@torunn saidNice to learn about semla! 🙂
I will be late today, Stees. Family dinner waiting with my daughter, granddaughter and great-granddaughter - tacos and then 'semla', our traditional pastry (wheat bread, whipped cream and almond paste). I quote: "You may not have come across these cardamom-scented, almond and cream-filled buns before, unless you have been lucky enough to visit Sweden at this time of year. Trad ...[text shortened]... wspapers start serious tasting tests to find the best in town."
Maybe something for the Tavern? 🙂
@kevin-eleven saidNo surprise here, gamby was a very good player for many years. He may have slipped a little, but I can see some of the old gamby left yet.

The one game I posted was just yesterday. I still can play great chess, and I've always mixed in a stupid move somewhere.
@kevin-eleven saidWOW 4 now, Fantastic! 🙂

@great-big-stees saidI should get a gold star! First thing I got correct this year! 🙂
Bingo.🤔👍😁
I am way better socializing in person than over the internet. So if you and your wife are going around the Cabot Trail, let me know. I'll meet up with you and the meal and drinks are on me. 🙂

Tell your friend it would be an elegant top of the line Restaurant.
