Hard day at work. 300 plus mails, reduced to 180 by filters, only two kept for further action. Very further.

Americano: 2oz Red Vermouth 2oz Campari, pour in a highball glass filled with ice cubes. Add sparkling water (sparingly). Stir. Add a lemon peel. Sit on a low wall in the sunset watching the robot working over the overgrown lawn. Tentative sip. Sip again. Then with gusto. Bliss.

Supper has been easy. Melon and ham for the girls (Magic cook, on temporary leave of absence from the KC and GeoffC farm, defrosted a slice of focaccia for the two starving angels). Palm hearts, green salad and cherry tomatoes and lox for yours truly. Half a bottle of French white (Baye d'Argent, Cote de Provence). A lemoncello?
Welcome, Beppe! Didn't you used to be a member here?

Oh yes dear lawyer Tom. Who would have thought that darling chicken had so much story telling inside.

Of course, I have been cooking for you.

Hello guys. I was away without Internet (capital I) for two weeks, imagine, you will not believe it. I dreamed of you. I can't believe it myself.

I panicked when my computer went down last night. I can't imagine two weeks off line! I'd be a raving lunatic...wait....

Willkommen beppe! Great to see you back safely!
Americano -- yes! Campari is perfect for hot weather sipping!
I hope you're rested - you're going to have lots of adventures cooking in the desert!

I didn't mention this earlier, but by a strange coincidence I lost my Internet connection last night, right in the middle of doing some MobileRead stuff. I checked all my cables, restarted my computer three times, cut both the modem and router off and on, even did a virus scan, and still had no connection. Then it occurred to me to check the phone (our Internet provider is also provides our phone service). No dial tone. Several hours passed, and I finally gave up and went to bed. When I awoke, the phone was back in service, and after restarting the computer to reset the modem and router, the Internet was back.

I assume that, this being a holiday weekend, some drunk driver probably took out one of the providers' cables. It's happened before.

Flash is my neighbor's dog.
What is it with Flash anyway? I still remember having a beautiful life before it?
And it still is beautiful...

The Kindle still had access, but I don't have the patience of recluse to post from it. I've been tempted several times lately to hit that "Buy Now" button at apple.com for an iPad, but among other things I'm waiting for that e-mail/PM from Alex that's certain to arrive any day now.
