At the Louisville Costco, I saw dried blueberries, which are no longer at my Costcos. So I bought two bags. They'll never go bad.

Only two bags

I just ordered 4 pounds of dried cherries from Michigan. Shipping is 1 cent more than the cost of the cherries. Still the outrageous cost is less than buying small bags of dried cherries locally, plus they don't taste as good.

I used to buy dried cranberries and cherries from Amazon.

I always keep the Costco dried cherries on hand. They are delicious.

Friday morning greetings! Thank you for the lovely birthday wishes to:

BK and DRs George, Singdaw, Elmore, ChasSmith, Freddie, and JRand.

That could have been seven separate posts.

My daily iron supplement looks just like an M&M™. But it's not nearly as much fun.

Are they very tart? Tart hurts my teeth.

Maybe next time I will try the Costco brand before ordering from Michigan. These will last a very long time. Now that I don't bake with them, or make fudge anymore, I only use them in my oatmeal.

Listened to a bit of Schwanda on the Tube of You - delightful - found a cheap used copy and snagged it.

Picked up a couple of packages and am back and making today's meal - sausage pizza.

I think you'll really enjoy it. The great Polka and Fugue are wonderful concert pieces but I was surprised to see they do not occur together in the opera. The overture is truly gorgeous as well. I have always wanted to see a production. The Met performed it in English in the 1930s and I always wished Levine would bring it back to the repertoire.

Annabelle is in a you-must-hold-me-and-pet-me dither tonight, poor little baby. Of the three, she is the lap cat. Thatch and Stella hate being held, but they love to snuggle up close to me and nap.

BK, I hope you get a chance to watch the Callas Act Two of Tosca.

I think we're going to out and look at some Christmas lights in the neighborhood. I saw what looked to be some big displays during the day.

I got a lovely Thanksgiving email from dormer DR Ben's spouse Anthony. He included a photo of their Christmas decor, which made me want to grab my walker, schlep down to their apartment, and walk several flights just to visit.

That’s beautiful !

Perfect, DR Singdaw! The meager celebration we had planned for today had to be cancelled because Richard is not feeling well. So that picture is the closest I’m going to get to having a birthday cake.

I don’t know what I was dreaming but I woke Up this morning because someone was shouting about the advantages of the health care system in Canada vs the US system.
