A 12-year-old girl was shot by a masked assailant in Washington, D.C., after she and two teen girls beat an elderly disabled man to death last fall.
Reggie Brown of Northwest D.C. was 64-years-old when he was brutally beaten to death by the three girls, age 12 and 13, on Georgia Avenue in October.
Horrific video seen by detectives showed the physically handicapped man being kicked and stomped on by the pre-teens.
Detective Harry Singleton testified on Friday that a man in a blue coat threw the 64-year-old to the ground and then the suspect along with the group of girls chased Brown as he tried to escape.
After the 1am beating, the girls ‘appeared to be in a celebratory mood’ as they walked away from the scene of the crime.
An autopsy determined that he died of blunt force trauma and was a homicide victim.

I came across something I’d never heard of. An Italian Easter Dessert called Pasteira Napoletana. Looks and sounds delightful!

“Walking around the 2024 Cherry Blossoms in Washington D.C.”
I was away for most of the bloom, but managed to get down to the Tidal Basin to see a bit of it. Come walk with me as we take in the views and the annoying music they were playing.

I’ve always wanted to be in DC during cherry blossom time. Wonder if it will ever happen
The Casket Girls
In 1728 a small group of young women arrived in New Orleans each bearing a small wooden chest – called a cassette in French – that was shaped much like a small coffin. They became known as “Les Filles á la Cassette” – the casket girls. This was actually the third wave of such young women, the first arriving in the French colony of Mobile in 1704 and the second arriving in Biloxi in 1719.
Handpicked by the Bishop of Quebec by order of the French king Louis XV, these young women were plucked from the orphanages and convent schools and spent nearly six months traveling from France to New Orleans. The sole purpose for the trip was to provide wives for the men of New Orleans. Those who arrived in New Orleans were placed under the care of the Ursuline nuns until such time as they found husbands.
Here is where the history of these intrepid and perhaps naïve young women who survived the grueling voyage begins to take a series of unusual turns. Because they were described as being “very pale” upon their arrival, it was rumored that the casket girls had a more sinister purpose – and the vampire legends began. But that’s a story better told by one of the many tour guides in the French Quarter.
For an interesting account of the first women to arrive in New Orleans, consider Joan Dejean’s “Mutinous Women: How French Convicts Became Founding Mothers of the Gulf Coast.”

My grandma used to make a version of this desert I never really liked it, I LOVE regular napoleons though, boy do I miss those HUGE Italian dinners family everywhere!! The absolutely horrible thing about Italian family get togethers is people eat ALL DAY long you are washing dishes and heating food for hours on end!! I honestly don’t know where my grandma found the energy but she LOVED it cooking and baking all day made her so happy!! When I look back at what she accomplished with NONE of the luxuries we have in our kitchens now it was really quite AMAZING, the refrigerator and freezers were TINY as were the stoves and NO dishwashers!! EVERYTHING made from scratch, sauces, pastas, cheeses OMG!!!

Dolly, if I am not mistaken don’t you use ATT?
“AT&T investigates after customer data is leaked on the Dark Web”
Oh MY! ROFL
When the bank I use became a different bank I got a notice that my account information was one of how many I can’t remember had been compromised. They are giving me a free year from a company that keeps an eye out for anything happening to my account.
Happy Easter! He is risen!
