When I looked at your avatar, I giggled. I was in the basement looking at my vinyl and saw THAT album. I popped it on the turn table and cleaned to Herb Alpert! What a co-inky-dink! :D

I did that after I had an Alpert question in my LS game a few months ago.

The big picture in the back is Michelangelo's Delphic Sibyl. Fanny always sits in front of it in the same pose as the sibyl, so I just propped up the album and figured that I'd see her sitting in the Whipped Cream pose at some point. I tried to put a puff of mousse on her head so she'd look like the lady on the cover, but she was having none of it. Ha!

I've been needing to do a thorough kitchen cleaning for some time, I should crank up the Brass. They're great for that kind of stuff, hard to stay still and the music doesn't take a lot of thought.

I never noticed before but, looking at the pictures one after the other, it struck me that the Delphic Sibyl is behind her in both of them!

Different houses, props, taken 12 years apart, but a constant remains. The symmetry pleases me.
