"But today, on the last day of August, just eight months, as he had reminded himself that morning, since Tracy had died, he sat in Queen Mary´s Rose Garden in Regent's Park, and his mind was totally occupied with just these things."

"James Bond got to his feet and went over and read the lead labels of the roses he had been gazing at. They told him that the bright vermilion ones were 'Super Star' and the white ones 'Iceberg'."

Ian Fleming "You Only Live Twice"

Food: Porridge with honey
007 Connection: Sir Roger Moore enjoyed porridge with honey as breakfast in Solo Sokos Hotel Torni, Helsinki, Finland (in room 431)
Experience of 007 Travelers: Self-made

Porridge (also spelled porage, porrige, parritch, etc.) is a dish made by boiling ground, crushed, or chopped cereal in water, milk, or both, with optional flavourings, usually served hot in a bowl or dish. It may be sweetened with sugar or served as a savoury dish. The term is usually used for oat porridge (porridge oats); there are similar dishes made with other grains or legumes, but they often have other unique names, such as polenta, grits or kasha.
