Congrats on the successful Kritzerland show, and the pictures in your notes were wonderful!

BK, the show sounds absolutely wonderful, with several of my favorite holiday songs sung by several of my favorite singers.

I met Kerry, just after finishing he Broadway run in White Christmas, at the 40th birthday party for the show's conductor, Rob Berman. I also loved her in the Encores! production of Promises Promises. Why haven't you produced a solo album for her?

Last night, thanks to DR John G, the cats and I decided to watch Eloise at Christmastime, which I was surprised to find charming and untimatelymoving. Even with padding, Julie Andrews is way too pretty for Hillary Knight's wonderfully drawn Nanny. I loved Gavin Creel and wish he were still around to record The Prince in Jubilee. I particularly loved his "Winter Wonderland" with Eloise. The dog was perfect casting.

My first NY trip was the Christmas break, 1966, and the slush when you stepped off the curb was higher than your ankles. Perhaps it's that first trip that makes NYC in December and January the only place I ever want to live in. Given all my cuirrent mobility issues, I haven't been too crazy about living in New York, but the movie reaffiormed my love for this amazing city.

Then, we switched to Netflix and began The Merry Gentlemen, which was everything Eloise at Christmastime was not. It was one more "leading person gives up Big City to return Home to find happiness," onl;y it was worse than the Hallm,ark movie it emulated. I lasted 30 minutes before I turned it off in disgust.

In Paris this weekend, Tramp once again promised to pardon the Jan. 6 criminals and stated 6 committee membners - Benny Thompson, Liz Chaney, etc. - should b e jailed for persecuting him. The punishment for treason should be death, and it's a pity Merrick Garland to move and a bigger pity that Tramp is still alive.

On Friday I got an email telling me that for NO extra charge, I could switch to a different kind Xfinity account and increase my download speed.

And I would get a free new modem.   I signed up.....

And then suddenly my old modem wouldn't accept the new speed and I had NO internet.....

Then suddenly this morning, I do.  Although my new modem will not arrive until between 11:15 a.m. and 1:15 p.m. today.

A mystery.

TOD:  The appetizer that springs to mind is (are?) pigs in a blanket, or more accurately frankfurters in a blanket.

and Skip makes a delicious concoction called Gougères, which I see google seems to refer to as French cheese puffs

Here's a wikipedia entry on Gougères

That must have been perplexing. 

Did your old system get shut off when you asked for a new system?

Jrand, did you still have Internet available from another source while that happened?

The power went off for five minutes last night after I went to sleep. Not cool when you're hooked up to a machine.
