Good morning, CR, and I know JLA appreciates that, as I appreciated JLA and as--
.
The dog ate the cat, the cat ate the rat - the rat ate the cheese-

Speaking of food...I was up late last night making cookies to take to Ammo.
My theatre cookies are a tradition.
Perhaps you remember the tragi-comic masks from the one-act competition. The ones that some of the kids thought were cats and made several rude comments about?
It's important to follow the theme of the production.
Ammo is the lead in Blood Brothers...
I thought of doing cookies in the shape of blood drops and using a lot of red dye in the frosting. But that seemed a little macabre, even for Ammo.
I thought of using a gingerbread man cutter and joining two of them at the hip. BUt I wouldn't have had enough dough to make more than a couple.
So I settled on stars. Because he IS the star.
Our star anyway.
ANd I used yellow dye.
Dan said why are you making orange stars?
That's GOLD, unimaginative blind person.
ANd then I stuck big toothpicks in them, I tried popsicle sticks but they were too big- they disemboweled the star- little star innards all over the plate. The toothpicks worked better. Now they look like little magic wands.

Or if you're an unimaginative blind person, they look like toothpicks with crooked orange star cookies stuck on them.
BUt Ammo will appreciate them because he can eat them.

He called last night. He is terrified.
Both his high school directors are going to be there to see him (and the other six kids from school who are attending the camp)
I am far more nervous than I ever was for one of my own performances. Even when I did Flaming Agnes in I DO, I DO and had to dance on a bar with a feather boa.
