Pressing Pause 
Ahh, Adele! She is such a powerhouse. I’m trying to place her accent. Is it Yorkshire? Thanks for the wonderful assignments..I’ll get through two or three for sure.
Sorry,I have to confess that I did none of the assigned reading (does it count that I am currently reading Charles Mann’s 1493 during my Thanksgiving break?), but I greatly enjoyed the viewing portion of the assignment. Love Adele.
Wishing you and yours a wonderful Thanksgiving!
I understand. :) Yes, your reading choice more than compensates. Likewise, happy Thanksgiving.
