periods of time, I attended summer camp there (a month long sports camp my parents basically shamed me into attending).

I had a fun evening of viewing. I began with today's AS THE WORLD TURNS. The boys weren't on, but the business with the kidnapping and ransom certainly took front and center time for Lily, Holden, and Damien.

They were in the previews for tomorrow.

Next, I watched THE LOST BOYS on Blu-ray. It's a silly, fun movie. Jason Patric is absolutely gorgeous, one of the great beauties of his day, so why didn't he have a bigger career? (SPEED 2 did him no favors, I know.)

The transfer was impeccable and the sound (Dolby TrueHD) just wonderful.

And just in case you think my life is all fun and games, I have also spent the last 2 days mowing the backyard lawn.  I still have about 1/3 to go.

The job will go a lot faster if you get a larger pair of nail clippers.
