THE TUFTED TITMOUSE
« on: June 23, 2013, 12:22:45 AM »

Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of the titmouse, and now it is time for you to post until the tufted cows come home - they're currently singing the score to The Sound of MOOsic.

Good morning, DRs!


DR Cillaliz, I thoroughly enjoyed that ballad from Harmony - thank you for the link!

Optimistically hoping for warm weather I decided to make this a completely salad weekend Typically, the weather has turned out to be cold, wet and dull.

Had dinner last night at a place about two hours from town, out in the middle of nowhere. It was called The Laurel Tree and it was in Utopia, TX. Somewhat like Brigadoon, it is open only one night a week and it was magical. The chef has a huge farm on the property with a really gorgeous, manicured herb garden, and she used as much of the stuff as she could grow in her food. And the food was exceptionally good. I'll share only one image of the food. It's creme brulee topped with white chocolate-dipped cherries and ginger mint:

last night we watched a couple of oldies:

SNEAKERS w/Robert Redford, which holds up pretty well, and...

Monty Python's THE MEANING OF LIFE, which doesn't.

Good morning, all! Last night I got hooked watching the Joseph Papp production of Much Ado About Nothing, which I hadn't seen since a PBS broadcast around 1975 or so. It's set in 1912 or thereabouts and directed much like a musical so it's reminiscent of The Music Man, and director A.J. Anton, keeping the turn-of-the-century Americana, has several silent film sequences, the Keystone Kops, and some funny business.

My friends April Shawnan and Barnard Hughes are both in it, and I really enjoyed seeing it again. Peter Link's ragtime score is quite wonderful, and the choreography by Donald Saddler and Helen Gallagher - waltzes, the Castle Walk, and the turkey trot - are as graceful as Theoni Aldredge's costumes.

I will shortly head down to Toyland to put the orchestra books together. I have no idea how long that will take;

Boy, did I sleep in this morning, or what?  And it was beautiful.  I needed it.  Thank you, cats.  Thank you.

After posting last night, I turned my "second wind" to ketchuping on the latest episode of MAGIC CITY which I have been shamelessly enjoying.  It's a show I only got to know a couple of weeks ago, and I watched all eight episodes of season one in one 24-hour period, which was bliss.  (I love making an all-day movie out of a great series.)  South Florida-in-1959/60 goings on are irresistible to the likes of moi and I shall happily suffer any little misgivings about the show here and there, while happily taking in the rest.

The actor in that video reminds me a little of a young Roger Bart!  Very funny.

After that I came back to the board for a moment, but exhaustion had finally caught up with me and I didn't even have the strength to say a proper good night.  Hell, I didn't even say an improper one.  Sleep was next, and it was a damned fine one.

Thanks for the reminder about MAD MEN, DR JRand62.  Since our Sunday show is at night, I'll have to catch it on a late-night repeat, or tomorrow (on) On Demand.
