Four!

And then we have the vegan member who ate chicken enchiladas at the pastor's open house today.

Seven to go!

Yes, but I had a special request for the mints, so I don't think I need two gluten-free things.

Got it

But I do think that purple and orange meringues would look awesome on the table,

I agree.

A divorced mother with a teenage daughter found our church during the pandemic and joined us for our zoom services. We didn't meet them in person for several weeks.

So when I found out the daughter was vegan, I have made sure to accommodate her needs. I want them to feel wanted.

That is nice and I am sure it will be appreciated.

And the mother is gluten-free, as well as a grandson of one of our members (Said grandson doesn't attend very often, but when he did when we had a coffee hour, he was surprised to see I had planned to accommodate him.)

I think the thought alone is always appreciated.

Sometimes it is difficult to stick to a self imposed diet.

DR George, the only other person I know that got J&J (probably because she lives near you) got a full dose Moderna booster today. She went with full dose due to her health issues. Have you asked your doctor for a recommendation?

Jane · « **Reply #100 on:** October 30, 2021, 05:26:49 PM »

Oh, and she got the booster at Kaiser.

It was a pretty relaxed day.

singdaw · « **Reply #102 on:** October 30, 2021, 05:49:22 PM »

Got a few minor things done, and some exercise in.

singdaw · « **Reply #103 on:** October 30, 2021, 05:50:29 PM »

Does anyone still have a local "Devil's Night?" The night before Halloween. It used to be a big thing growing up in Connecticut. I did not participate, however.

singdaw · « **Reply #104 on:** October 30, 2021, 05:51:02 PM »

Tomorrow is very early day, so I will bid you all goodnight.

Jane · « **Reply #105 on:** October 30, 2021, 05:51:25 PM »

I never heard of Devil's Night until we lived on the East Coast. I thought it was a horrible idea.

I haven't, yet. I still need to make an appointment for my annual check-up.

George · « **Reply #107 on:** October 30, 2021, 05:53:09 PM »

I'm now downtown, just about to go into the theater to usher for Lady Day.... I'm sure it'll be really good.

Until later!

My friend and her husband went to Kaiser and were asked which booster, J&J, Pfizer, Moderna full or half dose. Her husband took the half dose & she took the full. They decided on their own which they wanted. I had thought it was her doctor who suggested the full dose.

Jane · « **Reply #109 on:** October 30, 2021, 06:41:02 PM »

'night

John G. · « **Reply #110 on:** October 30, 2021, 07:54:38 PM »

I finally got my books autographed. Even thought I was last in line, Sedaris made time for me.

With an earlier guest, he mentioned something about nobody really loses their nose. I informed him that wasn't exactly true. Ann Miller had lost her nose, and her false nose would sometimes fly off when she did her tap twirls. I think he'll have fun googling that.

Then met a friend for dinner. It was a wonderful meal. I hada burger with roasted tomatoes and jalapenos on it, plus avocado. Their onion rings disappeared as if by magic.

John G. · « **Reply #113 on:** October 30, 2021, 07:58:53 PM »

I also saw two of my old articles still hanging on the wall. That was nice.

John G. · « **Reply #114 on:** October 30, 2021, 08:00:09 PM »

While waiting in line, I finished off The Lincoln Highway. ,It was good, but not in the same league as his first two books. Folks at the performance were liking it more than me.

John G. · « **Reply #115 on:** October 30, 2021, 08:01:44 PM »

I've now started to watch The Birds. It may be 40 years since I last saw this movie. I'm liking the beginning. "Tippi" Hedren (the quotes were in the titles) is quite good in this. Better than Marnie.

John G. · « **Reply #116 on:** October 30, 2021, 08:48:42 PM »

I need to get to bed.

John G. · « **Reply #117 on:** October 30, 2021, 08:49:06 PM »

yet I am really into The Birds.

John G. · « **Reply #118 on:** October 30, 2021, 08:49:38 PM »

I guess I'll finish it tomorrow.

John G. · « **Reply #119 on:** October 30, 2021, 08:49:49 PM »

Let's move on ...
