Hello everyone,
I've really done too much work to be witty, so really I'll just mention
that it's Memorial Day, and I've made pie. Also, there is, apparently, a
really fantastic collection of Evelyn Waugh letters and papers at some
Boston College library. In case anyone is interested. In a resounding
victory, Mónica is last QOTW's winner, with her quote Dormía con un ojo
abierto; La gallina me iba a comer. (I always slept
with one eye open; the chicken was going to eat me).
And the quotes are...
