Tonight, we are attending a surprise online birthday celebration for Daniel, who was paired with the first lab we raised for Guiding Eyes for the Blind. I believe he is on his 3rd dog since Yeager.

Hope you all had a good time, Singdaw!

But I did order the three Bunuel movie set. Looking forward to that. i love The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie.

I was thinking about getting that, but I have two of the three movies, already, so I didn't want to double dip.

Has there been any recent news of the Sondheim Bunuel project?

It has been shelved. Sondheim and Ives, who was writing the book, have parted ways.

Darn. $:-\$

George · « **Reply #126 on:** February 27, 2021, 11:38:26 PM »

I wonder if anything that Sondheim has written for it will ever be heard.

Had dinner with friends tonight. Felt good to be around people for a while. Cecil grilled golden trout. We had good wine. And a good few hours.

His garden was destroyed in the recent cold snap. He doesn't know if his olive trees will be back, and I don't know about mine. He lost all his citrus, many of his herbs, his eggplant, etc.

But some of his herbs are coming back. The parsley planted in the ground was growing -- just like the mint I have in the ground.

Oh, no! That's terrible!

Today at my sister's, we had quesadillas.

George · « **Reply #129 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:04:24 AM »

They were quite good and we all had too much!

We played a game of Phase 10, and I forget who won, but I lost.

After my mom left, my sister made this dessert that she found on a Facebook video.

George · « **Reply #132 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:14:39 AM »

You take a pie pastry, cut it so that it can wrap around a banana, add some Nutella in the middle, put the banana on it, cut the pie pastry decoratively and wrap it all up, then bake it until it's done.

George · « **Reply #133 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:15:11 AM »

It wasn't bad, but the pie pastry was too thick and didn't bend easily, so it didn't look good at all...it tasted okayly, though.

George · « **Reply #134 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:16:17 AM »

I brought one home with me and ate it not too long ago (long enough after our lunch and original dessert), but it was still much too much to eat this late!

George · « **Reply #135 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:16:44 AM »

I think if my sister tries it again, we decided to try it with puff pastry instead.

George · « **Reply #136 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:17:27 AM »

I've used that and it's much more malleable and lighter in texture so that it won't (hopefully) overpower the banana and Nutella...hopefully.

George · « **Reply #137 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:17:44 AM »

The concept seemed sound, though.

George · « **Reply #138 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:21:42 AM »

And the video made it look real easy, but I couldn't cut the pie pastry exactly the way it should've been cut, so I just had to try and wrap the pastry around the bananas.

George · « **Reply #139 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:22:27 AM »

Again, the concept was sound, just not the execution.

George · « **Reply #140 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:26:38 AM »

Tomorrow (actually, today, since it's after midnight), I have an online union meeting.

George · « **Reply #141 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:26:49 AM »

It's scheduled to only take about an hour and a half.

George · « **Reply #142 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:28:19 AM »

It more than likely will only take the hour and a half.

George · « **Reply #143 on:** February 28, 2021, 12:28:38 AM »

They've been pretty good about keeping the time limits in check.
