Oh, TOD

Before it was popular, when we lived in Michigan the second time, a delivery service from various restaurants in the area opened. You could even order from more than one restaurant. They would deliver the food to your table if you wanted. I got hooked on it.

I even used it when Keith invited an out of town business associate for dinner and I didn't have time to cook as I was at a luncheon. A friend told me to order from her favorite Italian restaurant. I called, spoke to the owner and he suggested a mean. I then ordered the delivery from the service. Once it arrived I transferred everything into nice dishes for serving.

She was right, it was delicious. We then began eating at the restaurant. I also have the recipe for the pasta we had that night.

Since leaving Michigan we haven't had a single meal delivered, including pizza. In Ashland no one delivered out that far.

I arrived at seven at the Coral Cafe for this little meeting/meal only to have an email saying they needed to push until nine. I told them my voice was getting shot and I needed to be on vocal rest for at least two days and said we'd reschedule. I had a great patty melt and fries, stopped at a Rite Aid and got some Mucinex-D, which will help, cut all my phlegm, more Ricola and some Sour Patch kids.

In the why? department: Kenneth Branagh is making a third Hercule Poirot film.

Why not?

I almost watched Something for Everyone before the trip. One of Angela Lansbury’s least remarkable roles.

All of these new delivery services are incredibly overpriced. However, at times, when I am stuck at home and not able to drive to the store, I have used them for fresh, hot, and often very tasty dinner.

I have been very lucky not to have missing items, or cold food. Maybe that has more to with the size of Puyallup, compared to say, L.A. Still, they are an expensive habit to get hooked on. I use Pizza Hut for delivery. I don’t order the pizza, bu I do like their pastas, but the price has soared, so I will drive over to Pizza Hut (they are directly accross the street from the condo.

Another Angela performance I love not mentioned in the obits was her Ruth in Pirates of Penzance.

Ever since I adopted my wheelchair, I have been a member of Safeway’s Fresh Pass (I think that is the name). For my yearly fee, I can have groceries delivered daily if I wanted to and could afford it. However, I am pissed about today’s delivery. Safeway does not allow tipping of their drivers. Today with out notifying me, they farmed out my delivery to DoorDash. Dashers live and die on their tips. I did not know, until after the driver was gone, that she was a Dasher.

Somewhere, packed away in the spare bedroom, or more likely in my storage shed in Tacoma, I have a beautiful 8X10 framed color photo of Angela Lansbury. The photo is signed. I paid a lot of money for it, but it is lovely.

I watched a lot of items on YouTube with Angela Lansbury today. I had never seen her acceptance speech when she received her “lifetime achievement” Oscar. A lovely speech relegated to the non televised ceremony.

She told a funny story about Johnny Depp wanting to discuss her Ruth. She figured he wanted to use something of her character in his PIRATES films.

Miss Blacklock (her real name is Michelle) and I still had some brain farts (technical term), and we're going to go through a couple of our scenes tomorrow before rehearsal starts, but we both had really did so much better tonight.
