Topic of the Day: yes.

I have no idea what my first cookies would've been, or even some of the earliest...probably the ubiquitous chocolate chip cookie.

Favorite packaged cookies are mostly Oreos and Nutter Butters.

vixmom · « **Reply #8 on:** September 18, 2025, 01:59:05 AM »

I have no idea.

vixmom · « **Reply #9 on:** September 18, 2025, 01:59:31 AM »

Well.one or two semi interesting things have happened

vixmom · « **Reply #10 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:00:07 AM »

Perhaps I'll bore you with them later

vixmom · « **Reply #11 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:01:17 AM »

Right now I very much want to ketchup with everyone's adventures, so I'll do a quick backwards look at all I've missed

vixmom · « **Reply #12 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:01:32 AM »

I hope you're all well

vixmom · « **Reply #13 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:01:58 AM »

I can tell you that several books hsve arrived

vixmom · « **Reply #14 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:02:37 AM »

I have yet been able to finish them all

vixmom · « **Reply #15 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:04:08 AM »

But I have dived in and read the beginning chapters of Annabelle and Thatch

vixmom · « **Reply #16 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:04:49 AM »

And also the first few chapters of Richard and Me

vixmom · « **Reply #17 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:06:36 AM »

I've also laughed over several clever parodies in Freddie's latest

vixmom · « **Reply #18 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:07:50 AM »

And gotten some excellent advice on wine tasting from John, which I can apply on our next visit to the East End wineries

vixmom · « **Reply #19 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:09:08 AM »

I hope you have all been well...but now I shall go ketchup and see what you've all been up to.

vixmom · « **Reply #20 on:** September 18, 2025, 02:09:33 AM »

And I shall try to be a more reliable visitor

TOD: Mallomars are in my memory as favorites from when I was really young.

These days: Black and white cookies, macarons, soft-baked chocolate chip cookies and oatmeal raisin cookies, oatmeal chocolate chip

Larry, is your publisher arranging any events for you, either in person or by Zoom?

elmore3003 · « **Reply #25 on:** September 18, 2025, 04:31:11 AM »

Good morning, all!

elmore3003 · « **Reply #26 on:** September 18, 2025, 04:31:48 AM »

I slept rather well last night, a very nice surprise.

Today would have been the 72nd birthday of John McGlinn. Take a moment to listen ro your favorite McGlinn recording, bootleg, or track. My favorite track remains this number from Babes in Toyland:

No, I'm sorry to say. He has no money for promotion or PR, nor do I. This is one reason why I initially tried to get a literary agent, to push the book to a major publisher, but after around 120 rejections, I gave up any hope of that ever happening. I am totally de word of mouth, and I'd love to get the book into the book club circles.
