Cheese

Corn, schmaltz, schlock, whatever. It was pretty. By the way, this was taken from our back deck, and the Trellick Tower is in the lower left.

Kitty cart?

It occurred to me that LB could use this little circus wagon I spotted on Goloborne Road to take Mr. Poops for walks.

Chip Update

More and more, you see packages of "potato chips", not "crisps". Well, at least in the swanky expat stores like Partridges in Kensington. Speaking of which, they sell their own brand of mostly ordinary flavors with fancy names. However, perhaps because it's autumn, they've also got Chestnut Stuffing potato chips. At the same store they also stocked Kettle Chips "seasonal" Apple, Sage & Thyme flavor. A while back I spotted Burts Smoked Streaky Bacon flavor I think somewhere along Westbourne Grove. There's a picture of the package on my flickr site (no big whoop, but it's there because my phone now insists on uploading every picture I take directly to flickr).

Lazy (Toyo Ito Spoon)

I'm lazy. Please look at my flickr™ photostream® to see what we've been up to lately. Neat pictures of the Battersea Power Station, where we went to see an installation of contemporary Chinese art. I'm also going for my 3rd meeting at Arup on Tuesday. Interviewing for a 3-month project that involves ICT (information & communication technologies) and sustainability in Dongtan. Dongtan's a new "eco-city" being developed in the Yangtze River delta outside Shanghai.
