Cornwall ON – Yes, I actually bought that Signet paperback book as a young un. We had this country place in Cumberland Head NY. Rocky Point community, and while picking up some groceries on a rainy Sunday I grabbed this off the spin rack. Loved that A&P!Continue Reading
Cornwall ON – I’ve been watching Woody Allen films for an awfully long time. Midnight in Paris is his highest grossing film ever. It’s light. It’s charming. Is it filling and satisfying? Yes…and no…My favorite Allen film is The Purple Rose of Cairo and there’sContinue Reading
