Just tried a new egg salad recipe. Not sure yet how I like it:

I think it need to sit awhile.

That just looks too complicated for me, and I don't have half the ingredients anyway. ::)

It was also just reported that three-time Tony winner Hinton Battle passed away yesterday at only 67.  He won his three Best Featured Actor in a Musical Tonys for "Sophisticated Ladies," "The Tap Dance Kid" and "Miss Saigon."

Not another one! :(

I just learned that Betty Auman, who was in charge of acquisitions for the Music Division of the Library of Congress, when I met her in 1987, has died. She was a dear friend until our friendship fell apart in 2010 in a disastrous concert and recording debacle of Life Begins at 8:40 and her failure to replace an incompetent conductor. At the moment my emotions are all over the place, remembering both the great times in London and the various concerts at the Library of Congress and the frustrations, betrayals, and ugliness after 2010.

That's ridiculous. Eggland's Best Eggs, when hardboiled, are impossible to peel; I think they;re feeding chickens something that makes the shells inpenetrable.

And there are way too many ingredients.

Not that I was asked ;)

Keith & I also saw Gone With the Wind at the Carthay Circle Theatre.  It was a disgrace that such a beautiful theater was demolished.

Because the Carthay Circle Theatre was a Fox theater I went with Keith several times for work related errands.  I think the main office was in the theater, can't remember for sure.

The young lady at the insurance agency said "they've been having problems with their printing machine" so she was happy to take my check and give me a receipt.

And yet, they sent them out like that.  It is good you live close by.

Chicago was the first thing I saw her in, on tour in L.A.

Kiss of the Spider Woman was my Chita pinnacle. Saw her in it on her last night before the cast change.
