Ladies and Gentlemen; Frannell

If I get one more fruitbasket delivered in honor of my guest blogger I will go smoothie crazy. You heard me. Blender bender.

She was amazing and a treat to keep up my tome during the Countess and my sojourn to the homeland. Fran, you are literary viagra. The trip was amazing and pix will be available shortly. If you've never been to Sicily, thanks. We want to keep it that way. It's unspoiled and beautiful. Largely in part to the mafia.

I'm back and let the games begin.
