Dear Julia,
In honor of your centennial, I will now tell you that our restaurant-style ten burner stove was named after you.
And here I am reminded of the limerick you recited in honor of your cooking partner Jacque during one of your programs:
There once was a chef from Lyon
His knife work was tres bon,
His charcuterie was very nice
And his sausage wasn't bad either.
You live on, dear Julia

Nora Ephron RIP
It hasn't even been a week and we're already missing Nora Ephron's voice.
Her POV was incomparable, but we'll try to describe it: Tart but sweet, she made her point but not at anyone's expense, except maybe her own. I mean, really, who else would have the courage to title a book "I'm Not Happy About My Neck."
I remember when Crazy Salad came out. It was probably the first book of hers I bought. Even though our backgrounds were dramatically different, I could relate. When she published Heartburn, probably the funniest roman a clef ever written, and, no doubt, the first with recipes at the end, I cheered her on even more.
"Love, Loss & What I Wore" may not be Shakespeare, but it's still rock n' roll to me.
Nora, how could you leave us? Who will help us laugh at old age?

Momentum is good.
Jake Finds Home: A Musical Tale is taking on a life of its own. Music, documentary, animation are all moving forward.
Even Pearl is excited.
But then, she loves positive energy in whatever form it takes.

Paul Stookey to Narrate at Premiere of Jake Finds Home: A Musical Tale
We are happy to announce that Paul Stookey of Peter, Mary & Mary will narrate at the premiere of Jake Finds Home: A Musical Tale.
The composer will be announced after the project is further along. And while the September, 2012, premiere date has been moved back, there is even greater excitement, as the sharing of the story of Jake the dog--and how he found his way home--takes shape.
Thank you, Paul Stookey, for being part of JFH: AMT and for believing in us.

Jake Finds Home: A Musical Tale Makes Progress!
We hope/expect to announce a composer for Jake Finds Home: A Musical Tale mid-January 2012. A RFQ/RFP has now been extended to all potential composers for this project, we are awaiting response from a dog-related charity which would be the beneficiary of the premiere, and a venue has been identified for the premiere September 2012.
Progress!
Stay tuned!
And, as always, thanks for your support.....
