Morning folks!
Sa Majeste La Rose (Lutens) for me this morning.
Wet, gloomy weather and a bruised/broken(?) toe are combining to
make me feel a bit down - I ran it over with a shopping
trolley!!
Morning Everyone,
Had a craving for something sweet today: Back to Black.
Best to all.
Good morning folks.
Yesterday I was in a leathery mood, wearing Cuir de Russie extrait (must have been all that talk of Tabac Blond). Today is L'Heure Bleue PdT for lunch with an old friend who's visiting from London. It's been on my mind recently, and resistance was ultimately futile (I'm talking about LHB here, not lunch ).
Music to my ears. The trees are slowly turning - bring on the colours !
Does this mean you can still indulge in some dirty drinking ?
Good luck
Delighted to welcome back Whitefluffy yesterday, and also received more good news. Devilcat may be rejoining the fold again before too long - she has been away finishing writing a book !. As someone who has never achieved much of note it's a real pleasure to vicariously enjoy the accomplishments of others here. Authors, doctors, prima ballerinas - you make me proud
SotD is MFK Cologne Pour Le Soir.
In the (apparently) small minority of those who loathe the Absolue. No desire to smell like a stable block
Hope you mend quickly (((kewart)))
Ouch, kewart, I have had a broken toe two winters ago and they DO hurt! (On the average -- and most times unbeknownst to us -- we break our toes two times in our lives, the researchers say). Stabilize it and rest with the pressure taken off of it. Hope you will feel better soon.
Here the leaves are starting to turn too, but we have had a late start, so it may take a while. They said on TV our weather yesterday resembled that of mid-July: 80s (+26C), dry and breezy. We are expecting our second frost by the weekend. Here is a few excerpts from Old Farmer's Almanac:
-- For every fog in October, a snow in the winter;
-- First snowfall early in the month will result in dry winter;
-- If it snows before frost, the winter will be severely cold.
JR, you almost made me spill my coffee all over the screen -- "dirty drinking" vs. "clean eating". Mimi is (used to be?) a fan of clean eating, if memory serves, she might be your prime source of useful information, VintagePoison. We here try to eat sensibly -- overdo it today, nothing for you tomorrow -- and do not do margarine, corn (thanks, Monsanto!), pork, shrimp, catfish and other scavengers.
Going apple-picking today. Can't wait. Will wear Bois 1920 Kimono Rose (don't let the pink color of the bottle fool you, it is some serious stuff inside, borderline sensual even).
