Cookies Suo Gan

I am making oatmeal cookies and taking a nip of molasses while listening to the song "Suo Gan", it being a Welsh Gaelic song and if I don't cry at that, I'll be weeping when James Gallway takes up the fiddle and Liam Neeson narrates the leaving of Ireland.

Suo Gan reminds me of Empire of the Sun, a fine film and one of the strongest statements against war - such statements being the style of the Past Times. Empire of the Sun, Spielberg direction with Christian Bale and John Malkovich in 1987.

Suo Gan brings tears to  our eyes as we think of what could have been, and what now lay in front of us!
