I am still blogging but just!!


Hi folks,
I am still here, life has been good and busy, too busy. one of the reasons that I haven't had time to blog is illustrated here.
BREAD, my obsession with baking bread reached it zenith in April 2011. my friends Anne and Pieter bought me Dan Lepard's how to bake book, and I made 'mother starter' which is fatal as I need to bake at least twice a week to keep it going!!
BUT as you can see the results are pretty spectacular and if I may say so myself amazing bread. thanks you Anne, Pieter and of course DAN!!

Bluebottle, Williamsburg, Brooklyn USA






NOT the flies!
This is an amazing coffee shop with in house roasting facilities (micro roastery?)
It's really beautiful and the coffee is amazing.
it feels like a 'warmed up' Apple store, with colour, marble, wood etc., but the 'come worship here' vibe remains, it is a catherdral for coffee worshipers.
I did the only decent thing and worshipped
SG 120
totally FAB
