Can you calm sideways?

Enter page ten!

A page for all seasons.

[Jeanne]

To answer Freddie’s question, some restaurants are closed, others are open. I suspect everyone is playing it by ear. We don’t know when the winds will be gone and the fires contained.

[Jeanne]

Can you calm up?

Don’t even think it.

[Jane]

We will need a MAJOR donation effort. I read that the LAPD doesn’t have enough supplies, and, of course, the shelters will need food, clothing, blankets, and so on. I don’t know how well we were prepared, either. But I like Mayor Karen Bass. We shall see.

So many people without.  I hope most of them have family and friends to help them.

[Jane]

Heartbreaking.  I hope you can avoid breathing the bad air.

I have the air purifier on full-time. It hasn’t been noticeably bad indoors. I haven’t gone outdoors today, both to avoid bad air and to help keep the roads clear.

Excellent.  If you go outside your covid masks should help some.

[Jane]

The windy wind  has calmed down again.

Keep reporting this.  Do you know how fast the wind is?

[Jeanne]

Vibes to all of you in the snow and the cold and to all dealing with health issues.

My brother said is first choice to eat last night was closed.  They walked to another restaurant and it was opened.  I don't know what they did for dinner tonight.

Yes, I hope people are pulling out their masks.

I'm waiting for an update.  It is possible there isn't any new news to report.

Did he have to evacuate?

[Jeanne]

Oops, my vibe post overlooked all of us dealing with the fires. Vibes to all Angelenos.

I haven’t seen a lot of updates. The nature of the news business or nothing’s changed?

Not that I know of.  I saw that Kamala Harris's home is in the evacuation area but I'm sure she doesn't live near my brother.

She has a home here? I didn’t know that.

The news goes for the big headlines and I haven't found much on his area.  I consider that good news because if the shopping area of Brentwood was buring the news would report it.

[Jeanne]

Vibes to all for everything.

TTFN.

[Jane]

The son-in-law of a friend of mine is driving, along with two other firefighters, his fire truck from Colorado to LA to help out.

[Jane]

Vibes to your DR Jeanne.

Remember that the news crews can’t get access to every area. But I haven’t heard of the fire reaching your brother’s area.

Thanks.

Just saw this:

BRUSH FIRE - SUNSET FIRE EVACUATION ORDER 01/08/2025 INC#2526

Brush Fire - SUNSET FIRE EVACUATION ORDER; INC#2526; 05:34PM; 2350 N Solar Dr; https://bit.ly/3W9GW5a; Hollywood Hills West; Approximately 10 acres burning between Runyon Canyon and Wattles Park. A Mandatory Evacuation Order is now in place for Laurel Canyon Blvd (on the west) to Mulholland Dr (on the north) to 101 Freeway (on the east) down to Hollywood Blvd (on the south).

[DR Iris]

Hopeful that this will be contained before it reaches populated areas.

[DR Iris]

I remember that matchbook.

Red with gold letters, I recall.

Yes indeed it was!

And THANK YOU!!!!! Is that their actual recipe, or you've just figured it out yourself? It sure sounds right on!

Chas, I found the recipe on an L.A. food blog that I once followed.

[DR Iris]

“Recently I was craving the Cheese and Onion Pie from Cafe Swiss the long-gone restauran once located at 450 Rodeo Drive. I used to eat there with my Nana and Papa Warner and always ordered the same thing. Cafe Swiss originally opened in 1950 and closed in 1985. The beautiful back patio was the scene of many wonderful lunches for me and my grandparents. The continental fare was peppered with some typical Swiss dishes and the Cheese and Onion pie has remained in my heart (and probably arteries too) forever. Here is the recipe. Enjoy!”

Major vibes for family and friends of DR Jane, and everyone affected by these terrible fires.
Please keep us updated, Jane.

Do they still have Snow Cones?

We call them raspas and they’re sold everywhere around town. Love ‘em.

We call them snowballs, and they are often layered with vanilla or chocolate frozen custard. 😋
