Evil sisters, sly cousins and scheming matrons abound in that
world. It is hard to believe women were once so docile on
top and such manipulative creatures underneath. We really
have come a long way, Baby!!

I also am reading The Goldfinch by Donna Tratt. It is a
huge book and very interesting but hard to read in bed because
of the bulk and heft. It is of special interest to the
artists because of the art history sprinkled within. Jane
makes lovely bedtime reading because her books are thin and
always turn out like you want them to and the characters that
you hate get their just deserts.

I need to go to the Base and do some food shopping. They have
the best meats and produce around. It is only a couple of
miles but I dread going because it is hard to get a parking
spot.

I wish a holiday filled with Peace and love for all of you.
