Emil and Everett are home today because our steep driveway is an ice rink. It began raining during the night and continues to come down.

It will be necessary to borrow three eggs from upstairs in order to make the double batch of banana-bran muffins I started last night before realizing there was only one egg left. We'd had bacon and eggs for supper when Joan came to pick her little girlie up after spending the day with us. Scott did the cooking while Joan and I drank wine. Life is good.

The house is drafty. A shower should warm me up. Then it's work ... research on a list of 'screen legends' for a radio station.
