I just finished watching GERONIMO: An American Legend.

According to the film, Geronimo surrendered on September 6, 1886.

My father was born on September 1, 1886.

I'm not claiming that the two events are related.

I just thought that was interesting.

Ginny, I loved seeing the banns. Every time I see that word I think of the kid in 'Spellbound" who gets knocked out of the spelling bee for not knowing it.

Thanks, DR John G. It was the first time in his priestly life that Richard had read the banns - for anyone. I'm surprised he (and I) got through it without choking up.

Went to a farmers market after church and had some truly amazing barbecued brisket. The rub on the outside had turned into a terrific crust and plenty of subtle wood flavors had settled in during the smoking. Just the right amount of fat to keep the meat terrifically juicy.

Then I had pizza with a vegan blogger.

Vegan cheese, vegan crust. It was not the same.

For what it was, the vegan pizza was actually good, but it just wasn't the same.

I didn't eat the crust because of the flour, but the pizza joint actually had a great idea that I'm going to copy at home. Instead of a flour-based crust, they made personal pizzas on portobellos that were grilled with the cheese (I had real cheese), tomato sauce and herbs on top. Tasted great and low-carb. Not exactly like thin-crust, New York-style pizza but a really good treat.

I also tried their gluten-free pizza, made with a tapioca or manioc crust. The crust was a little on the sweet side and in dire need of a little salt to bring it to life. But gluten-free crusts are so hard to make and so in-demand that the pizzeria started buying its gluten-free crust. That just seems to me to be a reversal of how things should go. Shouldn't you try to make something in-house because the demand has increased?

Good news about the new Kritzerland release.......wonder what it could be? I shall have to read some of the BK books to see if I can figure it out.

I am pretty sure it is NOT Ronald Stein's score from RUNAWAY DAUGHTERS.

My money is riding on HOW TO STUFF A WILD BIKINI.

The washed bedding is on the bed, the laundry is put away, I've vacuumed and had some breakfast, and I can either clean the bathroom or tackle the refrigerator. I think I'll clean the bathroom and leave the defrosting till this afternoon.

has anyone listened to the new KNICKERBOCKER HOLIDAY recording? I like much of it, but I'm unhappy that it's a live concert, since there are some bungled lyrics and poor sound balances, and it's cut. We're midding about fifteen minutes of the entire score including the wonderful "Algonquins from Harlem" swing dance. "The Bachelor's Song" was cut during the out-of-town tryout, probably to cut the wait for Walter Huston's entrance, and I really love the song. Chris Fitzgerald does a great job with it.

I was very disappointed that they didn't use my rendition of SEPTEMBER SONG.

DR Jane, I am so glad to see that you have returned.

Thank you. I have been concerned you weren't here upon my return. How are you after the latest fall? Do you have non-skip socks like I do? Craig slipped in Sherlock's drool today & said if it had been me I would have fallen. Fortunately he was barefoot or he might have fallen.

On day 4 of our vacation we went on a two hour pontoon ride around the lake which included a history of the area & a stop for a swim. In stead of swimming I held our youngest grand nephew while he slept.

The early evening wedding overlooking the lake was very nice. We had a wonderful time with my family. Usually our time together is a few hours in the afternoon or evening. This was on & off until after breakfast Sunday morning when we left to get Sherlock. It was just extra special, especially with Craig & Bryan there.

Then to a fitting.

Jane · « **Reply #77 on:** August 07, 2011, 03:53:07 PM »

On day 5 Bryan left before anyone was up. We briefly saw Craig as we carried his hanging bag with his suite for him making his flight travel easier.

At breakfast we saw the older of my brother's daughter's, our nephew & best of all his two sons.

I'll skip the part we weren't happy about, the big sore on Sherlock's face & that his back side stunk from something he must of sat in-didn't help that it was pouring rain.

We spent the evening in Santa Barbara & ate at Andersen's bakery http://www.andersenssantabarbara.com/ I had a delicious Havarti sandwich on rye & I purchased treats from the bakery to go.

As I was saying...

Today is E. Faye Butler's last day as Aunt Eller. -Terry Burrell starts on Tuesday. Well...

During one of her exits, E. Faye would make ad lib about cooking something in her kitchen. Each day she would be cookin' up something different. So...

In honor of her last day, the cast and crew hosted a potluck dinner between shows based on the various foods that she had rattled off over the past couple of weeks and months. A list went up and people chose the food they wanted to cook. So...

Baked Ham
Fried Chicken
Pork Ribs
Baked Beans
Potato Salad
Okra and Tomatoes
Fried Corn
Collard Greens
Rutabagas
Cornbread
Deviled Eggs
Hoe Cakes
Plum Preserves
Green Beans
Egg Pie
Banana Pudding
Custard with Raspberry Syrup
Fried Green Tomatoes
Etc., etc., etc.

There was a LOT of food.

We have our second show of the day in 37 minutes...

And then I'm taking the 11:45pm bus back to NYC for the night/day/night... *I mainly need to go back to fetch my clothes for my brother's wedding.

So...

DR Ginny my father's name was Charles Robert.

DR Jane, my Uncle Bob went to his grave believing that Rob was named after him, but it was actually a coincidence. Robert is Richard's younger brother's first name and Charles was his father's name.

Jane · « **Reply #85 on:** August 07, 2011, 04:15:57 PM »

Robert is also my uncle's (brother to my father) middle name, my brother's middle name, my ex-brother in-law's middle name & the middle name for both my sister & my brother's sons.
