Good luck, Jane!

Thanks.  It looks nice.  Now I need a load of dishes to wash.  That might take a couple of days.

Today we saw a new doctor, Dr Kahn, who's just delightful.  She washed out Annabelle's nasal passages, gave her an antibiotic shot, suggested she could lose a pound, and recommended I purchase an air purifier.  Her heart, lungs, and temperature were fine.

She also said that Annabelle's dental work surgery was gealing nicely.

[Jane]

Also, my Birding Buddy is back in the hospital. I am very worried about her. I have not seen her since before my jury duty began over a month ago.

I too would be worried. 

GET WELL VIBES FOR YOUR BIRDING BUDDY!

Isn't it sad that they can't just let me have the stupid $12 per day. That pretty much just covered lunch downtown.

Can you write off the lunch

[Jane]

Dishwasher compatibility vibes for DR JANE.

Thank you.

This is great.

We went out, had drinks, edamame, followed by an early dinner, returned, and not a single post while I was gone.

Had a somewhat productive meeting and am having to be strong about what the stage is going to look like for the concert.  Our orchestra guy wants they symphony shell - wood paneling and ceiling and I do NOT want such an eyesore because he's got four five-minute segments during a two hour show and the rest is theatre and the paneling is off-putting and you can't light things with it.

Has anybody here ever used Penzeys  spices? 

I kept seeing ads for the on FB and after one particularly good sale I decided to give them a try. 

[vixmom]

They have a lot of blends and one I bought was their pork chop seasoning which I rubbed on a pork loin cut into medallions,

It was amazing...I am trying to cook using less fat and butter and oil  so we can stop a few pounds

All I used was the spice and a little hit water in the skillet yo keep the mesh from sticking...I couldn't.  believe how delicous it was with no oil or butter or pork fat

[John G.]

I use Penzy’s. Good stuff.

Had something new to me today: white velvet cake. It’s like red velvet cake without the dye and the cocoa powder.

It was with buttercream frosting and lemon curd. Must revisit when I’m home.

[vixmom]

Hopefully using more spices and less fats will make us less fat too

We watched Roxanne tonight. Hard to believe the movie is 31 years old. Still charming.

Fat doesn’t make you fat.

Very little reading today. I did finish Balzac’s Les Chouans, the first novel printed under his own name. Bad historical novel, but it had its moments.

[vixmom]

I use Penzy’s. Good stuff.

I had never heard of them and really bought because of a really good free offer ( and I am a sucker for a free offer)


When they were delivered to my office one of my coworkers said she bought from them and that they have brick and mortar stores as well as an online store.

I'm not sure I should be allowed to go into one of their stores ....I might be tempted beyond the budget

Great news about the Cole Porter CD. Decline and Fall has been a favorite for ages. Glad the sound is getting cleaned up.

Their Dallas store is huge. It’s like a candy shop for me. I’ve bought everything from beet powder to freeze-dried celery flakes from them. I guess I’m just a flake myself.

[John G.]

Good night, all.

well something sure is doing it!!

We love that movie

BK, something weird still going on with my Paypal.  Could you check that my payment for the CD got in right?

[vixmom]

Vibes and prayers for Cecil

Laura, that's an interesting question.  I'll ask Monday, because now I'm curious.  (NY for anyone I've seen has been a flat amount per jury day, no mileage, so i guess it's never come up.)

The air dried shallots I put in with the mushrooms with a little lemon and white cooking wine were delicate and sweet as well

It's been years since I was called but I don't  recall mileage bring provided

Larry, I think I spoke off the cuff (without naming you) about what you'd done when you nominated "Sunday in the Park With George" for the Pulitzer.  Did you pay the nomination fee yourself?  Also, did you nominate it in your status as a musical theater scholar, or something along those lines, or did you just say you're a fan of theater and this show moved you?

On this ad for something called K-tape, the lady says "That means sore knees, that means sore back"  - each time I see the ad, I expect her to follow that with "That means sore buns."
