Has anyone every made sheet pan pies?  I have not, but it sounds intriguing. And maybe easier.

No, like a pie but not in a round crust, but covering a whole sheet pan. Maybe I am thinking of sheet pan cakes. I guess a sheet pan wouldn't be deep enough; you'd need to do it in a 9x13 pan.

Here's a pic (not mine, but I should have a few of my own somewhere) of John Angevine of Angevine Farms, and the Robert Morton 3-manual pipe organ that sits in the "Christmas Barn".

Those items in the background are piano rolls.

If he's playing when we're there, I will grab some audio or video.

That apple pie from Farmer's Market is really good. Great pastry.

Friday evening greetings!  Richard and I had a very quiet Thanksgiving Day yesterday.  We picked up our dinner in Hamilton 1pm and ate as soon as we got home.  The kitchen was all cleaned up before the time we would, under normal circumstances, have been welcoming our guests.  That left the day to watch football and for me to do some online shopping.

One thing that drives me up the wall (no mean feat) is when opera singers are asked to laugh and it's that phony baloney shmacting 101 forced laugh - something I noticed on the classic opera recordings I've been listening to, including the Puccini stuff.  Where is a director to say, "Nobody laughs like that, stop it.

Today my sister and niece and I upheld our Black Friday tradition of crafting together for a couple of hours.  This time we convened on Facebook Messenger from Michigan, Florida, and Ohio.

Had some more of the pumpkin chocolate chip thing and a few other sweets and I'm sure that I'm now at 1000 calories, so that's it for today.

Yesterday our friend called to tell us her 11 year old daughter has it.  She just feels like she has a cold.

Before going to visit her grandparents she, her father, and sister tested negative for covid.

They then quarantined for four days before driving to spend Thanksgiving together. 

The day they arrived, due to the cold symptoms, instead of heading to the family they needed to retest for covid and the results were positive.  Fortunately the symptoms began BEFORE they got together and not after.
