Simply..romantic February 11....

Today a friend and I revived Affogato Sunday - a thing we devised during the dark days of lockdown to help keep us sane.

First set a pretty table, then make a pot of espresso and get the ice cream out of the freezer. Get changed and put on some relaxing music. Meet on Zoom/WhatsApp whatever.... Enjoy. Romantic in its way, no?

Loving your suggestions for romantic films - keep them coming please.

I would add Out of Africa, Girl With A Pearl Earring, This Beautiful Fantastic..

Oh Freda , I read this while eating breakfast . (Boring toast ). Those photos made me feel so hungry. I did wonder about an extra course for breakfast but decided that was decadent rather than romantic . Will add it to my menu and don't think I will wait until Sunday..

Not a film, but a TV series: the BBC adaptation by Tom Stoppard of Ford Maddox Ford's wonderful Parade's End.
