Links on Sunday and photos too
From Lucullian Delights, 5 month ago Similar articles
I have a new Advent banner for Lucullian, I can't understand why I haven't changed it before though there are family members who cries for the old one but why always stick with the old, why not just move onwards' But I don't want to stop my links on Sunday, I have some quite nice ones to share with you this week: This is my favourite, Dear Photograph, I just love the idea and how people

Bessie continues her journey. The initial excitement has worn off, and this is a week of mixed emotions. I have left unedited some politically incorrect terminology. Feb. 25th (Sunday) Had a run of 270 miles ? temperature 73 degrees. Saw the drill of all the sailors on deck, & afterwards retired to the Saloon where Divine Service was read by the Captain, followed by a discourse by a

Happy birthday to the kangaroo! Today is the actual day but his birthday feels longer than an Indian wedding twice over. He has had celebrations in New York, Wiesbaden, Singapore (twice: once with friends and once with my folks as shown in the photos above), Sydney (will post this soon), tonight with Mrs Kangaroo who flew in from Sydney this morning, and the grand finale this Saturday with our Tokyo friends. I think he actually likes being 40…since he is celebrating it so many...

Here are some unrelated photos, all taken with my Iphone as I was here and there in Paris. A view of the Arc de Triumph from the side. It was just nice to get another angle as I am so often seeing it from the front. It’s been the stage for a lot of action in the last couple of weeks, first with Veterans Day here in France and the laying of the wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier and then, yesterday, a visit from the newly elected President, Hollande. It poured and his suit was...

May In Seattle
From Here There and Everywhere, Yesterday, Similar articles
From the bone chilliing 47 degrees mid-day on my arrival, the temperatures in Seattle flew up up and up. By Sunday, the American Mother’s Day, the temperatures were up 30 something degrees, in the mid to high 70′s, and Monday and Tuesday were the same. Good thing we got most of the heavy sorting and tossing andhauling done during the beautiful, but cooler weather before the weekend. We had a lovely Mother’s Day, Mom got to sit out in the sun, under a huge umbrella, got to...

Le Point Rouge, in Marseilles. Nothing to do with today's story, these are photos I took in '92, when I moved to Marseilles to live with this young accountant. Turns out Jean-Marc wasn't cut out for office work (an outdoors type, he is). Today, a story about our son, Max. Just what is he cut out for' P.S. Max turns 17 on May 17th. The next post will go out on Friday. See you then! Meet Chief Grape in London. He will be pouring his wines at the Real Artisan Wines May...

My Gorgeous Mother's Day Present(c) Amanda van MulligenFor those of you who are mothers living in the Netherlands today was hopefully a day of pampering and cuddles from your little ones, and your partner of course. It's a day to put mum in the spotlight, because let's face it most days aren't..... Mum is usually too busy running around taking care of everyone else to stop and stand in the spotlight!Mother's Day in the Netherlands is always the second Sunday of May and has been since 1925 (if...

Quick review on a new place at Publika. Plus points- love the chocolate cappuccino- tiramisu yummy- pasta (seafood pasta and the other one with mushroom cream) both were yummy and tasty and unexpected for a small restaurant like theirs - hubby loved the cod fish order Bad points- food portion were small!!! All 5 adults with me at that time (last Sunday lunch time) had the same conclusion... Food was small, we needed to order dessert to fill the "gap"- hubby said his dish was small, so small...
Brrrrr! That Can't be Right!

When I travel, I check with Weather Underground so I will know what to pack. While I barely had time to unpack and do mammoth piles of laundry to repack for the next trip, I did have time to check the weather. Lovely weather, highs in the high 50′s and 60′s, going up to 80 on Mother’s Day this coming Sunday. So when we landed, and the pilot said “Welcome to Seattle, it is 47° out, my only possible response was “That can’t be right.” But as soon as...
Don Jose's, A Bright Spot in Decatur, TX
From Here There and Everywhere, 1 weeks ago, Similar articles
The morning drive is interesting, as we leave Interstate 40 and cut across Texas headed toward Dallas-Fort Worth. The road is fast, and cuts through cattle ranches, farms, ranches and some deserted towns. By noon, we are more than ready for a stop, and decide to try to find something in Decatur. We don’t want same-old, we want local, and AdventureMan spots Don Jose’s. Lunch was good, and you are just going to have to take my word for it because I forgot to take any photos. Don...
