May 14th part 2

May 14th quickly became the 15th.  Visitor Blim arrived and we had another Circle.  The day featured local lamb as the special guest:

Here’s what was played:

Pretty nice, right?

 

Right as the Caliph left, “Whirlpool Patrick” came to resolve a domestic issue that had been ongoing for weeks.  Under the watchful eye of Captain Cat, we now have a working fridge with bells and whistles (for now):

In other news, RIP Powers Boothe.  An actor of the highest degree of excellence and dignity.  From his tour de force as Jim Jones:

May 14th part I

As ever, the date has a profound resonance.

This year we coincided with Mother’s Day.

This year we had our first Sunday Night 3 Person Circle on May 14th.

One time Groove Factor MC John Loring returned for his second Circle.  He was joined by me and BMF.

This “art” shot features the cutting board that once held the kielbasa.  Served with the kielbasa was mustard, bbq sauce, and the famous “2000 Island” dressing.  Swirled into this aftermath:

We managed 3 full Olympic Standard Circles, fueled by “Allen’s Ginger Brandy”:

Pretty nice, right?

 

Going back in time to last monday, we managed another 3 person circle.  Again with BMF and Visitor Blim.  Manhattan seems on sabbatical, in lieu for the refreshing soda water, lime, and Don Julio:

Lamb coconut curry on the left, a sufficient offering for the luncheon.  Egg and vegetables on the right for the host to begin the day:
