Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

He told me on the phone Sunday that he would like to cook one more time for his friends. I hope he can do it, it always made him feel good to see people enjoying his cooking.

Evidently the prospect of anyone being the slightest bit happy is enough to keep PCad away.

it is very good, which means, of course, that it will last a length of time inversely proportional to how well I can avoid simply eating slices of bread for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!
