The finer things in life.....
This afternoon I'm kicking back, enjoying a few delectable nibbles.....
A cheese platter comprised of triple cream brie, smoked gouda, peppercorn havarti, blue vein, and black truffle brie.
Coupled with venison salami, rosemary crackers, spicy chutney and kalamata olives.
Fresh, chilli-marinated mussels, paprika hot-smoked salmon, and a creamy blue cheese dipping sauce.
Of course, it's not a party for one with a nice glass of wine; in this case a lightly-wooded Hawkesbay region Chardonay!
Just put a movie on.
Which one?
How to be Single.
Later, I'll run a nice salt or bubble bath, light some calming incense, put some soothing music on, and imbibe in another glass of vino or two.
Life, as they say, is for living!
What 'finer things' do you enjoy every now and then?
Try slow sips of a Hungarian dessert wine named Tokajii Aszu (4 or 5 putenos - stars_, taking time to savor the full bouquet. Be sure to have a cuip of strong black coffee before and between sips. To me, it is so delicious that it brings to mind the image of Odin's mead -- "the nectar of the gods." It ain't cheap -- costs about $50.00 for a half-liter bottle, but for a rare treat for yourself, it is worth it.
Nice! Want company? LOL
It's been a long time since I've enjoyed any of the finer things. The finest thing I can think of would be sitting on the beach, maybe during a sunset, Corona w/Lime, hopefully with a friend and a little conversation.
I'll be right there!
