Sugar Land

iPhone photography: dusted with snow

It's like someone powdered the trees with icing sugar. Or dipped them in a bag of sugar. Or poured a bag of flour over the landscape. Or something like that... And it's breathtakingly beautiful!

I've been spending more time offline, unplugged. Batching my internet activities three times a week. It's bliss. Now if I only got round to sorting out my mailbox too!

And I'm looking for a good recipe for Boeuf Bourguignon for my birthday dinner. I'll be serving it either with potato puree or Potatoes Boulangères and a green salad. Not sure what the desert or starter will be yet. I'm thinking of trying Delia Smith's recipe for Boeuf Bourguignon but I'm interested to hear if anyone has any other recommendations?
