When we lived in Pennsylvania we purchased fresh Cortland apples that were delicious.  They made the best apple pies I ever baked.

Funny, but, to me, Opals are so sweet I can't eat them. Yet Galas and Fujis have a nice tart level that I like.

Stacey Abrams was quite marvelous. Great pianist accompanied her. When she sang "Epiphany" from Sweeney Todd, you could feel the goosebumps rise on your skin.

She was quite wonderful. There was a local TV anchor who asked her questions, so it wasn't scripted. though I'm sure she's answered some of the questions quite often before.

The house was packed and they were ready to applaud, whether she talked about the restrictive new voting laws in Texas or shared stories of her work in the Georgia legislature.

Did she talk at all about the supreme court deciding to take up the very restrictive abortion law from Mississippi?

But there was a bit of tension earlier in the evening. Two women ushers were talking with our service rep about covid. And the topic got on to ivermectin. Another woman barged in to the conversation to preach how this is the answer to covid and that it was the only treatment that worked. Voices raised, claws were bared and then all of a sudden it stopped.

I was on my phone. I didn't say a word.

Been working for hours now - first on some prep work for the two new releases, and then on proofing all the Carol Christmas stuff so we can get everything to the licensing company.

Needed a treat, so it was K's Donuts. Earlier, I had the rest of the rigatoni pasta with the rest of the ground hamburger, onions, butter, and cheese - very good. Now, listening to music.

It's easy to do, but it just takes a long time to find them, mark them, and then cut them.
