Oh yes, I should get on with that. (I'm a beneficiary of the ceramics textbook my grandfather wrote.) Gotta get my three dollars or whatever's left for the class action claimants after the lawyers get theirs.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Usually lobster rolls are made with either mayo or melted butter, and it's pretty common for the mayo-based ones to have lemon and dill in the dressing, so I'd say that all works. (People often have strong opinions on whether butter or mayo is the proper way to make them.)

Either option tastes great but I've not heard of combining mayo and butter on one roll before.

This was what I thought I had heard, so mixing them seemed like it might be controversial

Help I'm on a train headed into the city to see Tartuffe and I forgot about Santacon. I'm only at Irvington and the ratio of drunk idiot to regular passenger is alarmingly high and rising.

Oh, dear. Reminds me of being in the Philly train station on St. Patrick's Day some years ago. You have my sympathy.
I'm currently freezing in a Cheesecake Factory waiting for a friend for lunch. It's winter. Why cold air blowing? And there are ceiling vents every 4 ft., I swear. No escape. On the bright side, food and a friend. I'll take it.

I’m on a train on my way to a much smaller city where I am told there is a Santa Crawl but we think maybe not until later in the evening. I’m going for tea at the historical society, very different vibe

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sitting warm and cozy at home. I am forced to go to a different dog park for the next few months because my usual park is just jammed with events and has inadequate parking. Tennis championships, pickleball, soccer, and the Ice Arena, War Memorial Auditorium, and Parker Playhouse. Pretty much every day for the last couple of weeks, I get there and find people directing traffic to special parking sections. When I can't find a place to park, the dog gets very frustrated with me.
I absolutely love that there is so much happening in my city all the time, but it is at the cost of my practical needs at times. Fortunately, there are other dog parks.
Now I am debating cleaning some section of my terribly neglected condo, or going for a swim. I got my lab test report this morning and everything was just fine, except my cholesterol, which sucks, so changes have to happen. A summer of living in dairy country across the way from fresh farm eggs did not do my arteries any favors.
