The Lebanese coffee I'd bought recently.

First attempt, with some baklava and dates.

Second attempt, here's the rakwa / tanaka in action.

I thought this Christmas card made an appropriat backdrop.

Erika having fun in her bouncer just before we headed out for the afternoon.

Erika in the Yo Sushi in Harvey Nick's - to begin with we put her buggy under the counter which seemed a bit boring for her...

...so she sat on my lap for the remainder of the meal. She seemed to like watching the sushi go round on the conveyer belt.

...and now she's swapped onto Mummy's lap.

I bought some new Vermouth today, and tried it out in a Negroni.
