The Literature. (Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain)

“Tom said to himself that it was not such a hollow world, after all. He had discovered a great law of human action, without knowing it -- namely, that in order to make a man or a boy covet a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to attain”


The Film

Tonight at 7 on Talking Pictures: Brighton Rock (1947) but approach with caution


The food

Hungarian Ghoulash (paprika and just a suggestion of caraway) served with a dollop of sour cream and crusty bread



I am on the doss today after a lovely swim. I am still not completely recovered from a recent bad head cold and I am getting ready for what lies ahead.
