"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

What are your guys' weekend plans?

I don't have weekend plans, but I neglected to mention that I saw Jen K.(now, Jen Spring) on Tuesday.

Even though she's just across the Bay in Oakland, I hadn't seen her in 2 and a half years! Last time I saw her was when the Red Sox came to town vs. the A's and she had an extra ticket. Shortly after that her father died unexpectedly and she was dealing with that, and then Covid etc.

Anyway, she and her DH have a lovely little cottage with a creek that curves through their backyard. So we sat out on her deck and talked, then got some Korean food to go and ate that in a park, then returned with coffee to her deck. Four hours of catching up flew by easily.

There is a food truck festival in the town TCG works in that he helped to coordinate. So, we need to make an appearance there. Other than that, no plans.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

That sounds lovely, David. Any update on the cake decision? Inquiring minds, and all...

Food truck festivalsnd ren faires sound amazing. I would enjoy those plans!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Getting together with a friend for dinner (or possibly lunch - she's got some stuff going on that I'm being flexible to accommodate), using her as an excuse to avoid a game night my BFF & her DH host. (Usually I like most of the people quite well, but I am by FAR the leftiest person who attends, don't even want to be around some of them this close to the recall vote). Should be fun - I finally get to give her her bday present (msbelle, that print that I was so excited about at the art show at Epcot) - her bday was in February.

Punishingly Intricate

I'll be icing and elevating my leg after I had a Baker's cyst burst yesterday. It was incredibly painful, and I couldn't put any weight on my leg all day, but it's MUCH better today. But, OW!!!

This is the trip you were googling spas for?

I went with the Fuerst Pueckler. Which has raspberry whipped cream and raspberry filling in the middle and chocolate ganache on top.
