Well, this was my dish for the lunch time. And... yeah.. it is the second dish! Pfft Before I ate a very good octopus with onion/agrion/oil/vinegar and some more spices Pfft And there was a very nice "marisco" soup made by my brother (a very good cooker! Better than French cookers Pfft)


legend for the dish Smile and more. eheh

1 - wine from Reguengos - vinho da zona de Reguengos
2 - Champagne Raposeira (I think!, lol)
3 - Condest?vel OLIVE oil - azeite Condest?vel - very, very good! I forgot the "OLIVE" word! LOL
4 - salt Vatel - sal Pfft lol
5 - spicy roast goat-kid - CABRITO assado no forno e com especiarias. Wink
6 - roasted potato - batata assada
7 - rice with kidneys and much more visceral parts of goat-kid. Pfft - ARROZ de mi?dos! (literally in English would be KIDS' RICE! lol)
8 - surprise... try to realize what is it... Smile

the spices we use are gengibre, "noz moscada", malagueta, pepper, "pimentos", and some more. Wink

Yummy - looks totally delicious Jorge. We had roast duck, but I didn't take a photo, so I can't share. Pears poached in red wine for dessert.

#8 looks like spinach, but is that too obvious to be right?

My photo is of me with my present.

Both wrong. I will tell what is it very soon. But you can keep trying to guess.

Susan, now with an entomological net in one hand you can quickly catch many flies.

There are nets for automobiles, but the flies get squished. Maybe a bicycle net would work!? Cool

I can't quite remember what all that green "hair" is under the wheels. If you had tried this shot in Atlantic Canada this Christmas you would see only the handlebars and above. But this week the Pollenia were flying - but still no green "hair".

Susan, you are not really in danger.
Ian Walker of the University of Bath published a very impressive study in 2006 showing that:
* cyclists with helmets get hit more by cars than cyclists without
* females with long hair (or in his case, a male with a wig) get less hid by cars.

So keep the ponytail

[I'm not joking, I will provide the reference if someone is interested]

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol
