It all looks lovely. It's great to have some scones with teatime as well.

Oh man, I just made my favorite meatloaf recipe and tried a new garlic potato recipe to go with it. I’m finishing the meal right now with a little orange and ginger infused dark roast coffee, enhanced with a shot of Grand Mariner, sugar, and topped with whip cream. I would have shared, but my kids devoured their dinner. Barely left overs for their school lunch tomorrow.

I wrote a wee micro-fiction story while the kids were swimming today. Hopefully, it will be posted soon.

Also, started watching Season Four of Narcos: Mexico. I just love this show. Mostly Spanish subtitles, but Netflix did a wonderful job with it. The first two seasons featured an amazing actor who played Pablo Escobar. He was a horrible person, but the actor humanized the man. Love it when performers can do that.

I hope everyone had a great weekend!

That sounds as bad as Pumpkin Spiced Latte.

Yes. Not fond of it. Chocolate doesn't belong in tea of any kind.

The ginger tea next to it intrigues me (though I prefer lemon-ginger to straight ginger).

Halloween looms and my annual story is here. Is it a trick? Or a treat? Let me know.

Awesome... and I agree, no chocolate in tea unless it's because your chockie bikkie flopped in.... an occupational hazard when tasting a new brand. All chockie bikkies should come with a recommended dunk time on the packet. Could call it a 'Mississippi Rating'... one Mississippi, two Mississippi and such

Do you have a fav chocolate biscuit? Mine would be McVities Digestive... the dark chockie in pref to the milk. They even have them in France! Neat packaging I can supply a 'Mississippi Rating' for both.



Unlike the French to make a culinary faux pas. They are from Scotland, not England!

Nope, but I've had chocolate mint stout. Surprisingly nice!

Not usually a beer drinker (though I have had some that I like, including Stella Artois) and really not fond of stouts, but I'll ask my beer gourmet son, who is fond of stouts, if he has heard of this.

Choco Liebniz (Dark) - The best and most fun chocolate biscuit ever. I believe there is a law which requires that the chocolate be nibbled from around the edges before biting the biscuit.

There isn't? Well there damn well should be!

Morning all! Freezing cold day today with strong winds blasting our islands. A nice, hot cup of tea would go down very nicely! ☕

This was a late arising day. I'm still waiting for coffee to brew.

The weather is actually lovely for this time of year.

Glad it's lovely somewhere. 10-15cm of blowing snow with a squall warning is our forecast.

How waa your day, Larry



I had a good day. It was nice and warm today. I like that.

I've been working on a story. It should be done pretty soon. But this is the holiday season. It might not get approved for a few days.

How are you, Meg? Are you doing well? You ought to be still sleeping.

Hugs, my dear friend.

Morning Larry, morning Meg! Happy Thanksgiving, all!

Glad the weather was good for you yesterday, Larry and looking forward to your story!

It was a foul day here yesterday, so I'm looking forward to a walk by the sea today. It's cold but clear and bright. Lovely! I'll take a coffee to warm me up beforehand. ☕

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends! Enjoy the day and don't knock yourself dead on Black Friday.

The squalls missed us and we just got a dusting. Temps are below normal for this time of year, though, so we're still freezing our little butts off. Sunny, though.

I now have a tooth running on two roots (should have three). One root has been giving me grief. It was root-canaled years ago but split somewhere along the line so my dentist finally removed it. In pieces. He went overboard with the freezing, too.

We'll be giving thanks at my wife's brother's home today. I'm having a last cuppa java now before setting off. It's only about forty minutes down the highway.

Hoping all are lucky enough to have family and friends they may share some joy with today.

Just an ordinary day here. We Canucks get ahead of the game and have our Thanksgiving in October.
