Stuff I'm enjoying
Jan. 30th, 2019 10:24 amStar Trek: Discovery! The first two episodes have delighted me and I'm enjoying it a lot more than the first season.
Afternoon teas. Sis and I took Mum out to afternoon tea on Saturday as her Christmas present and it reminded me how much I love the entire experience. We went to the Midsummer Night's Dream themed tea at the Swan by the Globe and it was lovely. We're making a list of more afternoon teas we want to do.
Books! I'm on a good book roll. The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle was brilliant and kept me guessing all the way to the end. I'm almost at the end of Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik and as long as it sticks the landing, I'll recommend it. And somehow I've eaten almost the whole of The Duchess Deal by Tessa Dare in less than a day.
English winter. So much less distressing than Canadian winter. Today I'm working from home and enjoying the sunshine glittering on the pretty dusting of snow we got last night. It's melting off now, but it's still pretty.
Choir. It's such fun, I've met new people, and I'm getting to sing some wonderful pieces. We're doing three songs from The Greatest Showman this term, plus a beautiful John Rutter and we're tackling the Hallelujah chorus. The choir mistress has also fallen for Kirby Shaw, so we're doing a number of his arrangements of different pieces. And Marylebone liked us so much that we've been asked back to sing at Christmas and they want us to do an evening during the summer.
My cats. They're frequently ridiculous, but they're also the best cats and so snuggly.
