Seven Things I love

SOme time back Snoopy the Goon over at Simply Jews tagged me for this theme. I had totally forgotten about it but better late than never....

The mission is simple: list the seven things you love and tag seven other victims. Simple.

It appears that try as I might, I am unable to improve on Bob's list, so here it comes, with two remarks afterward.

  1. The not-wife. A no-brainer for the number one spot given that it is getting on for 28 years since we first met
  2. The cats. We don't have kids but the furry monsters act as evil masters instead!
  3. A really good book. I can't top Snoopy on this one.
  4. Good company and good conversation with my small circle of intimate friends
  5. Good music.
  6. Good food.
  7. Good drink, especially a nice bottle of Cote Rotie or a decent cask conditioned beer if in a pub
Now who to tag? Ach just seven? You are all welcome to give this one a go!

I'm glad to see the not wife tops the list and I'm sure she it too. Sounds like a good life you have there Jams.

If you include French wines to the drinks you like, this list is perfect, Jams. But even if you don't, I admire your 28 years with the not-wife. Nothing else is truly important. All the best!

Not a bad life at all jmb. I give thanks for what I have

Ah Cote Rotie is a Rhone wine Claudia. I much prefer Rhone wines to Bordeaux and Burgundies
