Once again onto the heath. Saw some “oak apples” which were quite eyecatching.

Pleasant though it was atop Parliament Hill I decided to go and hide in the woods. Here’s that log which always had the little piles of pebbles on it. I’m always surprised by how nobody disrupts them.

Some kind of mushroom growing through the leaf litter.

These are “oak apples” I believe, and actually contain some kind of was larvae.

Attempted to recreate the Sardinian Negroni we used to have years ago in one of the Olivo restaurants in Belgravia. It was never really on the menu, and really depended on whether the right member of staff was there. It seems the most obvious option is to replace the vermouth with Mirto.

Some Pane Carasatu (is this also known as Pane Carasau?) I also picked up recently in Belgravia.
