This is where I had lunch. Yes, I had a pork tenderloin and Brad was very helpful with lots of questions I had from my mom. He even made phone calls to find a greenhouse that would deliver plants to my grandparents' graves for memorial day The downtown block they show at the beginning of the piece is the block where my grandpa had his general store http://www.iptv.org/simplepleasures/story.cfm?id=2858&type=story&video=video

Trying to figure out how long ago they filmed that.  Must have been 2009 when he first won the prize. Brad is older now.   I do have to say he was a real joy to talk to. I bought t-shirts for mom and I because it said Prairie City on it.  He also told me all about the people who are living in the house where my mom grew up.  Mom had dared me to go knock on the door and see if they'd let me in.  Brad said they would most likely invite me in if I did, so I did.  Unfortunately they didn't answer the door.

Here's a wonderful concert from the Brits. Julian Ovenden is one of the singers. Am about a half hour into it and Sierra Boguss (sp?) has just sung a wonderful Falling in Love with Love.

That's my friend John Wilson conducting his orchestra for the Proms. He's doing KISS ME KATE for the Proms this summer, and it will be televised.  I recommended my friend Ben Davis for the Alfred Drake role.

Yes, Wilson is quite good. Just finished the show. It was great fun.

The Rodgers & Hammerstein Proms with John featured Sierra, Ovenden, Kim Criswell, and Rodney Gilfry. It's quite wonderful.
I'm going to have to search those out on YouTube.

Next week brings some changes. Starting Tuesday, I'll be working two days a week from home. Not having to face the rush traffic twice in the same week could be too much to handle. But if I try real hard, I could get used to it.

My usual days will be Tuesdays and Wednesdays, but next Thursday is when I have to defend my thesis, so I'll be home that day.

Very envious. We don't get a good pork tenderloin sandwich here in SA. When I was at the newspaper, I would get plenty of questions from readers about where to find that. Which Wich is the only place that has one.

It was great. I've been craving one lately.  It was seriously bigger than a dinner plate. The Goldie fries are dipped in beer batter and they were also fabulous.   Pork tenderloins are  big in Iowa. They are hard to find in other places

The surprise of the concert for me is Seth MacFarlane. Much better than I thought he would be.


I really enjoy Seth in all of those concerts.

Pork tenderloins were big in Louisville at fairs and even more so in Southern Indiana.

Is a pork tenderloin sandwich anything like a McRib sandwich?

I also went here http://www.fws.gov/refuge/neal_smith/  A part of the refuge was one of my grandpa's farm. In the 80s the power company started buying up property to build a nuclear power plant.  By then my mom had inherited the farm.  She held out and didn't sell. A lot of people did, but others didn't too.  I think it was more a valuation thing than a protest, but eventually they decided not to build the plant and the nature preserve was born.  I can't remember if they bought the property from her or what happened, but it's part of the refuge. They are truly returning it to natural prairie.  I didn't see the buffalo today but I saw the elk herd.   DR LAURA - They have lots of different kinds of milkweed and have planted a number of other prairie plants to bring back butterflies that haven't been around in decades

No.  It's pork tenderloin that is tenderized, then breaded and fried.

It's not real exciting, they mix up the liquid, take the tenderized meat, dip it in the egg/liquid mixture, dip it in the cracker crumb mixture and then drop it in the deep fryer.

I knew it was too good to be true! Over the course of the day, my face has developed a very tender, puffy, red rash along the lines of where the mask touches my face. I didn't think I had a latex allergy, but who knows?


The office issued me a cloth covering to go between the mask and my skin, so will try that tonight and hope that it solves the problem.
