Snow moon

This weekend's photo is of last night's magnificent Snow Moon, so named for the amounts of snow that usually fall this time of year, enhanced by clear skies.

Flashback Friday

 Nights of wine and roses.

This delightful small wine bar, a Montmartre mainstay now closed, was one of our favorite nighttime neighborhood ports of call for years. Fingers crossed it won't become another Covid casualty, as many have in Paris. To be continued.... [Update: it won't re-open. Thank you Wuhan carelessness]

Unsurpassed wine selection; all wines from Burgundy

Sacré bleu

Beautiful blue skies. Spring is on its way.

If you bought me diamonds
If you bought me pearls
If you bought me roses
Like some other gents
Might bring to other girls
It couldn't please me more
Than the gift I see -
A pineapple for me.

From It Couldn't Please Me More (The Pineapple song)
