Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Remember Nadiya who won the Great British Baking Show (GBBO)? Well, she has books out - not only her cooking book, but one about a Pakistani family (not sure how much it's based on her own family) and stories for children.

I only wathced part of The Voice tonight but Chris Blue was amazing. I didn't always like his falsetto but I loved watching him perform.

Oddly, Benji Schwimmer liked an Instagram post of mine overnight.

Also I checked out his Instagram and learned that Donyelle is battling breast cancer right now.

What was the post, flea? How interesting! I've taken a bunch of classes from him over the past several years, because he's still big on the west coast swing circuit.

It was the stage, lit but curtain closed, before my daughter's dance recital, in a local high school auditorium. I didn't tag anything, so not sure how we would even have come across it, but coincidentally it was about dance.

Huh, weird.

I did see on FB that SYTYCD starts again Monday with "adults" again (in quotes because lord knows some of those 18 year olds are babies, but better than 8 year olds)

Uh weird--maybe he's on a liking rampage, I just went on Instagram for the first time in a week or two to see your photo and he liked one of mine too! (A shot of coffee) strange.

Maybe he is a lurker! That was the only season I watched, and I thought he and Donyelle were adorable.

The Great British Baking Show starts up tonight again on PBS --two episodes in a row: Cake and Biscuits. (Obviously not a new season since the original four are all there.)

I don't know what the Russian twins dance on SYTYCD was about but I had this viscreal reaction and was crying.
