Not only are the madeleines from Costco delicious and habit-forming, they work! While eating one today, I remembered a professor I had at UT because he was known for writing about Proust. But I admit I had to google the professor's name. www.austinchronicle.com/arts/in-sear...

I'd like to live alone -but not completely- and suggested to my husband we live in separate sides of a duplex. (He doesn't like that idea.) An all women's community sounds good too (just not in TX)!

Happy BLACK History Month. I read Black books every month but I got two stacks for y'all.
First stack is books by Black authors I loved and the second are the ones I’m getting to.
