Favourite thing today: (I'm resisting the desire to name a fat volume entitled 29 pamphlets as my favourite thing today [not to mention yesterday's two(!) volumes of pamphlets (tied together with a string; bound with marbled paper and leather) in the British library]) and instead noting Lamb and Flag Passage for the Britishness of it (Lamb and Flag? a passage that emerged almost out of nowhere and took me exactly where I wanted to go). Here's a picture:
I'm departing from my usual practice of consulting the list for a second favourite thing and instead giving another of my own: Kazbar restaurant. I mentioned this back in the fall when I listed my five favourite restaurants little knowing that I would actually go to this restaurant this year. It lived up to my expectations. It's a tapas place with very vegetarian friendly tapas, a great atmosphere, and good drinks. I went with Richard and Luisa and Daniel (who fell asleep about 15 minutes after arriving) and it was wonderful and relaxing and indulgent to eat, drink wine, and talk after an intensive work week.
And, last but not least: hearing Michal's voice on my cellphone tonight.
