A few bits and piecesMy daughter Elli introduced me to something newCigarette etiquette
When you open a new packet...... Which most of you will never doYou turn one cigarette upside down and make a wish. Then you leave this for last. I followed her instructions.... and took it out absentmindedly and lit the damn thing at the wrong end. Typical. I've stopped smoking cigarettes and vape instead. Sparingly. Neither habits are cheap, or healthy, but I can buy vapes without nicotine and with interesting flavours. Salted caramel, g & t.

From niece Niki in NZHere we had tzatziki crisps but I've never seen souvlaki flavoured, and extra crunchy
From Grandaughter NelsLast night's sunset, a brilliant orange . The sky all afternoon was covered in smoke from wildfires around Athens and produced these intense colours as the sun went down. The shop where Nels is working this summer makes their own ice cream. They're working on gin and tonic and Pina colada ice cream. Her boss is a master baker and avant garde ice cream maker, the best on the island.Yesterday was one of the hottest yet. At 11pm we were down at the harbour drinking 'coffee'. It was still very hot and sweaty with hardly a breeze. It was a lovely evening anyway with Poppi and her Mum and Dad. Today isn't much better but tomorrow the heat will let up a little. We hope. 8pm now and there's a hot wind and little relief.

I do hope it will be more comfortable for you tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteInteresting crisps - I always stick with ready salted or salt and vinegar - so dull!
That is an impressive sunset photo. Looks like your world is on fire.
