steamy felicie mushrooms

it's in the mid- to high-seventies, this afternoon -- according to the weather channel's web-site, it's 78 or 79 degrees now -- somewhat humid -- feels a lot hotter,...like it's in the nineties -- maybe that's because of how cold it has been -- in the mid-forties, and maybe even colder

yesterday,...walking around in the afternoon,...i got tired and sleepy -- was warm,...relatively speaking -- could have also been tired because of my...sleep patterns


i found a picture of the outside of felicia, from my visit in march
that's felicie, beyond the car -- their outdoor seating area -- to the right is the gateway leading to the church of the holy trinity -- on the left is ausros vartei gatvĂ© (gate of dawn street -- pronounced awsh'ros -- i think i misspelled it, in the earlier post) -- we can see st. theresa church, there, in the distance, on the left -- to the right of that, the alley continues, leading to the gate of dawn, with its miracle-working painting of the virgin mary

the mushroom soup we had there featured the special lithuanian mushroom baravykai -- called boletus, in english -- umm-umm -- i'm gonna try getting some, and cook them,...even though they might only be available now, frozen or dried
 
 
 
in case i haven't mentioned it before, mushroom- and berry-picking are a big thing here

brrrrr

before i get back to drinks or bibliotekas,...or anything else,...a little weather report

people have been wearing overcoats here,...today and yesterday -- raincoats,...jackets,.... -- maybe the days before too -- i don't remember -- it's 57 or 58 degrees, at four o'clock -- the high hasn't gone much over 60, the last two days,...if it has even reached 60 -- it's to get to 50, overnight -- might have dipped into the forties, the last couple of nights -- my summer costume is always,...t-shirt and shorts (polo shirt, half-sleeve shirt, whatever) -- not today or yesterday -- long-sleeve shirt,...for sure -- and long pants -- socks, too -- although i've been formal here -- want to look presentable,...when i go into these libraries -- haven't worn shorts yet,...i don't think -- maybe once,...for a very short foray -- reminds me of being in baghdad

actually, i just looked at the weather channel's web-site -- even though it reaches 66, 65 and 67 degrees, the next three days, it goes to 46, 45 and 47, overnight

funny

it's supposed to warm up, saturday -- crack the 70-degree mark

i finally was able to find the temperatures for past days, on the weather channel's web-site -- the high was 62, yesterday; 59, sunday; 70, saturday

now,...back to drinks or bibliotekas -- i like saying "biblioteka"
