if love can come and love can go, then why can't love return once more?

Todd Rundgren - Can We Still Be Friends (1978)


Queen Peg and I aren't just friends. We are old friends. Like the finest vintage silks which soften and deepen their sheen with wear, we only enjoy each other more and more. We know all of the jokes.

Queen Peg and I call this "Chicken eating music."  When we are left alone to our own devices, we listen to Todd Rundgren and make chicken in the oven with Joe's Stuff.  We sip our wine, we laugh, we have a perfect evening.

"Memories linger on.
It's like a sweet, sad, old song."

You can find Joe's Stuff from New Orleans here:

Gerry Levert

 Gerry Levert passed away far too soon.  But we have his music to remember him by.



Shel Silverstein

 

Listen to the mustn'ts, child.

Listen to the don'ts.

Listen to the shouldn'ts,  the impossibles, the won'ts.

Listen to the never haves,

then listen close to me...


Anything can happen, child.

Anything can be.

                 

                         - Shel Silverstein

Keto

 So. The King and I were at the market and we ran into a person that we have not seen for awhile.  They said, "You two are looking absolutely fabulous! What are you doing? And we replied in unison, "Keto!"

We are poster children for Keto. The King predicts that we will get the whole Kingdom doing Keto. Queen Redastor does Keto and says, "Keto is a way of life."  Many people have asked us, "But how do I get started?"  We tell them, "You need to figure out what you can eat and what you cannot eat and then you just go from there."  It is essentially very easy.

I would like to introduce you to the person that we call, "Dr. Quack".  While I am sure his profession is quite honorable, the King and I do not recognize him as a real doctor.  However, we cannot argue with his advice and our results. Dr. Quack recommends that you pick one person's advice on Keto and stick with them. He is our "one person".



Counting My Lucky Stars


Queen Rose says all the time to me, "You love sappy. But you don't do sappy." I find this song to be endlessly romantic. And it reminds me of the King.

"We found each other somehow.
Counting my lucky stars tonight."
