Mac and cheese soup sounds like it could have potential to be tasty if someone actually set out to make it that way.  Having regular mac and cheese turn out all soupy sounds pretty bad.  You'd think they'd have noticed the liquid before serving and drained the excess liquid out, even if only to cover their mistake. 

It is amazing how often restaurants will serve burned food.

I'm picking someone up at Westchester County Airport at 11:30 tonight, and that's really going to seem late.

Methinks a li'l power nap sometime this afternoon is in order.

Reminds me of the flights from L.A. to Medford when we lived in Ashland.

The author of HILLBILLY ELEGY (which has been talked about on this site) is part of a panel on the election right now on Fareed Zakaria's show on CNN. 

I'm pretty sure this show is repeated at 1 pm eastern time, if anyone's curious.

Thanks for the tip.

Then she captured the exquisite sunrise Saturday morning, which I just missed.

When she turned around she saw a double rainbow, which I also saw having been woken up by Keith, quickly thrown clothes on and ran outside with my camera.  Her panoramic photo was much better than mine.

I'm up, I'm up - a bit over nine hours of sleep.  Kitchen clocks are set correctly.  I'll jog in an hour or so.

I went as far as I could with one arrangement; I ran out of paper.  So, I'm back to hte choral piece.  The next 20 bars are the same as an earlier section, so I'm just recopying it up a step from E-flat to F.  I'm listening to Ormandy's 1960 recoring of Carmina Burana with Harve Presnell.  I remember what a jolt it was hearing this piece for the first time, and t's still my favorite recording.

I'm watching "The Crown" on Netflix. It's about Queen Elizabeth II.  Some of it is slow moving but I'm enjoying it overall.  I don't think the actress playing the Queen is quite right for the role.

There's quite a bit about Winston Churchill, who is played by John Lithgow.  All I can say about his performance is that he should make room on a shelf for an Emmy Award.

DR Elmore, I almost wish I hadn't discovered Local Donuts. Almost.

Salted Caramel. Yum.

You could have taken him plain Dunkin' Donuts, but you had to go all special.

We made it to the southern coast for the first time. The water was more aggressive than the calm water on the north side. The economy was far worse.

I guess the tourists want gentle waters with their beach time.

I have become an expert at making the traditional Greek farmers salad. I have also been putting the foraged herbs to good use.

Today I found some spearmint, just like I grow back home.
