I went shopping for a new TV yesterday (I thought it was time to replace my 26" console TV). I didn't buy a TV but I bought a TV stand.

Good morning, all! I think i am still a bit hung over and I'm going back to the sudio around noon for piano solos and piano & cello duets. Last night's party was a lot of fun: much guacamole and chips for the first two hours - Dona was coming late from a master class on opera production at the Met and Rob Berman was late from helping his partner move a dance studio - and I really couldn't tell you what each guest had. Zak Stains and I both had the most wonderful chicken pie. And pomegranate frozen margaritas.

I have to run to the market this morning for bread, and I need to compile a list of violin-piano duets by Herbert; our funder is now thinking of adding them to the mix. I thought, if we do them, that our first choice should be the concert master of the Met, since our cellist is the principal cellist for the Met, or I'd ask my friend Bob Zubrycki.

DR Sam, thank you for the birthday wishes.

BK, if your stocks are like the ones my mother left me, they might have been worth something until 2008!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Safe Travel Vibes & Xylophones for our BK on Thursday! And some good weather, too! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gah! It is hot outside already. I heard on the car radio that it was 91F at 5 a.m.

I remember Here We Go Round The Mulberry Bush.

I recall, back then, really getting the "hots" for Judy Geeson.

Loved the swimming scene.

TOD:

I've never done well playing the stock market.

I have a financial adviser, and prefer to keep my investment $ in conservative mutual and bond funds.

DR DRUXY is the interview available on line anywhere?

I am not a stock market person either - too scary....one day you have money....the next day it's GONE!

Congrats to DR VIXMOM and DR JOSE on their plateaus.

Lovely day today here - and I am off to do some Monday things.

Who has money for the stock market these days?

They say there's a chance for rain tomorrow, Kerry. I don't believe it, though. What do your ankles say?

Monday morning greetings! We are taking it easy this morning - I just got up and Richard is still asleep. Eventually we'll get over to Epcot, but we're not in a hurry because we're meeting friends at one of the hotels near there for a late-ish dinner.

TOD: I bought my first shares of stock when I was a teenager and my parents were trying to instill in me a desire to be frugal and save for tomorrow. The shares were in an electric company that was later sold and when that happened, trying to get the shares cashed out was something of a nightmare as I wasn't living at home anymore and had no idea where the stocks actually were.

I now have shares in the New York Times, which came about from working at one of their papers. Back then, the company matched a certain amount that you bought. They were worth something then, because the stocks actually split at one time and I bought a new car by cashing in the new stocks. I still have some, but they haven't paid a dividend in the past two years (go figure!).

And that concludes the tales of my trivial excursions into the stock market.

I've been thinking about my trip to the Inn at Little Washington last night. It was quite an experience when taken as a whole. This is one of the most highly regarded restaurants in the nation. The setting was elaborate and quite chichi. The service was good but not overbearing. The people were actually quite cordial and had good answers to our questions.

If you sense a but in all this, there is. I am finding that chefs are investing far too much creativity in their appetizers and starter courses than they are in the main courses. I loved the spicy sashimi-style tuna salad with avocado and a touch of sesame oil that started out the evening and that was followed by an even better plate of macaroni and cheese with country ham and shavings of fresh black truffle. But the pecan-crusted lamb was undersalted before cooking and no amount of salt added could make it sing quite as wonderfully. The other entree I tasted was similarly underwhelming in comparison with the starters.

I should have made do with a series of small plates. Yet it was still great to have been there.

SUGAR was just dropped off at my mailbox. I will listen to both discs while I'm washing/scraping/sanding my bay window today.
