Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

TOD:

I’ve been making a simple yet irresistible pie lately made only of bittersweet (I like 90%) chocolate, heavy cream and butter in a walnut or pecan crust. Gimme some.

I noticed with some amusement that a former dear reader is on Facebook using MY line - the Tube of You, as if he made it up.  THIS is how popular this here site is. :)

No word from the London conductor about the overture this morning, as I had hoped, but I suspect he's busy with one project or another.

I have no plans today, so I will return to my current Babes in Toyland project.  I need to finish this round of work by mid-November, and I had to put it on hold while I finished that overture.

Last night I read about Stritch's life from her birth in 1925 to her starring in the national tour of Call Me Madam.  I am enjoying it.

I was fortunate to work with her on several New York City Gay Men's Chorus concerts and a Jerry Mitchell-directed benefit tribute to Ethel Merman.  She was tough, but I loved her.

Cleanup went easily this morning, and I got a nice email from the conductor about the overture.  So far, the day's going all right.

I never thought I’d be saying this, but last week in Cincinnati I had the pumpkin pie at a Frisch’s (Big Boy) for my first time ever, and it was to die for. The nutmeg and other spices, the texture, everything was in perfect balance and it was so satisfying. I was full from my meal, but if the whole pie had been sitting in front of me, I would have eaten two or three slices.

Speaking of which, DR Jrand69... the Big Boy, the Brawny Lad, the Buddy Boy (ham sandwich with their tartar-ish (?) sauce) and seemingly everything else that’s traditional there... it’s all alive and well in beautiful SW Ohio.

They even still have what would appear to be their nod to Cincinnati Chili on the menu, but it really isn’t quite that. This was a Big Boy item, nationally, from way back. The couple of times I had it were at a Bob’s Big Boy in Los Angeles.

Before my dad died, ab=nd I was home for Thanksgiving, I bought several pumpkin pies from the Middletown Frisch's for the dinner.  You're right.  They were excellent!

Oy! one of the cats - I suspect Annabelle - just vomited on the kitchen rug.  I guess I'll be doing laundry this morning.
