Happy Sake Sunday!

Happiness is contagious!
You may have noticed that often Sundays are a time when The Mister and I have a quiet afternoon of nibbles and sake.

We then retreat to our separate corners and read or write, or sometimes we watch a dvd or cruise the TV looking for movie together.

I'll make a light dinner when the sun is setting, and he'll play an album to round off the day.

We call it Sake Sunday. A chance to connect. A time to reflect. Meeting with food and laughing about the stories we read.

Have good times with the ones you love, and grab the button on the sidebar and share.

I believe happiness is contagious.

The Pouring Of Sake


A collection of nibbles and the pouring of sake for this latest edition of Sake Sunday, I present to you.



I bought a new toaster. One that automatically lowers. No manual pushing down of lever. So making toast is my new hobby. And putting things on toast is the corollary.

So roasted garlic (slightly burnt, I know they look like shiitakes), hummus, pickles (a palette freshener), double cream gouda (sigh), brie (double sigh), and some sliced pears (because I love the brie-pear combo).
