The comedian Rob Becker used to have this bit about coming home from work one day to find his roommate scrubbing the bathroom. "What," Becker would say with concern, "we're moving?"
That comes to mind because I'm suspending the morning news meeting to spend a few minutes picking up crap and, if I get really ambitious, maybe break out a broom. No, we're not moving, but we've lived here for more than four years now so it's about time to tidy up.
Besides, our friends Kaye and Val are arriving tonight, part of the awesome Big Graze road trip they've been chronicling over at The Night Note. These guys, real foodies and high-life appreciators, could have their own show. They know how to travel.
The other night Kaye sent a note suggesting that Val, a tremendous cook, fix us dinner here at our house on Thursday. What, I said in my best Rob Becker imitation, you don't like Raisin Bran?
Stories and photos of their visit to come. First I have a few hundred newspapers to put in the recycling ...

Have fun with the Cohens!
Like I said at the creation of M&M Incremental Updates: It's a riot!
Enjoy your visit with Kaye & Val and say 'hi' for me.
hey Kaye and Val, how would you like to come visit me?
Have fun all of you.
