DR Jane - I've only been eating vegan a few years, but my protein sources are primarily tofu, beans, seitan, tempeh, and soy-based substitutes.


If I couldn't eat soy, it would be pretty difficult.

I thought maybe you were making special dishes to substitute for the meat dishes you seem to miss.

I miss Craig's vegan dishes.  They were delicious but I'm too lazy these days to cook like I used to.

speaking of gravy, the gravy  I made for the swedish meatball lunch at the soup kitchen today  came out particularly well.

This was my first time cooking the meal all on my own and I was nervous  as all get out  (and you know how nervous  Allget Out gets)

But it went well I am pleased to say

I was just texted (is that a word?) that a mutual friend of ours died on Thursday. He was only 50. It seemed he been battling brain cancer for a while. He left behind a wife and two children. Here is a picture of us at his wedding.

Centennial Summer has arrived!

It's playing right now. What a treat to hear new (to me) Jerome Kern.

Back from the Hill Country. Both panels sold out, both had audiences that really appreciated the fun of it all. And some lovely rose' wines made me happy, even if I couldn't drink them.

Problem has been averted.  Apparently my conversation last night got through to them and I just had an e-mail saying we'll leave well enough alone - I'd already made that decision, but it was good that they said it - I wrote back immediately, said that was my decision, too, and that no more discussion about that can take place.  What will happen is that one of our cast members will not take part in whatever promotion we do for the CD - not that big a deal, actually.

Thank you.  I admit, it was off the internet.  There was no way I was walking away from the Bobcats to get the camera.

Thanks for all the vibes.  It was a very hot day. Even though I had sun screen and a hat and water I was so hot. I tried to spend part of the time in the shade. But my main seat was in the sun.  And the meet was 6 1/2 hours long (with 1 hour lunch break and 1 hour warm up before it started).

The 8 pools in division A took their best 2 swimmers in each event (each swimmer can only swim 2 out of 4 strokes).

It was a bit hard because they had to be there at 8am and they are used to swim meets at night.  My niece didn't do her best times. But she came in first overall in front crawl, 2nd overall in back stroke and their relay came in first.

Now they have to wait for the results for the pools in division B and C. The top 6 in each event go to the finals (7-12 do the B finals). I think my niece should be able to make the finals in all 3 events. So next Saturday it all starts again.

I'm sorry that all this crap is being dump on a recording I'm really looking forward to.

TOD

This mine. It just a  simple well told story with a great score by John Barry and a love theme that they eventually add lyrics to.





A cult has grown up around this it. It has its own website ]http://www.somewhereintime.tv] created by INSITE: International Network of Somewhere In Time Enthusiasts. An annual Somewhere in Time Weekend at Grand Hotel, Mackinac Island, MI each October, since 1991.

Love this movie.  It was written by my late friend, Richard Matheson.

I love this movie too, haven't seen it in a long time.  It wouldn't be the same without the score.

Pretty. But I would completely freak out if I saw one of those in my backyard.

If we had been outside it would have run away.  The same has happened with coyotes in the past and the bear in the woods stayed in the woods & the cougar stayed in the tree.

If the bear or cougar had been that close to me outside I would have been frightened.

Would you have had your camera ready even from inside the house?  I get the impression it is always attached to you.

Not very often unfortunately.   Keith recently sited the mother crossing the same direction outside but she was moving away from him.  He missed the baby that we now suspect was with you.

A few years back while we were out walking Keith held Sherlock while I attempted to get close enough to one to get a photo.  I got the photos but because the Bobcat was in the shadows they didn't come out.
