Happy New Year - The Countdown Begins

Cokes leftover from my b'day party

Morning coffee. Robin Franklin from the Giant gave me this hat for my whistling tea kettle, Helene gave me the fragile glass cup which holds hot coffee from of all places Israel.

New home for fragrant paper white narcissus.

Delicious egg with everything on it. And some of the 5 bottles of vitamins I take.

Came home from Scott's just now with his book MIRACLE AT MIDWAY by Gordon W Prange and others.

I'll stay down here on red couch so I can be part of the excitement.




Sonny Mehta, famed publisher, dead at 77. Complications of pneumonia.

I've never heard of him.

Let's get a pic of him and his wife. Pics from the Times.



Ajai Singh "Sonny" Mehta (1942 – 30 December 2019)^[1] was an Indian editor and the editor-in-chief of Alfred A. Knopf and chairman of the Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group.
