    Molly, you are such a d.q.! And I have never known someone who goes to Disneyland as often as you do, except perhaps the Mendoza's, who even honeymooned there...

Kathryn, do NOT be jealous of me going to the opera. It was weird. They were wearing these bulky animal costumes and clonking boots which might have been okay except that their footsteps drowned out the sound of the orchestra (Oh look! A band!).

Because I am all abuzz with eagerness for fall and winter, for turkeys and dried leaves and Santa. I should start cooking again this fall. Fall foods are my favorite.
