The Pope has died and a new one must be appointed. Father Lawrence has been given the task to organize the conclave and call in the cardinals to make the decision. Ralph Fienes is at his best in this story about the secret process in the Catholic Church of gaining support for the next leader of the church. He is busy corralling, herding, organizing, and sourcing out the scandals that continue to erupt about the various men who wish to be elected.

The ending is a total surprise, catching most of the audience unawares, but the winner of the vote for Pope chooses the name Innocent, so take that as your clue. It was a good movie. I enjoyed it.

We made a trip to Disneyland, Anaheim, a few weeks ago. It was so much fun, and totally exhausting, right? Here are some pictures from Star Wars, Galaxy’s Edge.

Have you ever been there? It is an amazing place, so much imagination and art work combined.

Come out and say hello. I look forward to meeting you.

I’ll be there with my books. Hope to see you there.

My little tiny crabapple tree went crazy with fruit this year. Most years I have enough to make some crabapple jelly, some spicy jelly, some applesauce. But this year I am inundated with fruit.

I’ve made all the crabapple jelly I can store in the crowded shelves of my pantry. Frozen as much applesauce as will fit in my freezer, but now it is full. I have stored boxes of crabapples in the workshop where the temperature stays moderately low but doesn’t freeze. I haven’t been doing much writing, because most of my time has been taken in the kitchen.

Now what? I don’t have a clue.
