Similarly, you can also run into Martha Stewart at the NE Harbor farmer's market in the summer. (My daughter, as a toddler, *literally* ran into her...we apologized and quickly stepped away before her security stepped forward....)

You can often meet Graham Kerr at the Mount Vernon, Washington, Farmer's Market. He lives in the area, and is a regular visitor there. Nice guy.

I didn’t know he was still around! I grew up watching The Galloping Gourmet with my mom, then bought all the newer books he did with his series return a few years (a couple decades?) ago. Was saddened to hear when his wife passed away. Anyway, thanks for the nice update!

I did not know that! I might stroll down there at some point to see if I can spot him!

I never knew that! (Nor would I ever care -- not being a Richie Rich or Casper fan!)

Manwich
40 years ago when it came out my dad brought some camping along with other food. We camp and fish and never caught enough fish to eat So always had to have a backup plan. We were hungry and ready for some manwich, opened that can and its only sauce
Who would have thought you had to bring your own hamburg. Thought it was like spaghetti’os or ravioli
We sopped up that sauce with the bread and called it a night. Great memories !

Speaking of eclairs, I have unfortunately found through Nextdoor a French bakery in downtown LA which delivers for free on orders over $30. $50 later I had eclairs, exquisite tarts, almond croissants, pain au chocolat and ham & cheese baguette sandwiches dropped on my doorstep by a French guy in a baker's outfit!

My mouth is watering! Unfortunately, where I live, LA means Lower Alabama.

Noooo, I do not want to know which bakery you’re referring to....really, I don’t want to know.


Well.


Maybe.

Actually no -- we are addicted to Cafe Elysse's pastries, and also found two doughnut shops. We'll try both of your suggestions at the end of October. There is also a German market/restaurant further south and inland we want to try which I believe has a pastry counter. Without googling, my memory says it has a very non-German name, maybe Tip Top Market? We noticed two Italian grocery stores/sandwich shops as we were wandering around last year -- have to check to see if they have pastries. Lucky for me the See's has to be driven to!
