We offered up smoked turkey and sausage, mac and cheese, and fresh green beans with tomatoes. Plus, handmade snickerdoodles.

The clients at the center were appreciative. Some came back for seconds. Others stopped back to say thanks.

I have seen only a few new movies, but I enjoyed:


Little Richard: I Am Everything
Oppenheimer
John Wick 4
Asteroid City
Juniper
The Lost King
Moving On



Of these, I've only seen Oppenheimer.  I think that that might be only new movie that I saw this year.  Can that be right?? :o

You must have seen other movies, just nothing worth mentioning ;)

You're right.  My friend Margo and I saw Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One. ::)

Danced a hustle routine with my friend Shiela to I Will Survive that had the crowd clapping along. Such a great song.

Hope Jrand begins Kritzer World - better than a flu shot.
Question for the class:  Do you know the TV series Parks and Recreation?

I didn't. It ran from 2009 to 2015, but I just learned of it and started watching it a couple of weeks ago. As it takes place in the fictional town of Pawnee, Indiana, I first thought of asking DR Jrand73. But since it was heretofore completely unknown to me, I was curious who else knew it.

It was a huge hit for a while. Made stars of several of its players, like Nick Offerman. I saw a couple of episodes. I always liked Amy Pohler.

Chris Pratt also started on that and now he's Star Lord in the Marvel Universe! ;)

George, you saw a Buster Keaton movie.

Yes, that's true.  Thanks for the reminder!  I guess I was only thinking of new movies in 2023.

It definitely is, even for as long as it's been around.

Last year (or was it two years ago), she (Margo's daughter) studied for a whole year in Japan.
