Yank in DK
@sauldk
Translator, editor, photographer, artist, cook (and telecook) for friends. Old guy, kept all of my LPs and CDs. Also kept all of my cameras. I block anyone who restricts replies.

A proper hotel breakfast menu from 1863. Note the "breakfast wine" section at the bottom. "Waiter, I would like to order some broiled pig's feet, stewed kidneys, stale bread, and a quart of Chateau Margaux. Oh, and hold the pig's feet, kidneys, and bread"
I (living in DK) bought a hardback version from a real bookstore in Ireland. Will be my companion in the Peloponnese later this summer
I have a whole set of Trastevere Calcio shirts. Pick up one most any time I am in Rome (we always stay in Trastevere)
BUT, the best sandwich in the universe is the sandwich mixte jambon de Paris emmental, cornichons and a blop of mustard, and a string of "demis"
Wow. "Observing" a thought. They swarm around my head like dragonflies around a Heron...
