It's so good to hear the echoes of your galumphing ways ringing around my comment box again. <br /><br />The sauterne was at the request of the chef, so he must have had his reasons. It went well with appetizer of gazpacho with cucumber, followed by a tease of smoked salmon + smoked mackerel with a dollop of freshly whipped mayonnaise, chased along by a delightful chunka duck à l'orange accompanied with a...hmmm...I do believe it was a cooked radish. Will such fare appease your Frenchified disdain and ease the scoff of pas de foie gras (I believe that's a ballet term, pas de foie gras)? Chef Claude did apologise for lack of caviar but the budget was not unlimited.<br /><br />I caught your drift all right, but I'd rather drift away into warmer thoughts than those of the inevitable, silent white noise that's not all that far off.<br /><br />I think you've got a bit of apricot stuck in your hair, BrO--but it's hard to tell.<br />:-)Lynne with an ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00320166770541319601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691575624480469934.post-69435302969054877282011-09-20T19:47:56.225-03:002011-09-20T19:47:56.225-03:00Nearly sprayed out my own mouthful of masticated a...Nearly sprayed out my own mouthful of masticated apricot on reading your reply, but choked it back barely, while guffawing and galumphing with glee... oui, the repartee shall remain contained to the canvas floor and within the ropes of this white domain which maintains that winter's snows shall soon again be singing their chilly refrains of falling flakes and drifting drifts, if you catch my drift... <br /><br />And sauterne ??? Hope you had some foie gras or somesuch to wash down with it... Personally I prefer such sweet flights of fancy with a chocolate mousse after dinner... but that's just me...Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12622587942009516590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691575624480469934.post-5106205336927591292011-09-19T20:48:12.014-03:002011-09-19T20:48:12.014-03:00Leovi,

Don't want barely masticated food bits and spittle spattered all over my comment box or landing on my readers' glasses.<br /><br />Sauterne for the first half of the dinner; Shiraz for the second. In tall wine glasses, as you envisioned so your ESP is ESPecially good this time round.<br /><br />Fencing? Just keep fencing with your blog ami/es within the boundaries of the white duelling boxes in friendly matches of repartée, witty stabs of irony, daring lunges of reason, jesting jabs of humour, and generally being en garde.
