| Je peux résister à tout, sauf à la tentation // I can resist anything except temptation |
The quote by Oscar Wilde naturally lead me to all sort of cake-related things. Cats normally are not much into cakes, but the cat is. Btw, the cake in the pic is "медовик", Russian honey cake, as I remember it being served in Parunāsim cafe in Riga — except that now I see they make rectangular pieces, not wedges.

| La plus belle courbe sur le corps d'une femme est son sourire // The most beautiful curve on a woman’s body is her smile |
Yesterday, local and national TV stations were showing a "virtual" carnival show in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Its equivalent in Las Palmas this year had the carnival spirit diluted to the point of being insipid, not to say homeopathic. So I was pleasantly surprised to see that Santa Cruz managed to keep at least some of the normal exuberance. It was just one show instead of many, and there were no public in attendance, but at least the costumes were beautiful. Maybe not as huge and expensive as normal, but still, quite impressive, very feathery.
Yesterday's quote by Bob Marley from Citation Célèbre got connected in my head with the show. The costume of the croquis is loosely based on number seven in yesterday's list.
