Considering yesterday’s post of yet another translation of one of your books (I think it was Starter Villain to Czech) aside from the obvious translator doing a translation.

How is the process different for translations of your work? I assume that you haven’t learned Czech (I may be wrong)

Decided to go with a bubbly rosé for this evening’s #wine. It’s Summer

NV #CavedeBlenheim Clement d’Alsace Black Rose!

Some things just goes well with good food. Tonight’s dinner 🐓 Tikka Masala, 🐓 Vindaloo, and Bengan Bharta… when I can’t figure out what to drink with it, I figure a nice bubbly

On the opposite extreme of the subject of selling books.

Huge earthquake off the coast of Russia (Kamchatka) and we have #Tsunami warnings all over the Pacific side of the world.

My sister is leaving Kauai in about 2 hours and change (just about when they expect Tsunami waves) and the e West Coast is expecting some effects from the Tsunami

Got this photo from my best friend this evening and I was incorrect.

He asked me to guess the section at Staples Center they’re seated in this evening for the #Sparks #WNBA game against the #Aces

Apparently I was wrong by 8 seats…

Then again we’re deep in the Summer and that’s my excuse!

I don’t spend much time with the FilAm Bay Area community.

So, I don’t know…

Enjoy your meal!

So, how good is the BBQ? Aside from the obvious pork and chicken BBQ, what else do they BBQ? Pusit (squid)? Anything else?

I didn’t even realize that I had this there. I’m guessing my niece got it for us as a present…

If so, I am a proud uncle. It was yummy. Other 2019 Pinot Noirs in my wine rack and not my wine fridge may not be as tasty as this one. I felt like I should’ve opened it for an “occasion”.

The front bottle of a Pinot Noir with the label Chateau St Jean 2019 and the words Pinot Noir in the bottom part of the label.

On the label is a black and white illustration of a building that looks like a mission style building with vineyards in the foreground and a mountain in the background.

Had a #PinotNoir this evening that I don’t remember purchasing…

I’m guessing it was a present from family.

It was divine and paired well with the trout we had for dinner

It’s been a few days ago, so, I don’t remember… if this one had some fruit notes or if it was the Rose the night before.

Pretty sure it was the Riesling that had the fruit.

Similar miscalculation with potentially more disastrous results in the Westbrook case should Russ end up without a deal at or better than his player option…

A different bottle of #wine with dinner this evening…

My wife prepared some lettuce wraps and figured a nice #Riesling would go great with it…

Thus a #Kabinett from #MarkusMolitor

It’s a great dry Riesling that is so food friendly and at 10% ABV easy to drink and stay less tipsy.
