#Wordoftheday: glirarΓ­a.

Romans raised dormice in ceramic pots called gliraria or vivaria. The dormice were fed and watered until they were fat enough to eat.Β They were then killed and cooked for banquets. The dormice were sometimes served with honey and poppy seeds. #ancientrome

"A day late and a dollar short" as we say Stateside. Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States. Which was the day before they rustled up the Turkey & trimmings in Ambridge. #TheArchers

I recommend also reading 'Antinet Zettelkasten' by Scott Scheper.

That's inspiring! I was getting too hung up on making my original notecards conform to a revised numbering system.

Just made a couple of seasonal flavors that were well received at the Thanksgiving meal yesterday:

- Cucumber, Mint & Elderflower
- Pomegranate, Honey, Lemon.

Canadians are immediatly identified by frequently saying "Eh". Garrison Keillor once had a skit on Prairie Home Companion where Canadians
sneaking in across the US/Canada border were spotted when the inadvertently said "Eh".

Well, one thing to consider. If the scene had been played out in reverse (so to speak) Kate & Jacob would probably have been shot dead by a Second Amendement all-American homeowner. #TheArchers

Those are (writing from California) piss poor American accents. Chuck sounds a typically generic Texan most British actors will imitate when "doing American". Their version of Dick van Dyke doing Cockney in Mary Poppins. #TheArchers

A major influence (along with Dylan) behind my fascination with America that led me to emigrate from England 45 years ago.

My wife's family are from #Limerick and are quick to point out this is more a story of the impact of alcoholism on a family than a condemnation of that city.

This is as far back as I've been able to trace my ancestors. Anything earlier is lost in the mists of time on the cold, wet, Welsh hills. #geneology
