“And Something Else……………………….”
One evening, over a rye whiskey & Jazz at The Trellis, Carey Carson asked me about my blog. How was I inspired (Thank You Jeff)? What was the meaning of the last segment of my blog title “And something else”.
I told him I added that to the blog title as Christine was setting up my blog, to provide me the freedom to blog about something other than liquor and food. And my instinct was correct.
I am not going to bore you with the remainder of the conversation having to do with the necessity of writing style manuals. Cary
Ask me about the books I have read recently and it will be only fiction AND exclusively Stieg Larsson. With one exception. I checked out Elaine Sciolino’s La Seduction. I was delighted with the experience of reading this book. Quite taken with the aspects of French life that she describes from her life experiences in France Paris
So interested in different cultures and seek to better understand the French? Read Elaine’s delightful prose on how the French use ‘seduction” in all manners of their life.

Beer Facts:
ReplyDeleteWhile beer is not likely to qualify as a health food anytime soon, it does contain at least one ingredient that's good for you: silicon. A study released in February 2010 in the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture revealed that a couple of beers can provide a healthy daily level of silicon, which is important for bone health. Beers high in malted barley and hops had the most silicon, with Pale Ales topping the list. Wheat beers and lagers are less silicon-rich.
