Happy Birthday, Arnold!

You knew to check in here for birthday wishes.

Thanks Jeanne. The flight is 6 hours and 40 minutes.

The plane is here so hopefully we will depart on time.
Yesterday Craig's flight was 15 minutes late while Bryan & Kate were delayed 2 hours.

I didn't realize that Matthew Goode was a heartthrob. That is certainly a nice photo of him that DR George posted last night.

I liked him very much in DANCING ON THE EDGE, then was pleased to see him in DOWNTON ABBEY. He's a very capable actor.

Ugh! Maybe you can sleep a bit.

I really like the idea of getting together in a new place, so you can not only see one another, but also experience some new things.

Jane · « **Reply #66 on:** May 28, 2019, 04:05:08 PM »

We are about to board 😊

I tried a vegan whipped cream for the first time today. It was surprisingly good. Most vegan cream is made from coconut milk or coconut cream. I don't know what this was made from. I'll have to ask. I rarely eat real ice cream anymore. The vegan ice creams are sooo good! Harder to find, but worth it, IMO.

That would be a very welcomed surprise.

Do they have less fat and/or sugar?

I agree and hope we can do this more often.

We had a nice dinner at the airport. Keith had fish and chips while I had salmon with string beans.

I didn't realize you ate fish

Probably no less sugar, though I haven't checked. Coconut milk contains saturated fat, but it's a healthy saturated fat, the only one I can think of.

My latest and greatest vegan ice cream love is Daiya's Chocolate Fudge Crunch ice cream bars. To die for! These are soooo good!

Aren't those a local treat?

The vegan whipped cream is local. I tried it at the nearby salad bar ( a very extensive salad bar!)
But Daiya products, as well as So Delicious and Coconut Bliss, are national. Even some of the supermarkets carry these brands. Zero cholesterol.

The Daiya bars are now on my shopping list. I love my Alexa ap on my phone.

Time to go into airplane mode.

Back from getting some packages and Taco Bell. I've eaten, I'm at 1200 calories, and I'm listening to music after conversing with Richard Sherman.

A lull.

George · « **Reply #81 on:** May 28, 2019, 06:50:51 PM »

And on that note (A#), I'm leaving work.

Be back later.

I was thinking about yesterday's musicals topic. I think my three favorite shows recently were Once, A Gentleman's Guide To Love and Murder, and Bright Star. I liked Come From Away, but I found its score all sounded the same to me. I did not like the book to The Story of My Life very much, but I liked the score.

I didn't see Tuck Everlasting, but I like the score, and the same is true of Catch Me If You Can.

I saw a regional production of Catch Me If You Can and like the score much better than the book. I need to get the score for Tuck Everlasting.

Some letdown scores from when I was in New York a couple of years ago were Amelie and War Paint. I liked A Bronx Tale in the theater, but I never listen to it. Come from Away was better in the theater than on CD, too.

Watching the last of Shoah: Four Sisters. The interview is taking place in Hungarian while the questions are in French.

Now on to something funnier. I'm starting the Life Aquatic Life with Steve Zissou. I haven't seen it since it it first came out, which is 14 years ago.
