They don’t make TV food personalities like Fanny Cradock anymore, but I so wish they did. Thank goodness for You Tube.

I prefer it with sour cherry preserves, but one of my favorite British treats.

Not if you’ve been assured you won’t have to either face re-election, or you’ll be backed with unlimited re-election funds.

You think there will be an election? A real one?

If only Schumer and Jeffries were up to the task of leading, but they just seem to want to let the next election, which probably won’t happen, fix things.

I am really surprised he hasn’t said a word to defend Canada - or at least let Trump know he’s King and the Commonwealth exists.

Well, we are about to find out, I guess.

Very sorry to hear this. Love Julie Montagu’s work and my sympathies to her, Luke and their whole family.

Walking with toddlers is much like walking with a dog, just different types of puddles everywhere.

It should have been called a Monty Python.

Surprised there hasn’t been an earth tremor from Kay Graham and Ben Bradlee rolling over in their graves.

No, the most dangerous thing is that those who have actually taken an oath to defend the US Constitution and have the power to do something, either won't because they don't have the backbone, or are in on it and have put their personal benefit over their oath.

Fools and their money ... as they say. No Murdoch fan, but given his advanced age and the rapid audience and influence defection from even his news outlets, what's that going to do for Harry?

I took typing in High School in the 80’s and our teacher drilled the β€œtwo space” rule into us until it became muscle memory. You’d think someone would have created an auto-correct in some word processing program to correct it for Gen X and Boomers by now.

Given their new focus has switched from news to fiction, seems apt.

Very glad to see this. The King has had a wonderful relationship with the Jewish Community over the years and so glad to see him make this public gesture. His Grandmother, Alice, would be pleased.

But they won’t. And that’s the problem.

Whitey was a neighbor of my grandparents in Ft. Lauderdale and was such a great guy. When he found out my son started playing baseball, he gave him a signed ball β€œto a future Yankee”, so my son’s uniform number was always 16 to honor him.

I-freakin-O! The win is all the sweeter given what Oregon did to OSU in the fall with that technicality.

Nothing brings an abrupt end to Christmas spirit than putting your kids on planes back to their young adult lives. Daughter to Chicago and back to work Monday. Son to Colorado for last semester at CU Boulder and graduation in May. πŸ₯²

Something tells me the Corgis prefer the β€˜flunkies’. And instead of sulking, Andrew may want to reflect a bit upon β€œreaping and sowing”.

I must admit a guilty pleasure of watching old Brit cooking shows on Yoi Tube - and Fanny is a favorite! Not sure I’d eat anything she cooked, but she definitely makes an impression.
