At Home with Amy Sedaris

I love this Martha Stewart cooking show spoof! I never watched it, and it is hilarious. I've been laughing out loud at my dining room table. I knew I loved the writing of Amy's brother David Sedaris, but now I've flipped for this, too.  

And then--Amy says she was inspired by "At Home with Peggy Mann," which she watched in girlhood. So I watched one of those episodes from August 1979 and again, loved it.  The time capsule of it all. A man in a blue denim, wide-lapel suit (a guest on the show); beautiful young Jane Curtin on a washing machine commercial; a lengthy message from the Broiler Council promoting chicken as a tasty, high-protein food, especially when your family has worked up an appetite outdoors.

I live for this retro stuff.

Almost midnight.

Good night.

TCOY

1. Short walk w Sugar.
2. Long talk w Sis.
3. Kim, I ordered those 3 French memoirs/books by Elizabeth Bard on Amazon. Wanted hard covers, bought 2 used but "like new" condition, and one brand-new. About $38 total with shipping. I previewed and saw some healthful family recipes to try. Thank you!
4. Wholesome foods had: roast turkey, Ezekiel bread, tomato, avocado, scrambled egg with kale and salsa.
5. Asked Dan to unsnag my bike lock, which had coiled around tire spokes...I plan to pedal somewhere tomorrow.
6. Zoom school meeting for parents/caregivers tonite--info received. It was clear to me that we are all doing our best--teachers, parents, kids, administration. We all seemed a tiny bit worse for the wear (many keep their cameras off) but the chat showed hope and trust. It was good to see fellow parents there. Punch back from Mimi's tomorrow. I'm praying for peace, and the wisdom and presence of mind to take things one hour, one day at a time. School starts Thursday morning at 7:50 am.
