Sablés au gorgonzola et noix

The question?

And a little sunshine in bloom

And a glass (or two)

Let's warm up a little

What can we do but sleep against the cold?

Scented wax, alive but dying. A cut lily.

Paté de lièvre - pour mieux courir...

By popular demand, the recipe is there.

The expresso queen

Let me whisper there - On this bench soaked in sunshine -Days pass, love does not

Meet me in the shade - On a bed of frozen words - Promises gone cold

And the frozen man - Left off to try and get warm - But for his cold feet

Old fountains shiver - Chilled to the stones in the snow. - Children's laugh bubble.

Attack of the postal pirates

The original portrait was probably taken by Jacky Joannes. Perhaps.
Our weather hindcast will follow shortly...

Comfort food

Left Out

This is dedicated to people who feel brutalized by this day. You are not unloved.



"Left Out" was first published on Pen Prick Microfiction.

Lap - top - cat

And we turn to drink

But then the weather turns to soggy

The mimosa dares not bloom

Very cold (well, for Rome, anyway)

The weather bulletin...

Cold and sunny

Tah Chin (Persian Rice Timbale)

And yet more strays...

And deserted pathways

There are also abandonned toys

Not that wine is the only important thing there

We have plenty of strays too

Amarone tasting

Meanwhile...

Wine tasting course...
