It is a day of rain and work here (with perhaps time to clean as well). That means, of course, that I am suddenly yearning for distraction from the many things I need to accomplish. ANYWAY, 8 Things:

Cheers and a great day!

Steeping mixed fruit in Earl Grey. WHOA. That sounds kind of awesome.

It is extremely awesome, really enhances the flavour of the fruit and gives just a background hint of Earl Grey.

Peter Capaldi just gets hotter and hotter!

Your endorsement makes it definite: I'm baking a loaf this afternoon, as a reward for my work. :) Thanks for weighing in, K!

And Capaldi absolutely is getting hotter and hotter. :)

Hugs and a good day!

To me, something about the lushness of the fabrics look too delicious to be a Puritan's garb. :) But the severity of the completely buttoned white shirt does support your reading!

Cheers, and stay dry on this wet day.

Those are some very good things.

I was thinking about Hulu Plus, too. They have some interesting things.

The fact that neither Netflix nor Amazon has the Truffaut films I'd like to watch is in fact a selling point -- and Hulu Plus also has a BBC connection. Hmmm....

Cheers and hugs!

The tea loaf sounds amazing!

The tea loaf is baking now. :) I don't know if it'll be good, but my kitchen smells deliciously of cranberries and tea!

Cheers and a great Saturday! [hugs]
