Edited to add: The recipe for the cheesecake is here, if anybody is interested. It's a no-bake cheesecake, which mightily offended the Snook at first. But it's a deliberate choice; if you baked the cheesecake the top likely wouldn't be as white. It's very quick and simple to make, and everybody loved it. I used frozen berries and they worked just fine.

Donald J. Sobol dies: Author wrote popular "Encylopedia Brown" series - The Washington Post - Oh no! I loved these books, and some of the things I learned from them stick with me today. (Like the fact that a gold brick would weigh 300lbs, and a word with three double letters in a row is 'bookkeeper.') I also loved that Leroy's best friend and bodyguard was Sally, a smart but tough girl who punched out the town bully, Bugs Meany. This grown-up Sally salutes you, Donald J. Sobol.
