Goodbye, Paul

Weird coincidence....so, I knew that Paul Newman was ill, but wasn't really thinking about him on Thursday night when I returned home from my vacation and had to go to the store late at night to get food. I picked up a few organic bananas, then wandered toward the snack aisles. I never buy cookies, but spotted a bag of Newman's Own Organics Alphabet Cookies (PN's daughter's company). They're wheat-free, dairy-free, and chocolate!!! And delicious. I ate the entire bag in about ten minutes. Now I've just read an article about his death yesterday from cancer. So I like to think of my late night cookie binge as my own little tribute to an incredible person who donated $200 million dollars to charitable organizations during his lifetime. Nice work!

So, if you're looking for something to do this weekend, why not have a Newman retrospective. Rent Cool Hand Luke, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, the Hustler, etc -- and make sure you have plenty of Alphabet Cookies, a nice salad topped with his dressing, maybe some chips with his salsa. You can even get your dog some organic dog food. Read more about Paul and his charitable work.
