Butcher
Actually something about Dulwich....
In our drive towards eating more healthily and frugally, we did our shopping at the local shops instead of the mega huge supermarket. Got lots of lovely fruit and veg from Pretty Traditional and then saw that a butcher's stall has finally opened up in the weekend market on Northcross Road. Hurrah! All free range or organic and looking nice, dry and hung rather than injected full of water. Unfortunately, we had already bought meat from Somerfield (I know - it's a supermarket) but next week...
Had lovely goat's cheese and courgette salad from Liquorish for lunch and then went to dance class. Leftover spag bog for dinner (yum) and now for tasty ham yook jung for breakfast today.
Finished 10,000 Miles Without A Cloud by Sun Shu Yun. Twas very readable. Now I know lots more about Xuanzang, the monk on whom Journey to the West is based. And it was good to read about all the remote countries and places along the route he took to India. Especially as I wasn't very sure where some of them were. Ah, what an ignoramus. It's bad that there are whole countries that I'm very vague about.
Off to Kew today. Hurray!

Back from holiday
Back at work yesterday. London is sweltery hot (or at least public transport is). Haven't unpacked and have lots of chores to catch up on. Good thing it's bank holiday this weekend.
Revenge of the Sith and Marc Chihuly exhibition at Kew to look forward to, topped off by Ben Folds at Apollo Hammersmith on Tuesday. A truly pan cultural weekend.
Due to lack of Malaysian cuisine will spend most of weekend eating sotong.
