On to better things

I'm happy to report that Kevin's fully recovered and none the worse from his bout with walking pneumonia. I celebrated this with a couple of glasses of the 2005 Beaujolais Nouveau yesterday.

I admit, it's late in the season to try it out for the first time. When I was living in Europe, we had the traditional 'le Beaujolais Nouveau est arrive' party in October. Alas, this is North Carolina, and I lack the wine-connaiseur friends here to go out and celebrate the wine's arrival (that, and there is no public transport here to get safely home afterwards:-).... Eventhough it was in the comforts of my own home and not in a chic bistro, I still enjoyed the wine. It wasn't the best Beaujolais Nouveau I'd had in my life, but very drinkable. Cheers!

I'm off to Salt Lake City for the next 3 days for the Sundance Film Festival. I've never been before and quite looking forward to it. Not sure on how good internet connectivity will be from there, but will try to send you some snapshots.
