FUZZIES
To our international visitors
who came a far piece (Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany,
Hungary, India, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Poland, Singapore,
Switzerland, Thailand, United Kingdom); to Sheila for her nice Yelp
blog; to Bill for a wonderful shoe shine on Moi's favorite brown T-straps
(Bill's at Mr. Barber on Oak, 6th Floor); to Michael for his nice lunch;
to Cathie on her speedy recovery; to Anna for her smoothie recommendation;
to Lindsay, Kim, Kaisa, Michelle for keeping Moi on-track; to Jeff for his
nice gift, a fine salad spinner; to Tony for his good help; to Eric for
his handyman services; to Janelle and Lara for their fine shoot; to Ruth
for her nice write up in the New York Times, Style Section.
GRIPE, GRUMBLE, GROUSE
Here's the
story: Moi ordered a $12.49 roaster pan from target.com. It
arrived in good condition, but was too big for my oven. I shipped it
back, as per their instructions, and received a $4.12 credit for the
purchase. That's right, $4.12! Target's policy for returned items that are not defective
or damaged is for the customer to pay shipping out and back. In my
case, almost $18. I still need a new roaster and now have $4.12 to
pay for a 2nd one. Something's wrong with shopping at target.com.
Similar websites are eating most of the shipping charges, asking as little
as $2.95 for shipping. Believe I'll shop for my new roaster pan at
overstock.com when I get a chance.

The Secret Man: The Story of
Watergate's Deep Throat by Bob Woodward The Secret Man, Bob Woodward's
Deep Throat source during Watergate, is now known to be ex-FBI official W.
Mark Felt. Woodward doesn't reveal much in the way of new hard facts about
the Watergate investigation, but in The Secret Man, he chronicles the
history of his relationship with Felt. It began with a chance meeting in
the White House when Woodward was a naval officer, but the ambitious
Woodward was constantly adding contacts to his network that would follow
him to his reporting career at the Washington Post. When the Watergate
story broke, Felt was one of the first people Woodward called. Woodward
was desperate for any information and Felt wanted to get the truth out
while protecting his identity. Their initial exchanges of bits and pieces
of the story soon gave way to a trusting partnership that eventually led
to the downfall of a president. Once Woodward began to understand the
whole story, he knew early on that it would lead to Nixon's removal from
office, but to this day, he doesn't know Felt's motivation for feeding him
information. The Secret Man has received mixed reviews with USA Today
saying, "It's fascinating and frustrating, revealing and disingenuous,
self-critical and self-serving."
"Rushed into print after former
FBI second-in-command W. Mark Felt was unmasked as Watergate's enigmatic
arch-informant, this memoir reminds us that the scandal's lasting impact
was less on politics than on journalism. Woodward recounts his cultivation
of the avuncular Felt as mentor and source during his days as a cub
reporter, the cloak-and-dagger parking garage meetings where Felt leaked
conclusions from the FBI's Watergate investigation, Felt's ambivalence
about his actions and the chilling of their post-Watergate relationship.
The narrative drags in later years as the author showily wrestles with the
ethics of revealing his source, even after a senile Felt begins blurting
out the secret and his family pesters Woodward to confirm his identity.
Woodward portrays Felt as a conflicted man with situational principles (he
was convicted of authorizing the FBI's own Watergate-style illegal
break-ins), motivated possibly by his resentment of White House pressure
on the FBI for a cover-up, possibly by pique at being passed over for FBI
chief. Unfortunately, Felt doesn't remember Watergate, so his reasons
remain a mystery; Woodward's disappointment at the drying up of his oracle
is palpable. What's clear is that Deep Throat laid the template for
Woodward's career; his later reporting on cloistered institutions-the
Supreme Court, the CIA, the Fed, various administrations-relied on
highly-place, often unnamed insiders to unveil their secrets. It gave his
reporting its omniscient tone, but, critics complain, drained it of
perspective and made it a captive of his sources and their agendas.
Woodward doesn't probe these issues very deeply, but he does open a window
on the fraught relationships at the heart of journalism. " Publishers

General
Congrats on your 14th
anniversary. A bunch of folk
I'll always remember my first
couture piece, an Armani pantsuit, and it was you, Barbara, who encouraged
me to spend $715, an enormous amount of money for me in 1990, advising it
would be my favorite wardrobe piece for years and years. You were
right! It was and it opened the door for me to shop couture resale. Joan
(Hi Joan,
Thanks for your nice thoughts. Stickler that I am for detail
requires me to tell you that you purchased the Armani pantsuit in 2002,
not 1990, and you paid $745, not $715. Now, you're into Richard Tyler
and Burberry, too. Isn't that fine? Barbara)
Are you loosing weight?
You're looking too thin. A couple of folk

had jaw surgery in March and can't yet eat solid foods. Will bulk up
as my jaw heals, I promise. Barbara)
Why are there no photos of you

website is to sell merchandise, not showcase me. Purposely
innocuous, I am modeling
garments in two photos on the website, reproduced below. One, a butt

I clean my closet at the end of
a season. Why don't you take in end of season stuff? Barbara
(Don't
have enough storage room to retain merchandise 6 months in advance of
season. Sorry. The way I figure it is this: you stored
the stuff all season and didn't wear it, so continue storing it until the
beginning of the season and call me, then. Barbara)

MERCHANDISE RELATED
Hello! Hope you are enjoying
your Sunday. Just purchased what I now believe may be real vintage find.
Needed a formal, evening coat, preferably in white so entered such a
description on e-bay and this lovely Blum’s Vogue Chicago coat appeared.
Never heard of this store until an internet search revealed their status.
The coat arrived yesterday and is quite stunning with detailing one cannot
find in ready to wear at least. Probably duchess satin with a kind of
‘puffy’ effect. Needs to be cleaned and am a petite 0-2 so concerned that
alterations will not disrupt the integrity of the design and of course
some of the unique seams. I was able to purchase with a “best offer” of
$69. Figured of course that was a deal but now wondering of if its
approximate value far supersedes my expectation. If I forward you its
e-bay page, as they were quite diligent with photos, including a close-up
of the couture-quality of the seams, might you possibly suggest a round
figure? Just curious here (not a kitty cat so I should be safe). Thanks
ever so for your time, Krysten
(Hello Krysten, You purchased the Vintage coat at a
wonderful price. Not necessary to forward picture. Cordially, Barbara, The
Daisy Shop)

4th of July
Recipes
Trifle
1 yellow or white cake mix (or buy a bunch of Lady Fingers, already made)
2 packets of custard or pudding mix, instant is fine
2 bags, 1 lb. each, frozen fruit or equivalent sliced fresh fruit,
blueberries and strawberries are especially fine for the 4th of July
1/3 C sugar (more or less to taste) or equivalent sugar substitute
1-1/2 C heavy cream, whipped (or to save time, use whipped topping for
heaven sake!), sherry, optional. Use
additional fresh fruit for garnish.
Serves 10-12
Basic Instructions:
Prepare cake according to directions on package. Let cool completely.
Prepare custard or pudding mix according to package instructions. Let cool
completely.
Mix fruit with sherry. If you don't want to use alcohol, use a little
water or apple juice instead. You want the fruit to be sitting, but not
swimming, in a bit of sweetened juice. Some people like to really soak the
cake in the alcohol, then add the fruit on top. I think this can tend to
make the cake too soggy, so I prefer less.
Whip the cream or not, if you're using the whipped cream from a can.
To assemble:
Trifle is very forgiving, it takes no effort to make it looks great! If
you don't have a trifle bowl, like the one in the photo, use any large
glass bowl. It doesn't technically have to be glass, but it looks prettier
if it is. You can also make individual servings by placing the layers in
large wine goblets.
Cut the cakes into large chunks and cover the bottom of your dish with a
layer of cake. Top with a layer of prepared fruit, then a layer of
custard. Repeat the process until you are out of ingredients or the bowl
is full. Top with whipped cream and garnish with fresh fruit. Chill until
serving time.
To Serve:
Simply scoop out servings with a large spoon.
