had a very jolly trip to morito last night - probably should have been ages ago, and will certainly return.  next week i am off to the continent to cook some fish and do nothing for a bit - in advance of that have 5 days to take advantage of excellent summer produce from the verrow (black current clafoutis below).

 some cooking today - italianate pea soup and a rather lovely black currant pie (thanks to jane at fv for inspiration and the wonderful produce):

more mountain goats (am i having a mid life crisis?):
