Great story, Jill. Good to hear Alfred's voice again. Ah, yes, Mohammed Ali aka Cassius Clay. My dad was a huge fan of boxing. I saw him box on TV a few times. That saying of his stuck with me, too: Float like a butterfly. . .

Are Soho Glob cookies real, or did you make them up?

Totally real and very delicious. I make them all the time. You can google and find recipe which was created by a bakery in Soho NY.

I was just thinking I should do that. Don't know why it didn't occur to me before.. I'll be interested to see if they are anything like my aunt's No-Bake Cookies, which are quite good if you are a chocolate aficianado like me.
