less than a pound of gruyere and half a pound of ementhal.

garlic, wine, cornstarch.

We dont have kirsch.

I am getting used to my chartreuse, however very strong it is. Always diluted with water so far. Third small glass in 3 hours. I will see the new year a bit tipsy me thinks. I am weary today. The political climate is dreadful.

Everywhere. Soem predict the far right will be electedbin 2027 in france.

And we have poilievre around the corner in 3 or 2 years, in canada.

It is all very worrying. And last I heard the war in ukraine is still tough. And a bit desperate.

I am not paying enough attentio to the beauty of canada natural state these days. I live by forests and hills and views of mount baker and such.

Very green and foggy too these days. Thank you Lord God for such surroundings so perfect though it does not feel like a strong attachment to it from me, unlike if I was in quebec.
