I've been having trouble with existence as it is, I think. Perhaps not.

The thousand autums of jacob de Zoete is about Decima, the Island on which the Dutch had a tradingpost with the Japanese. The book is historical rather correct and is also about passion, courage, religion, greed and foolishness. But most of all human. You'll like it.
I loved the Jacob de Zoet book! I'm glad to hear that it was at least somewhat historically correct since history isn't my strongest subject. I actually just recommended that book to someone yesterday...

Black coffee in my cup. Getting ready to take mom to a dr.'s appt. Sun is shining here this morning!

(And I've just covered 4 threads in one: Reading Recommendations; What's In Your Cup?; What Are You Doing Right Now?; and What Meteorological Events? )

Soon I'll have to go to my pusher downtown for the Oolong and will report to her your assessment. Maybe she will give me some worthy Keemun.

Thank you.
If it is good it is a pure pleasure

I hope your cold gets better soon. They are no fun. Given that my Hubby has one now I can see one in my future. (sigh)

Teavana and TG both have a really good Keemun. I was surprised that the Teavana version was so good.

Right now I am drinking Rooibos Jungle Fire and loving life.

I've just loaded it into my reader. When I finish my current novel I'll get started on that. Thanks for the tip!Stitchawl
thanks for the title; I'll look into it; always like a new point of view about these matters, although I'm an uncurable displaced optimist.

I think I posted once about a cough syrup I got from a Chinese man in a dark back alley in Kathmandu, Nepal. I had a severe bronchitis and after one dose of that syrup I nearly jumped of the ' roof of the world' and nearly had to go in rehab.

Don't give that nurse too much of the evil eye.

Yes, it will be an intimate party, not a political ( can anyone ever imagine me founding a political one; I can be very undiplomatic and outspoken at times ).

In my cup: nothing

I don't want to know how much your friends can drink if 150 bottles of wine is for an intimate party.

Sounds like fun!
