What a beautiful gift you gave your Mother for her 80th Birthday!
May she celebrate many more happy and healthy ones.

I hope that you will have good news from your Father, after the next
Cat scan. It is good news that his spirits are up.

Marcel came unexpectedly for lunch. I had to "invent" a meal for him,
as I had nothing much in the refrigerator, except for some sad left
overs and made him a sandwich with Bakery Whole Wheat toast, with home
made chicken salad, lettuce and crispy bacon. He loved it and ate
every last bite. )

I saw something that was strange to me. On 2nd Avenue and 77th Street,
in an Irish restaurant, there was a Sunday Brunch written out on a
small blackboard on the sidewalk. $10.95 for two drinks such as
Bloody Marys or Beer or Screw Drivers and several others, plus coffee
or tea and a choice of eggs or hamburgers and many other choices. One
of them was "Baked Beans On Toast". Isn't that a strange sandwich or
brunch dish?

Love, Margaret
