you doing the beaches or graveyards while you're there?
We did that on a prior trip. Very moving, but not something I want to do again.
Well I see that the taste in cock-tails hasn't improved much!
Almost 8 am around these parts, so thought I'd check in and see how y'all are doing.
Kimmi, I'm glad you're test came back negative, and hope the same for your thyroid biopsy!
It was bright and sunny here yesterday afternoon, but chilly – a high of only about 11C (42F).
And…it's cloudy and cool again today. We're going to an open air farmer's market here this morning, which should be a gustatory adventure!
Sampling French wines while we're here – to restock our cellar, don'tcha know. Purely for research.
Had a very nice Gewürztraminer from Alsace yesterday evening. YUM!
Might put it on our wine list between the Manischewitz and Andrés Baby Duck.
Baby Duck, for those of you who are uneducated in the ways of Canadian (former) wines, was the best-selling wine in Ontario in 1989, before the province was forced to stop taxing Ontario wines preferentially, and hence had to produce real wine, not soda pop from Concord grapes.
Baby Duck was fizzy and purple, and truly horrible stuff. An enterprising reporter from The Toronto Star took a bottle to London and asked one of the great wine merchants there the proper way to serve it.
The critic thought for a moment, then said, " Frozen … on a stick!"

Heading up to Michigan today to take my brother home and then spend the next 8 days seeing family and friends. Now that my comp story is in, I have a lot of stories to catch up on reading. Rumps’ patrons always have some amazing entries and I can’t wait to see what y’all have written! 😘😘
I will still be here on and off. And while I won’t be sightseeing like Bear and Lady Jay, the sights I will see include some of my favorite faces, so I’m a happy girl! ❤️
Lose My Breath is my story for the Elements story competition. I hope you'll check it out!
Hi all. Safe journey, Kat... have fun and enjoy. 😊 Though if you are driving, that seems a looooong way. 😳
I know I'm in early, but not a problem; I'll help myself to a cup of Yorkshire tea and put my gallons, sickles and kutes in the till. 😜😈
