Addendum/Correction




Remember this? Well, it has been occurring to me in the last few days that I did not buy this flask myself (for it is a flask) but that, as with so many of the most beautiful things I own, it was given to me by my Darling Lis.
And I confirmed that on the phone this morning.
What a dolt I am!
With no memory.
She was very graceful about my faux pas because she is the most graceful of women.
But dammit, I NEED TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT!
And so I have.
Thank you, my darling girl!

And no, I have not been able to trace its origins and I have spent way too much time trying. I have found similar old flasks but none of them of remotely the same in manufacture or decoration.
Only that one in the house in Cuba where Ernest Hemingway lived.
I do love a good mystery.

Which leads me to this- no. I have not found my simmer mats.
If I ever do, I shall name them Hell and Damn.

All right. That's all. I need to get back to picking up and dragging fallen branches from last night's storm. There are a goodly plenty.

  1. Aw, no, not the simmer mats! Did they get thrown out with the debris?

  3. My guess is that if you order new simmer mats the old ones will turn up right after :)

Tell me, sweeties. Tell me what you think.
