Care of a kind word from a co-worker, I learned that the LCBO Vintages folk released 375 ml bottles of Lustau East India Sherry on Saturday. As I know my mother does not read this blog...or the internet at all ¹...I know I am safe to admit this is her stash for wee cakes and scones and after a nice bit of lamb and with a wee bit of blue cheese and beside a dish of trifle...and before and after a nap. Here is a review from one wine site's review of the Lustau range as well as one from a wine blog. Note: "A blend of Soleras averaging 15 to 50 years of age." Yum! Wee whisps of the 1950s in the glass.
¹'cause onywin tha' dae is gang tae Scots Prrrrresbyterrrrian HELLLLLLL!

The Sears Christmas Wish Book arrived on Friday. Confusion, followed by mild consternation, followed by joy.

Of course, _none_ of the LCBO outlets in my vicinity carry this, so I'm going to have to range further afield to try it. Honestly . . . eight LCBO stores within 30 km, and none of 'em have stock.
