I am imagining a retired life where I live in Florida during the winter and Elmira NY during the summer. That might be a pretty good retirement.79 here, and quite lovely.

What will you do with the mango -- eat it plain, or put it in salad?

Typically my daughter and I just eat it - but I love making it Into a salsa over fish. I have to put it far back on the counter because my dog Geno LOVES mango and he will sneak up there and steal it and run around the house with it.

Interesting bit of trivia:

It's funny - Janet was Willis's girlfriend on Diff'rent Strokes but I can't remember if she also guest starred on Facts of Life. I guess child stars from that era probably all knew each other in some capacity from industry events or network parties.
ETA: imdb says she was not on Facts of Life but she was an uncredited zombie dancer in her brother's Thriller video.
‘Facts of Life’ star Mindy Cohn reveals she sang on Michael Jackson’s ‘P.Y.T.’
Cohn divulged the tidbit on Marjorie Gubelmann’s Twitch dance party Saturday.

I have a bad luck house that I have already sold three times! Price is $1,168,990.
Somebody just called, wants to submit an offer of $950K. I told her no. When she said that’s what she qualifies for financing, I trotted out my favourite line. “Sorry, that price isn’t in the ballpark. It’s not even in the same city as the ballpark.”
No worries. She’s going to find a realtor and submit her offer that way. Ummm yeah, the realtor still has to go through me, and now you just lost the $10K rebate in lieu of realtor referral.

So I'm really enjoying seeing the cardboard cutouts of fans in the stands during baseball games on TV. Very amusing to say the least.
One suggestion though. Have some sort of rotating device installed for each "fan", and have them submit a normal, happy face photo AND an angry, intimidating face photo for each cutout. That way, when the opposing team's pitcher is on the mound, stadium staff can push a button which automatically switches the happy crowd into an angry mob.

A photographer for the NY Post passed away of Covid-19. Young guy - totally healthy otherwise. So sad. The Mets honored him by placing a cardboard cutout of him with his camera where he would normally sit for games. Such an awesome tribute.

Sad, but great way to honor him.
Last night I was watching the A's - Giants game. Behind home plate, there was the clump of crowd cutouts, but several feet off to the side, there was a cutout of one lone man in a suit. I was wondering why he was off to the side highlighted. Hopefully just a tribute to a high-up within the organization, and not a death.

Everyone is hoping our own “Home Plate Lady” makes an appearance as a cutout.

Fans of the Toronto Blue Jays have come to recognize a familiar face behind home plate at the Rogers Centre. She's known as "Home Plate Lady."

Who got a care package from the US today?
32 tubes of toothpaste, among other necessities.
The more one wears a mask, the more one needs to brush their teeth. Speaking from experience.
Thank you, Bestie.
Even if the rumours of the border remaining closed for months to come prove true, I should be okay.

You have an awesome bestie!!! I am hoping my bestie sends me a care package soon. She had one ready to go when the post offices all closed down because of covid. At least, I think that's what she said happened. Anyway, she hasn't sent it yet and I've been trying to order Stovetop Stuffing for months and it's been out of stock. I can get mac n' cheese still, but the stuffing and brown sugar cinnamon poptarts have been unavailable at every import seller I know of.

None of my business, of course . . . but is toothpaste in short supply north of the border these days? (Are you selling your 32 tubes of it out of your trunk, for a carpet bagger's marked up price?
)

Very nice.
Sounds a lot better and more useful than the care package I was planning on sending you guys from work.

In her defense, she only asked for 20. With the exchange rate I rounded up to 32. That’s how it works, right?None of my business, of course . . . but is toothpaste in short supply north of the border these days?
