Having begun the book yesterday, I read much more today of P.D. James’s ‘Devices and Desires’.
Tonight’s dinner consisted of succulent duck roasted in plum sauce, boiled potatoes; crunchy carrots; firm Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and cauliflower; with fried chestnut mushrooms. Jackie drank Diet Coke and I drank Paarl Shiraz 2023
Dinner look delicious, Derrick
Thanks very much, Ivor
Oh…yum!

Ooh yummy! Jackie, your dishes look so delicious! 😋❤️
I have only read one of P. D. James’s novel, but I don’t remember the title. I do remember it was about a little girl who had been horribly abused.
I don’t know that one, Laurie. Thanks very much
That dinner looks very good!!
Thanks very much, Liz
You’re welcome, Derrick.
That looks colorful and delicious!
Thank you very much, Barbara
Nice alliteration. 🙂 I think I read that P.D. James book, but it was a long time ago.
Thanks very much, Merril
Curious, I looked up chestnut mushrooms and read they have, “potential antibacterial or antimicrobial characteristics.” I bet they’re yummy, too.
They are, JoAnna. Thank you very much
The dinner Jackie made looks delicious, Derrick. You two eat better than any 5-star restaurant!
Thank you so much, Lavinia
I have enjoyed the novels by P.D. James and, of course, I approve of your choice of wine!
