Good Morning

Xmas Foodie

Well folks, I don’t know how your two days of Xmas went but mine was quiet and yet enjoyable. I was going to have a curry on the day itself but yesterday Annie who lives above me came to the rescue and cooked a delicious Xmas Day roast with all the trimmings. Chicken, beef, and lamb were all part of it along with Brussel sprouts, broccoli, carrots, roasted potatoes, and Yorkshire pudding. I was stuffed by the end of it. All washed down with an Italian merlot vino.







I had a couple of CDs from my b and sister-in-law plus a malt whisky from Phil.

Today I made myself a delicious mushroom carbonara pasta dish washed down with a top-quality Cabernet Sauvignon wine.





Plus cider before and after the main meal, LOL!!

Beautiful Music #2

A couple from Puccini's La Boheme.

Puccini - La Boheme: Si. Mi chiamano Mimi

La Bohème: Si, mi chiamano (extract with voiceover)
Artist
Angela Gheorghiu/Orchestra Sinfonica di Milano Giuseppe Verdi/Anton Coppola

Ileana Cotrubas & Neil Shicoff - Sono andati? (La Bohème)

Mimi's death still cuts me up every time I hear it.

ENJOY

Just Wondering

Apart from myself, do you know anyone who smokes a pipe?

What’s your cure for hiccups?

What invention doesn’t get a lot of love, but has greatly improved the world?
