THE WEEKEND ISN'T OVER YET

I had a marvelous 2 days with my son and wife. I gobbled til I wobbled plus some. Now it is back to basics until Christmas. Is there life after chocolate cake, brownie pie, Toll House pie and pumpkin pie? I couldn't let the occasion pass without trying them all as well as ham, turkey and cornish game hen. We had dinner with Cheryl's family and it was a wonderful time and I didn't once feel like an outsider.

I got home about 8 p.m. and was high as a kite after drinking a cup of coffee before I left. I put away the fall decorations, got out some more Christmas decor and then met my friend Marty for a 10 p.m. showing of "August Rush." I couldn't recommend a single movie more highly than this one especially if you have any appreciation at all for music. Phrases which came to my mind while viewing it were: juxtaposition of styles, caucophony of sounds, child prodigy. The culmination of the plot takes a little stretch of imagination but the music and all of the sounds were glorious. Please see this movie. I have to see it at least 2 more times and then I'll buy the DVD when I can find a previously viewed copy.

I hope your dinner and the company that you kept was as good as ours. The weekend isn't over yet. Wonder what else I can get into.
