#art, Now You Tell Me…

(«Picasso in Monument Valley, Utah/Arizona»/2024/Francisco Bravo Cabrera/All Rights Reserved)

Greetings folks! Hope y’all are having a smashing good summer! Now I know many of you are on holiday or thinking about it, and I am too, for sure, but work, what we call in Spain «faena» never really stops, does it? Well, maybe for you…

In any event I’ve some questions for you:

I have fully expressed who are my favourite painters, musicians and dancers, as well as my favourite album, my favourite movie, my favourite food and favourite drink. If you do not recall, or know what these things are, I will tell you…

  1. Picasso is my favourite painter, heads and shoulders above the rest.
  2. The Beatles are my favourite, superior to all the rest.
  3. Gene Kelly over the others is my favourite dancer.
  4. Revolver by The Beatles is my favourite album.
  5. Mary Poppins is my fave pic.
  6. Grilled Yellowtail is my favourite food (with tostones…do you know what tostones are? No? Ask a Cuban from Miami. 😁)
  7. Wine is my favourite drink (besides water, naturally)

SO NOW IT IS YOUR TURN.

Tell me what are your favourite things. In part two (coming soon) I will tell you my least favourite things and I will ask you about yours.

PLEASE PARTICIPATE IF YOU ACTUALLY READ THIS POST

cheers

  4. Picasso é meu pintor favorito, muito acima dos demais.

    Gosto muito dele, Di Cavalcanti e Tomi Otake

    Os Beatles são meus favoritos, superiores a todos os outros.

    Eles firsm, e são, muito especiais. Mas experimente os brasileiros Chico Buarque, Milton Nascimento e Chico Cesar

    Gene Kelly é meu dançarino favorito, acima de todos os outros.

    Esqueci o nome daquele vaikarink que dançou Bolero, de Ravel, aos pés da torre Eifel. Gosto muito.

    Revolver dos Beatles é meu álbum favorito.

    The Dark Side of the Moon

    Mary Poppins é minha foto favorita.

    Não sei escolher. Algumas fotos do nascer do sol ou do poente.

    Yellowtail grelhado é minha comida favorita (com tostones… você sabe o que são tostones? Não? Pergunte a um cubano de Miami.)

    Ahh, um arroz cozidinho, com frango, ora-pro-nobis, angu de fubá de milho, torresmo, feijão em grãos, couve cortada bem fininha, uns pedacinhos de folha de louro…. ummmm, comida bem típica de Minas Gerais. Como sobremesa um farto pedaço de queijo com goiabada ou doce de leite!!!

    O vinho é minha bebida favorita (além da água, naturalmente)

    Prefiro cerveja, uma boa cachaça do norte de Minas ou um Jack Daniel’s

      Abraço fraterno, do Brasil/Estado de Minas Gerais

    2. Oooh…too many artists to pick a favourite. The same goes for films and musicians.
      My favourite film is ‘The Green Mile’
      I love a good roast dinner, but then I also love monkfish.

          My pleasure. Fun task since it could be modified rather than stressed over
