I am looped on painkillers still, but have chosen today to re-appear with this statement:
Macaroni and cheese does not need pumpkin.
TY
No tweets from me since 9/28. I had a very complicated cancer surgery, was in the hospital for 2 weeks, and am still down for the count.
Off to the hospital at an ungodly hour. I'm having a second cancer surgery today, tweeps. (1st was in 2007) Wish me luck. xo
The entire visit by @Pontifex up at Our Lady Queen of Angels School in Harlem has been very sweet and special. And at times, moving.
Really goosebumpy moment seeing the Pope riding down 5th Avenue, arriving at St. Patrick's Cathedral, with the bells ringing out.

When we buy industrialized foods, we are supporting a system that externalizes many of its true costs #FollowFrancis @Pontifex #FoodVoices
Consider getting outraged about that, a move that will devastate millions of Americans. Like my Mom and perhaps yours.
If my fellow liberals can get off the Planned Parenthood train for a sec, Congress is also trying to defund Medicare and Social Security -->

Remarkable in a chamber so often riven by narrow agendas & uncompromising ideologies to witness a message of such transcendent moral force. – at Chicago, IL
It takes stamina+ to make a speech that long at his age. Given the demands of this trip to the Americas, much admiration for @Pontifex

While #PoeFrancis addresses Congress, homeless Wahingtonians await him at #CatholicCharities.
Watching @Pontifex ask Secret Service to pluck children from the crowd to bless and embrace them. Warm fuzzies.
