So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Christmas the Aftermath Growing in depth and beauty with every play.
Midlake's the Trials of Von Occupanther, fabby.
I've had a remarkably themed Christmas this year, with an abundance of things culinary, both books and gadgetythings. I am going to spend a while in the kitchen methinks.
Christmas day was spent as per the last few, with mumsy. Spent a totally chilled time sipping champagne and cava and cooked duck with roasted (to perfection) potatoes, roasted parsnips and sprouts finished in the frying pan with butter and bacon. I could feel the weight going on with every mouthful. Fortunately, the starter was a light melon and parma ham and the pudding was a simple concoction of poached apricots with fig and hazelnut in a filo pastry served with vanilla ice cream. The one downside of the day was when mrs tnr opened her pressie from mumsy, my face must have been a picture as pressie was a digital camera, which I had also got her arghhhhh!
I'm on holiday for almost 2 weeks, which means I'll spend too much time on this and too much time watching wall to wall repeats of River Cottage.
