Brrr, indeed! An Irish Coffee might warm you up more.
-
And it made the news in Ireland.
-
Greetings, Gary!

I was going to complain about you Americans going against tradition by not having your National Coffee Day on the same day as the international one... But then I found out that there is a National Irish Coffee Day. 25th January. Irish Coffee isn't normal coffee. It has a shot of Irish Whiskey added, and cream floated on top. If it's made in a glass, it almost looks like a Guinness.

Greetings, young Albert! And it's International Coffee Day in two days time. https://nationaltoday.com/international-coffee-day/

Beautiful! Thanks, Abert. It's definitely going on my bucket list. (And I recognise quite a few locations from those photographs you shared with me last year.)

And we all know what they say about people who have big feet....

Hi, Gary!

Greetings, young fellow.
-
Pleasant enough day here, after a bit of rain to begin with. But the forecast for most of the week isn't all that great. Hey, dughlas!

My mam would sometimes add carrots. But when I was a kid, growing up in the north of England in the fifties and early sixties, the only corn that was readily available was cornflakes for breakfast.

I've been thinking about this, and can't help but wonder if we'll ever get to @chris191070 page...

To be truthful, traditionally it wouldn't have had the fruit, unless it was sliced apple. More likely sliced cucumber, tomatoes, celery sticks, lettuce, and maybe a wedge of pork pie and/or some sausage rolls. And lashings of chutney and/or relish!

Oh, there has to be lamb! If you use beef, it would be cottage pie. (I think we had this discussion a few month's back.) For some reason this reminds me of a large notice that was on the wall behind the bar of a pub that I occasionally called into in the Pennines in the north of England back in the 1970's. They also served bar food, and one of their specialities was ploughman's lunch (which was the reason I used call in whenever I was hiking in the area). The sign had a photo of their famous ploughman's lunch, and in big letters above it was written: "You show me a real ploughman and I'll show you a real ploughman's lunch." Next time I'm in England, I must call in and see if they still do it.

Looks amazing, as well! And tasty.

How's things, Page?
-
And the same right back at you, Gary!

Greetings, young Albert!

I'm sorry, people... But shepherd's pie without peas just isn't shepherd's pie.
-
Sorry... I just can't resist...
-
I hope it's not a hungry eye...

Hi, Gary!

I've already had to put the heat on for at least an hour or two some evenings this past week or so. Here's the short term forecast from Met Éireann for my area in Ireland:
