Pimpernels and ranunculus...

Just so I'm not following my once-a-week track record, here's a wee message from hump day. Pimpernel is plugging away. The cold/flu that has ravaged the cast seems to be mostly on its way out. It's amazing to see the effect of close backstage quarters and onstage contact when it comes to passing the germs. There are still a few that are battling, but hopefully the worst is in the rear view mirror.


It has been really pretty here in Escondido. Sunshine and moderate temperatures. I've particularly enjoyed the weekly routine of going to the farmer's market each Tuesday between shows with compadre Victor and whoever else wants to tag along. We enjoy a wealth of produce and all sorts of artisan foods. And this week I went especially nuts over the fresh flowers. I've discovered that I really like ranunculus! So I bought a few inexpensive bunches along with some sweet smelling freesia, and now my apartment looks like a florist. Really nice!

Anyway... that's all for now. I'm gonna hit the drawing board tonight and hopefully knock out a few projects as I go. Take care, all! Peace and love.
