last night i cooked for e - we had roast veal, broad beans and fresh almonds, and then some cheese form the fromagerie. all went pretty well (i shall probably be roasting veal again), but the nicest thing we had was some good burgundy (this could perhaps be my best ever impulse buy). the night was pretty scorching, even with some late night strolling by the thames for refreshment.

went to putney last night and made lamb with fine beans followed by clafoutis - this i would class as a success. i wish i could have cooked the sort of "simple" dish marco might have made in neighbouring wandsworth a couple of decades ago.

i am in the office not working on the report i have to finish by tomorrow, rather spending the last hour listening to adam and joe and viewing the variety of clafoutis recipes on line. last night e and i finally went to visions video bar - sadly the music was a bit rubbish. however, it was a relatively interesting evening as we inadvertently stumbled upon one of london's premiere lesbian club nights. such a myriad of distinct looks i have not seen for some time.

i need to try and give up going out and getting hammered on fridays. i had a pretty fun time last night bidding goobye to max from work who joins creepy in the big apple soon. we ended up in the proud gallery and i did a bit of madness style dancing. come to think of it, i went a bit mad when la roux came on - i should say this is the sound of summer '09.

now the owner of quails and turnips for dinner, i had better get down to a bit of work if tomorrow is not to be too onerous.
