RENAULT PILLOWS
Hand-knit by a surgeon, Renault Pillows [TM] will make you feel entitled on your sofa, armchair, or chaise lounge. Sewn from Scottish woolen and acrylic yarns, these pads are pre-tested for color resistance (the hot-water test is shared in the video).
Unique with no reprise, each pair has a name. Dissimilar within, the pair cross-complements. One has a backside pocket to hide your wishlist, to-do list, shopping list, or anything else - private and special. Pillows come with zippers (or buttons) and handmade labels with the letters 'R' and 'P' subsumed. From the first knit to the zipper, the making of a pair takes up to 4 days (i.e. maximum of 2 days per pillow - back and front).
Renault Pillows will energize your room with a theme and springtime ambiance. Select a design from https://renaultdecor.wix.com/renault-pillows. A pair with filled inserts costs an extra $12.00.
The Renault Rule: Both front and back sides of each pair stand-alone to fill the room by making a statement (see images below). Thus, by buying one pair, you technically pay for two.

Show 7: Manx Cuisine
MENU 7: (1) Appetizer - Queenies & Trumpets (min 06:24, 06:51); (2) Entrée - Beef Wellington (min 12:01); (3) Dessert - Hazelnut Butter Toffee w/ Dates & Cashews (min 30:24). Silver show at min 26:30. For the adorning songs or background music, credits and thanks to Bee Gees (for "How Deep Is Your Love," and "Night Fever"), The Dubliners (for "Isle of Man'), Bonnie Tyler (for "It's A Heartache"), Ruth Keggin (for "The Road to Clady"), Sweet (for "Ballroom Blitz"), Dido (for "Tu Tu Tu Ru"), Chris Norman & Suzi Quatro (for "Stumblin' In"). I hope that the professional chefs will tolerate my inadvertent diversion from the Wellington traditions by using Angus beef instead of the required tenderloin: I could not find tenderloin in the stores lately. Startingly, the Angus worked well too, for the medium-rare effect (min 25:04).

Rules of the "Bonne Bouche" kitchen
In a spirit of French remoulade or clafoutis, Victorian consommes or Swedish långkok, I exuberate limitless combinations of tastes, smells, textures, & colors. MyWay Cuisine captures multi-ethnic flairs through creative alterations. My menu-oriented show presents three meals (appetizer, entrée, dessert) per episode as well as a few pieces of my antique solid silverware from British, German, Russian masters. The "Cooking for My Son" series presents a meal per short. Due to the misanthrope simpletons, I was in a decennial hardship; what you see is my limited life. Used to face groups of attackers alone, I find in any disadvantage a spark and propeller for a deeper joy. C'EST LA VIE!
