It's well worth the wait. It's my favorite of BK's novels.

But then again, it's got a lot about restaurants in it, a topic close to my waist and my heart.

They also had "I'll See You in My Dreams" with Blythe Danner and Sam Elliott. I've read really good things about that one.

When I was at my other job a business across the hall, went out of business and there was a auction of all their furnishings    I bought a couch for $100. That was brand new.  We had it for many years

TOD: We went to auctions when we were first married. My DH spent all the money on junk, so I wouldn't allow him to go to any more.

So, how many rattlesnakes were on the trail, Laura, and you without your camera?

Just one - but it was just a couple feet off the trail. Would have been a great opportunity.

Here's a story about a production of Sweeney Todd in which the shave was a little too close for comfort:

The other day, Kate mentioned the Andy Griffith Show.
