Her Serene Highness (the former Baroness) Seitzinger returned from her two week journey to the heartland. Even Mrs. Styvesant-Fish lamented the loss of someone we never stopped picking upon.

Although I do not look upon myself as an opportunist, I could not notice the fact that her family commanded endless acres of seemingly healthy corn. I hosted a small well-come back lunch for her, but (with the promise of endless corn), I am hosting a formal, sit-down dinner for Her Serene Highness. As we all know, corn is the new gold.
