Still? Not good, pooh. Get better!

I'll have a wee dram of Lagavulin tonight in your honor, and in the hope that you'll soon be able to join with me.

Sigh ... Lagavulin is still the only Scotch I can (barely) taste ...

Strong black coffee!

*sipping* It tastes okay!

First tea of the day.

CRussel · 10-03-2018, 02:52 PM

No tea today, just water -- faux San Pellegrino.

Now that's a bad day, in my book!

A while back I was reminiscing about my days at college, back in the 70s. I remembered drinking, and enjoying, Lambrusco -- a somewhat sweet, somewhat fizzy, red wine. I had a bit of trouble tracking some down -- this ain't the 70s no more! -- but found a store that carried some. It's not a fine wine by any stretch of the imagination, but I enjoyed it (finished the bottle off tonight).

I won't need to do it again anytime soon, but it was fun!

I agree, a bad day with no tea. OTOH, I'd shudder to think what some of the wine I first drank in my youth would taste like to me now. Truly an awful thought!

I'm off my usual schedule this week and next. Started the day with a tall foam cup of road coffee* but I'm home now and the water is heating for tea!

* I stopped at a local convenience store -- their "light roast" isn't too bad. Unfortunately, the coffee urn emptied with my cup about one quarter full. So, I tried the "medium roast" and got to the halfway mark before it sputtered out. Then the dark roast which got me -- all together, now! -- to about the three-quarters mark. There was just enough "house blend" to reach the top. Fortunately, I was mostly interested in the caffeine.

Well, I haven't tried looking for any Boone's Farm!
