CHANGE OF HEART

On April 25, 1959, my mom was watching Gunsmoke when I decided to interrupt the broadcast.  Over the years, she has mentioned to me several times that she never got to see the end of that particular episode.  Lo and behold, I found Season Four of Gunsmoke on Amazon, including the episode that aired on the night I was born.  It was entitled Change of Heart.  So, for Mother’s Day 2025, my mom and I finished watching the show we started watching about 66 years ago.  And we played Scrabble while my sweet Josephine got lots of pets from her Grammy and tried to sit in my lap.  It was a good day.

The year has been incredible eventful, and I can’t believe it is already May!  I haven’t posted many new recipes lately – a few of the new dishes I tried didn’t make the cut, and when I cook dishes in my trusted “rotation,” I generally only update the recipes with additional details, tweaks, or hints for success.  I still go to Fausto’s once a week for date-night, and it keeps me sane (scratch that, “happy,” is more accurate).  And I’ve watched some great movies and tasted some fantastic wines (I’m into Brunello these days!)  Looking forward to my next trip to Jamaica, and considering doing the Wine Spectator tasting weekend in October!  (Do I dare plan that as a solo trip? I am seriously thinking yes).
