      Actually, you can see part of a discarded moonshine liquor bottle on the left.

        Cleverly disguised as a water bottle, I see.

      Thank you! I knew the name Possum Dearie sounded so familiar and just couldn’t place it. If you want to read a good book that also references Blossom Dearie, I highly recommend 2 a.m. at The Cat’s Pajamas by Marie-Helene Bertino. This is one book that has survived the various purges when I clean out my bookcases and would probably be the book I’d have to have if stranded on a deserted island.

        I always appreciate a book recommendation! I’m off to check it out.

    Mike, another strong contender for the 2018 calendar. I might hurt myself laughing.
