Got no deeds to do,
No promises to keep.
I'm dappled and drowsy and ready to sleep.
Let the morning time drop all its petals on me.
Life, I love you,
All is groovy.

Good morning, everyone! Another wonderful day, beginning with a cup of Yorkshire tea and a bowl of tabuli! I wonder what today will bring?

Not only will you save cash, but you get to join in with the rest of us low-brows who prefer taste regardless of class. I spoke of it when talking about prefering $4 lumpfish caviar over fancy Beluga, Astra talked about liking his newer pu-erh over some of the more aged vintages, and KK prefers almond extract over fine wine. Welcome to the club!

The area on top would be PERFECT for cross country skiing!
When we go motorcycle touring in the Alps, we are usually lost for most of the day since the border crossings are no longer there to tell us where we are. Passo San Bernadino, Passo Stelvio, Furka, Sass-Fee.... we travel around and around in big circles, usually unaware of exactly where we are at any given moment, just enjoying the roads over the high passes. Those hair-pin curves are exhilarating at faster speeds! If we get curious about where we are, we stop in a souvenir shop and look at the back of a postcard. Then we see a sign for another pass and head off that way! France, Italy, Austria, Germany, Switzerland... Makes no difference where we go! It's the path, not the destination.

Your wife, she looks like a good wife. Congratulations! Happy anniversary!
Thank you, yes... she's a keeper! I played for 17 years after separating from my second wife, never planning to marry again, quite happy with my free wheeling bachelorhood. Then I met her. In three days I knew... KNEW... that I would marry her! That was 18 years ago.


And on to my next cup of tea... This time... East India Company's 'Royal Breakfast!'
