Six!

[singdaw]

I did 500 crunches today.

[singdaw]

That bag of Doritos didn't know what hit it.

[John G.]

But, you know, when it comes to banana cream pie, it doesn’t have to be about me, me, ME!

[singdaw]

Good night, friends.

[singdaw]

And others.

[singdaw]

Tell it to Madame Rose.

The red grape olive oil cake was different and delicious. It had a crunchy exterior, but the interior was softer, almost undone. And yet it was cooked all the way through.

Tell it to Madame Rose.

I tried. But it was all about her.

[John G.]

People ate more than 3/4 of it, leaving me with a nice slice tomorrow.

[John G.]

It got the J.B. beak of approval.

[John G.]

Holly Hunter is wonderful in an episode of Succession.

It’s a red grape olive oil cake.

That looks wonderful!

So, I have a new deep-dish pie pan and want to make an apple and dried cranberry pie. But what do I want to plump the cranberries, but with what? Bourbon? Calvados? An orange liqueur? Hibiscus tea?

Oooh bourbon or orange liquor sounds intriguing, how about you make one pie each way and send them to me and I’ll tell you which one is better

I left the house at 8 am and have just gotten back from a Little Mermaid band reading which Alan Menken dropped into for a minute*, and from yet another stunning production at WCSU ("WestConn") of Sunday in the Park With George where I was able to say a quick hi to Peter Filichia, their guest for the talkback.

So it was a pretty fine day, but now I have to scrounge something to eat and look through all the music I have to play for a church service tomorrow. I believe no celebrity guests are expected at the church service.


*Would I make that up? The choral director at this school knows loads of Broadway folks, and Menken apparently lives within spitting distance of the school, so he came by to say hi to the cast and encourage them. He won't see the show, he'll be in London.

WOW!



Of course you’re wrong about the lack of celebrities at church….








You’ll be there!

Back from assembling act two - a bit rougher than act one, but we'd worked that more. We got through it all and I had enough time to run the entire act from finish to start, sharpen everything, give direction, so that was fun.

After that, I had a chicken fried steak at Coral Cafe. Excellent.

I think I'll actually try and watch a motion picture now.

Good idea.

[John G.]

Watching the first Godzilla. I will finish it tomorrow.

[John G.]

Interesting that we haven’t really seen the monster yet, though he has been discussed.

[John G.]

Fun stuff. More tomorrow.

[John G.]

We danced merengue tonight to Hot, Hot, Hot in memory of David Johansen, aka Buster Pointdexter.

[John G.]

The last of the New York Dolls.

[John G.]

I've started Stacy Abrams' latest romance thriller, Power of Persuasion.

[John G.]

I'm not entirely persuaded at this point.

[John G.]

I started a BBC collection of radio dramas based on Nancy Mitford novels.

[John G.]

But the first was so bad, I stopped. I like her novels too much.

[John G.]

Onward!
