Bits of my weekend

My parents were here, which was lovely, but somehow I managed not to take any photographs of them. I did, however, take photos of these things:

Ikea is basically the Ryanair of furniture, aren’t they? Extra costs for delivery and extra costs to put it together I get, but extra costs to take the thing upstairs and extra costs to drill the thing to the wall once it’s together, I don’t understand so much. Anyway, spent two hours on Saturday at IKEA with my parents. The first time we went round it was fun, the second time (when we realised we had missed a section, it was definitely less so).

I went to Dulwich for the very first time.

I cooked two really delicious Ottolenghi salads - this was the Jersey Royal Potato Salad with quails eggs. Wowee.

We went to Brixton Windmill. Brixton has a windmill? You say. Yes, yes it does. It is very pretty and re-opening to the public on May 2nd. I’m sad I’m not here. Although the windmill is next to a park where there was a 17 year old mum drinking Lambrini out of the bottle, so possibly not the nicest part of town…

We also went to the Canton Arms for dinner on Saturday night. This is my second time there and the food was absolutely spectacular. So so tasty, and not too pricey. Definitely worth going back.
