It is signed "To Tom, Break a leg."

And it is signed by Karolyn Grimes, the original Zuzu from the film.

Happy New Year's Eve everyone!  And Happy New Year's to those who've crossed over!

I'm home from my parents' house and will be home for probably the rest of the weekend.  I don't want to go anywhere, not even the movies. :D

Finishing up the Ansermet Sibelius fourth (really lovely) and am moving on to some French ballet music by Milhaud, Poulenc, Sauget, and Auric, which is also the name of my accountants.

Well, the party was a bust. Only two people other than the Minister and Mrs. Minister showed up.

I'll go take a nice hot shower in about ten minutes.  Then I'll uncork the champagne so that's ready.  Then I'll do my New Year's Eve thing, which I'm gonna keep short and sweet tonight, and normally I turn on the TV for the ball drop but I don't think I will tonight - I don't like the people who do that these days and my computer tells me what time it is very accurately.

Tonight is the church soup party. We are going to make a cherpumple for dessert.

I hope you took pictures of the cherpumple, Laura.

I was so nearly  convinced it was you ... I gave him a huge smile and wished him a happy new year and immediately realized that of course it was not you.... So to escape embarrassment I then gave the same exact greeting to every other person in the aisle


ROTFLMAO!

I finally found the time to make the onion custard pie that I've wanted to try for a few weeks now.

Caramelized onions, eggs, heavy cream, Swiss cheese all baking in pie crust. (I had Swiss, not the Gruyere called for.)




This may be a ridiculous question, but don't Swiss and gruyere melt differently, so that the recipe may need a different cooking time?

The cheese is shredded. Depending on how small the shreds are, I would think they'd both melt over the 35 minutes of baking time.

What was interesting to me was that I made the recipe according to directions, except I only softened three onions, instead of the four called for. I have enough filling left over to make another pie tomorrow.

However, we went to Beaches tonight.  I am feeling much better after a Margarita, edame, a small Beach House Salad with mixed greens, candied cashews, jicama, sesame seeds, grilled salmon, asian honey mustard dressing and a side of their fantastic french fries.

I usually feel better after a margarita, too.

It is a framed photo of the entire cast of the film IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE, with Mr. Potter front and center in the shot.

At the moment, the Time-Warner Cable news is interviewing my old friend Lee Wilkof about his new film No Pay, Nudity, which sounds quite lovely,

I saw that on Amazon.  It's available on DVD and Blu-ray.  I added it to my wishlist. :)
