October, 8th

Today in 1953, Kathleen Ferrier died of incurable breast cancer, that also affected her bones. But not her great contralto, one of the best singers of her time. Her oevre ranged from Monteverdi to Mahler. She was 44 years old.                                                                                                                                                             On a lighter note we were in St. Eulalia for lunch. The plat du jour was Tomatosoup w/Sherry, Loup de mer en croute de sel aux legumes, Poulet aux ailes and Crema Catalan and a cortado. Very good and not too expensive at 60€ for two, wines included. So, dinner will be just some sandwich. Laters Pilgrim...P.S. I was almost sure, my little remeberance would bring my friend Martin to collaborate on the voal examples to my post on Mrs. Ferrier. Go to his site later to find out. ...PPSS: this is no affirmative action!*lol*
