Dearest Pearl,

You didn't say what was keeping you so busy lately but I'm sure the diner was humming with Christmas shoppers and weary Hindus seeking enlightenment.  Say, were you able to use the cow salt and pepper shakers Fanny picked out for you?  She found them in a dusty little shop on Drury Lane - very close to Picadilly Circus and the restaurant that was the scene of the cheese debacle so long ago when we were young. 

I Remain As Always,
Your Devoted Miss Blue
