I am home from a lovely 2.5 hour luncheon at Nice Matin at 79th Street:

I hadn't seen my friends Richard and Sherri since they came to my Sondheim lecture in 2017. There was much gossip, reputations made and destroyed, and lots of l;aughs. The lunch was delicious. I had the burger, Richard had gnocchi and bacon, and Sghari had the Norwegian salmon. I justr fed three cats and I need a nap.

What frosting did you decide to use? Would a cream cheese frosting work?

I’m just going to use the buttercream out of the tub. No milk or cream added.

Sorry to hear about Pomohac - a lovely person, he was one of the R&H folks I dealt with a lot and one who was responsible for taking on The Brain from Planet X.

I just finished trimming back the olive tree. I hadn’t done it since last year’s storm. And I wanted to strip a few cups of the green leaves because they make a delicious tea when dried.

Man, it’s hot out there.

He loved The Brain from Planet X! He and I even traveled to New Jersey to see a community theatre production. I always had a good time with him.

I have known my friend Richard since April 1973, nearly fifty years. Here we are at lunch today. His wife Shari took the photo

So sorry for your loss, Larry.

It’s only 86, but it feels hotter if you’re working in it.

I am sure it does, especially if you aren't in the shade.

Hello, everyone.

Jeanne · « **Reply #81 on:** April 30, 2022, 03:31:05 PM »

Larry, I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of your friend. You'd mentioned him so many times that I almost felt like I knew him. Vibes to you and his family.

Jeanne · « **Reply #82 on:** April 30, 2022, 03:31:51 PM »

It sounds like a lovely lunch yesterday, though. I'm very glad you were able to get together.

Jane, the two recommended eye drops are both OTC:

Refresh Relieva (his favorite, no preservatives)
Refresh Optive Gel Drops

I ordered both from Amazon.

Jeanne · « **Reply #84 on:** April 30, 2022, 03:35:30 PM »

Do you know anyone who has had the plugs inserted? (Plugs to help dry eyes.)

Jeanne · « **Reply #85 on:** April 30, 2022, 03:36:57 PM »

John G, has your mother read Rosamunde Pilcher's COMING HOME? I do love that book. I also like her WINTER SOLSTICE.

Jeanne · « **Reply #86 on:** April 30, 2022, 03:37:23 PM »

TTFN.

Thanks. I have Refresh Digital PF & Refresh Tears, no preservatives, as those are the ones I found to buy. The Digital drops have an extra ingredient polysorbate. I have no idea if this is a benefit to me or not since I prefer the plain Refresh Tears.

Please let me know if you notice a difference between the two drops you ordered, and if you have a preference. Once I use up my Digital PF drops I will try the one you prefer.
