Copy editing! LOVE this, but argh...just found what would have been a career-ending error. :-) What's the view out the window in the terminal at the San Diego airport? Water? Is it the bay, or the Pacific? Trees? Palm trees? It can be anything, just whatever is real. xxx

It worked! It's SOUP! It took four houses, but it is delish, with leftover turkey, carrots, mushrooms, onions, peas, celery, parsley and I forget what else. I also love that I will never be able to make it exactly this way again. Every time is different. And now I am singing: #soupertrouper

So the new buzzy book I’m hearing about is “x” meets “Y” and I’ve never heard of either of them. So I thought oh no, I am SO out of it. Then I thought—no, all good, many books, many tastes. And that seems like such a BlueSky reaction. Thank you.
