And today's theme?
Build a playlist of your favorite Johnny Mathis songs.
Easy!
And there's a duet...
And I simply had to include a Christmas song...
It’s all coming back to me now
So you should know that I am not a “shopper”. I live in shopping mall heaven — I’m ten minutes from the Broadway Mall, 15 from Roosevelt Field and 25 from Whitman Shoppes — but I seldom go to the mall. I prefer to shop on line. And when I do venture into a store, I usually know what I want and buy it as quickly as possible. I’m not one to browse through stores just to see what’s for sale. There’s a local chain, Baked By Melissa , that specializes in mini cupcakes. They’re primarily in Manhattan. A few years ago Becca introduced me to their product - delicate little cakes, exquisitely decorated, very tasty. I walk past their shop on 7th Avenue whenever we go to the theater.

There's nothing like the silky smooth vocals of yesteryear. Johnny Mathis was still going strong by the time I was in my late teens. I had forgotten about "Too Much Too Little". Although he transcended through the years adjusting his music style, there's something undeniably magical about his earlier songs but then the age of doo-wop, dreamy ditties of the 50s and 60s are timeless treasures. Thanks for stepping onto the dance floor with the 4M gang, my friend. Stay safe and be well! ;)
