Who was Cassandra?
In the Iliad, she is described as the loveliest of the daughters of Priam (King of Troy), and gifted with prophecy. The god Apollo loved her, but she spurned him. As a punishment, he decreed that no one would ever believe her. So when she told her fellow Trojans that the Greeks were hiding inside the wooden horse...well, you know what happened.
Wonderful. And the shape - it's the lid of the tagine :-)

A cozy warm winter drink to chase away a winter chill.
Good job!
Blessings to you this fine day.

I should say!
I thought about starting a companion site called Slow Foods, but I have only three or four recipes. You, on the other hand . . .
If you don't have the time for such a worthwhile project, just have me over for dinner every night, and I'll do the posts!

Yes, Jean, you got it! Thank you...
Hello Robb! Hello Magnolia, both of you enjoying summer right now. Send us some warmth please!
Peter, that's a fun idea. This was a perfect "slow food" meal, taking a long time to cook and filling the house with wonderful fragrances, and then warming us and our guests who had walked here on a very cold night (it's only about 4 degrees now, mid-morning, and was colder last night.)

Oh, sensual! I love that line break - 'glis-tening'.
