One of Johnny Mercer's lesser-known songs was "Candy."



Thus, Johnny Mercer is Brokieish.

When Jack died :( it was the Death of a Combine Salesman.  Thus, Arthur Miller is Brokieish.

Also, he was married to Marilyn Monroe, and Michelle may be about to play her in a biopic.

Cool.

Not what I was thinking, but it works.

Here's what I had:

In 1943, Carson McCullers wrote 'The Ballad of the Sad Cafe'.


A hunchbacked dwarf named Cousin Lymon (Michael Dunn) comes along to claim kinship with Miss Amelia and monkey-walk his way into her barricaded heart. Cousin Lymon is sly, querulous and malevolent, but in her shy-smiling gladness Miss Amelia turns her store into a café where her half-pet half-child holds court. One night Marvin Macy shows up, and it is the dwarf's turn to love unrequitedly. Cousin Lymon is infatuated with the ex-jailbird who has seen the world, but Marvin cruelly cuffs him and calls him "Brokeback."

All right, I get it, mine was not the most creative response!

Annie Proulx wrote the book Cider: Making, Using & Enjoying Sweet & Hard Cider, and included a recipe for New England butter rum cider that includes, among other things, cinnamon.  

New England Butter Rum Cider

For a quiet evening à deux when the winter wind howls outside and snow heaps up on the window sill, with a cheery fire snapping in the fireplace, there are few more comforting and soul-satisfying drinks than this.

3-4 teaspoons raw or brown sugar, or honey
2 wide strips lemon, orange or lime peel
4 ounces dark or medium-dark rum, warmed
2 teaspoons butter
4 whole cloves
pinch allspice
1 pint strong, dry cider
1 cinnamon stick, halved

Into each eight-ounce cup or mug put 1 1/2-2 teaspoons sugar, a strip of orange peel, and an ounce of rum.  Be sure the peel is wet with alcohol, then fire it with a match to release the citric oils.  After the flame dies out, recharge each cup with a second ounce of rum, a teaspoon of butter, the cloves and allspice.  Heat the cider until piping hot, pour into the mugs, and stir with the cinnamon sticks.


Thus, cinnamon is Brokieish!
