Where has NaokoSmith gone? She's been missing for two weeks.
I believe a visit by 'Family' is making her a trifle preoccupied.

Ooh, the fella loves a good porchetta. The fennel would be too much for me, but he'd be all over it.Last week we went to the first restaurant I've ever been that served porchetta. Once it was laid on my plate I knew how the chef did it. Brilliant, really. Just cut open a boneless pork loin, stuff it with basil and fennel, wrap it in fresh pork belly, tie it up and roast it. It would probably be best if you took a propane torch to the outside to crisp up the pork belly and then cooked it 15 min/lb at 350F. Uncomplicated, after all, but it did take the man's imagination to get from a whole boned pig to something you can serve in a normal restaurant. I think I'll give it a shot Sunday evening.
Sounds like a plan, john. I like a spiced apple tea with honey. Warm lemon water with honey is good too.Ugh, my throat has been dry all day and is becoming more painful. Still got four more hours of work until I can go home. I think I'll stay on bed tomorrow.
Rolf, tea that's easy and soothing for the throat.

Yeah, we're getting rain here overnight. So good for the flowers, not so much the tomatoes, but the lawn and trees love it.Well, missed the thunderstorms. But walking out to the dirt smell of a light, warm rain is just as good.

You wanna run the concept of "spiced apple tea" past me slowly please?
Warm Lemon juice I can get, but Apple Tea ?
If we were getting more tomatoes, yeah I'd be all over that dish. Actually, toss in some fresh basil, and it's even better.Mmm, tomatoes. *licks lips* Sliced up with some pepper, oil, vinegar and fresh mozzarella.
How did your day go, anna?
It's an herbal tea. The vast majority of the teas I drink are herbal, unless I want a proper breakfast tea.You wanna run the concept of "spiced apple tea" past me slowly please?

Hi Nakeds!
Just checking in on the fly, I'm trying desperately to get my FAWC story done in time ... being on vacation all last week was not good timing.
I just wanted to thank Steve and Dampy for the incredibly encouraging comments on my newest stories. to you both!
Ok, I'm not here. I'm writing. I'm listening to some Gogol Bordello to keep me moving.

I haven't read it yet but I promise, I promise, I promise I will. Feel free to admonish me every day until I have.
Good evening, Dampy.
Hello.
I'm kind of not here.
*whispers* That's ok, I won't tell anybody.
You're a true... *cough* ...gentleman.
*cough* gentleman? Hmm. I see how it is.
See?! There you go. Gentlemen avert their eyes.
I plead the fifth.
ARG! I'm too unfocused to write. But my throat is killing me and making it hard to go to bed. I have to be up early too, not a good combo.
Let's see if I can at least get a paragraph in. Who knew getting two characters to make love on the grassy shore of a stream was so difficult.
Staying in bed today, curled up with my laptop.
