While Mrs B has gone out to get her remaining steps in for the day (1400 - 700 out, 700 back, not a step more! 👣😄), I'm staying in with a book, wild garlic Cornish Yarg cheese & a splash of wine 📖🧀🍷
We spent some time today at the Pili Palas, a small nature park with a heated room, where the free-flying tropical butterflies are magical. I had a hand-sized brilliant blue butterfly settle for a few seconds on my nose, which was amazing! 💖🦋💖

Leftcoastzen That cheese ! Sounds like heaven! 6d
Bookwomble @Leftcoastzen Yarg is usually wrapped in nettle leaves, but this variant is wrapped with wild garlic leaves, which I think looks nicer, and the garlic flavour is very mild 😊 6d
dabbe The perfect lunch. 🧡💜💛 6d
LeahBergen This all sounds brilliant! 6d

She‘s not drunk — she‘s had
only four half bottles of
wine — wine helps her drink! 🍷

This would've been a good book if the author had focused exclusively on the arson case. It seemed as if she didn't have enough material to write exclusively on the arson, so she also wrote about everything else, spending two-thirds of the book writing about the entire history of the wine region. She should have stuck to the arson story, even if it meant writing a long article instead of a book. #2025Book21

Fascinating, a bit slow in places, but if you are a wine lover or interested in the history of wine, this book may be right for you. Following the wine tasting that changed the world of wine, this looks at the history of California wine and what happened when they beat the best French wines in France in 1976. I savored this one! #Doublespin #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I was surprised by this. I thought it would be Italy or France.
