I've had my walk. I passed a biker that might have been Kyra Sedgewick on Riverside Drive, but I wouldn't swear to it.

I am out of shape, but in a week, my walks and I will be formidable! Carrying a heavy bag back from the grocery was also good exercise.

It's a beautiful day in Manhattan as well.

It may be cloudy and rainy tomorrow (that's what the weather guessers say) but it's gorgeous right now. We have been out and about running errands and had a trip to the library. We have a documentary about Provincetown, a 1969 production of Twelfth Night with Ralph Richardson, Joan Plowright and others and the HBO Mildred Pierce. Thanks, New York Public Library.

Bruce, did my check for a copy of A Time for Singing arrive? If so, that's fine, no rush to deposit it, I just want to know that it got there. I'm doing my check book right now and wanted to ask.

Yes, it's here. I haven't deposited yet because I wait until I build up enough checks - next week they'll all go in.

Loquat. Using up some frozen fruit from last year. It's in the oven now. It's been a bother. Something went wrong with the pie crust.

Yes, thank goodness for the library. I got "Searching for Sugar Man" and a Peruvian flick called "Undertow" today. Now, if I only had time to watch them.

It's an ok day here in the Bay Area. It's suppose to rain... let's hope it's after our service tonight. I see to be almost caught up with things. I'll be heading back to the church in a bit to finish some music prep for musicians, etc - but the power points are done. Just need to shower, get dressed and get back. Tomorrow (which begins at 7:00) should run quick and smoothly.

Do you do any of the services outdoors? We used to, but it kept getting too cold on Easter morning. When I lived in Florida, I used to love going to sunrise services on the beach.

For you, Jane. ChasSmith, I wish I could send a slice.

DR John G your pie is beautiful and I do wish very much you could send me a piece. I think so anyway, what kind it it?

Jane · « **Reply #106 on:** March 30, 2013, 04:30:04 PM »

It appears to be a dark berry of some kind.

I remember a snowy Easter in Massachusetts & Bryan building a snow bunny.

Woops -- forgot to log out when I went out to buy food, and then eat it, and then listen to some stuff.....

John G. · « **Reply #112 on:** March 30, 2013, 04:50:47 PM »

I've got 10 people coming tomorrow and the brush pickup is Monday. A tree trimmer just stopped by and I needed the branches that are over the roof trimmed back. So, I'm seeing the shadows of branches coming down outside as I type this. Strange.

Plus, the area at the curb will be covered with branches. Won't be very sightly, but people can at least get by.

Jane · « **Reply #113 on:** March 30, 2013, 04:52:40 PM »

Good think it is daylight saving time so the tree trimmer can work late.

Have a good time with your company. I'm envious they get to eat the pie

I was very happy that my hip didn't hurt during my swim today. I was aware of it but it wasn't painful. It began bothering a later but nothing debilitating so I'm happy.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #115 on:** March 30, 2013, 05:01:48 PM »

That pie looks like it will fill a lot of happy pie holes.

My cousin from Maryland was here for dinner along with her daughter and her husband. Skip made a lovely chicken dish and a great berry cobbler. i don't think i went off my diet calorically, though.

2000 calories per meal, right?

Sounds right to me. Though I should warn you that limiting yourself to an arbitrary figure like that can get in your way of enjoying....
