I'll take a BLT and some apple crisp to go--had my quota of chocolate cake last weekend. The diner could do worse than getting the Portillo's resipe for their chocolate cake!

Gotta saunter off to a meeting - but there is a song - "What Did Dela-Ware?" She wore a New Jersey. What did Missa sip - she sipped a Minta Sota.....

I think I am in over my head.

We shall start over tomorrow...
