Sadly the entertainment world lost an icon, Dick Clark, passed away from a
heart attack yesterday while in Saint John's Hospital in Santa Monica for a
procedure the previous day....
I LOVED American Bandstand!
This is Mr. Clark's Malibu home....^
Last night I made miso soup with a bunch of stuff in it, recipe tomorrow. I
also, after hearing Bill talk about having a lemon martini I decided to be a
copy-cat and make one too.... ice, citrus vodka, and a lemon....
Deeeeeelightful!

From my friend, Lynn Helbing.... love this:
It just occurred to me... with all the noise the media is making about Mitt
Romney's wealth, I don't recall such bluster and hand-wringing over the Kennedy
fortune. Or, for that matter, John Kerry, and the Heinz fortune.
Or the fact that John Kerry gave virtually nothing to charity while Romney
gave something on the order of $4 million ... in addition to giving away his
entire inheritance from his father.
Oh. Wait. I just remembered something. Romney is Republican.
Kerry and Kennedys are
Democrats.
Also, Romney worked for his money.
Kennedy inherited his.
And Kerry married it.
Never mind. Nothing to see here folks. Move
along.

Garlic Day
National
Garlic Day promotes the many uses of Garlic. And, there certainly are many uses.
It's a vegetable. Its' a herb. It is used in recipes around the world. Garlic
has ben used medicinally for thousands of years. And, Garlic is believed to ward
off evil spirits. About the only negative thing you can say about it, is that it
can negatively affect an otherwise romantic evening.
