We were supposed to have a houseguest from Bloomington (whom I’ve known for thirty years now) today, but there was a message from her on the answering machine saying she was going to be a day late — yet, we got email from her after she left the message and she didn’t say anything about being a day late, so I do not know if she’s coming today or tomorrow.

This is sort of a problem, since I’d planned a menu and all. I guess I’ll call our friends in Ohio she stayed with last night (unless she’s a day late, in which case she’ll be staying with them tonight) and see what’s going on.

And I found cider at Giant, but only by mistake after giving up and tossing apple juice in my cart. It’s not with the juice. It’s at the front of the store as you go in, under the spinach. (They sell “apple cider” in the juice aisle, but it’s apple juice, not cider. This is cider. Unfiltered.)
