Hello!

Welcome to The Epic! I am launching this blog as a manifesto for and a guide to living well. The title and motto of the blog are taken from the Epicureans, at least some of whom believed in the notion that not one minute of the future was guaranteed to them and that as a result they had the duty to live life to its fullest every moment.

I believe in discovering fun and pleasurable things wherever I find myself each day and I am told I have a knack for unearthing them. My hope is that by sharing in my pleasures and some of my ways of finding them you will begin to collect all the riches that lie in the moments of your life. They are there. Take them! All our lives should be.....Epic.

Back But Not Returned


I'm home. I have a lot to write and a lot of photos. But I can't write just now. You see, despite being home and being very, very happy, my mind is still wandering somewhere in Paris.  Still in flaneur mode. Where it may remain forever. Suffice to say, my nine day trip was many things. All of them a hundred times better than I expected.

I'll start telling you the story when I come back down to Earth a bit more.

Uncle, I'll tell you, you would have been proud of all the cheese I consumed during this trip! Not to mention the Bordeaux. Well, and Calvados.
