Today I cooked. I made lemon almond shortbread cookies and chicken cacciatore.
My neighbours came for dinner in the back garden. We had the shortbread with strawberries so delectable I want to weep. I have more for the morning. We're all full. (They've gone.) I'm sitting in the backyard watching the fire until it burns out, so thought I may as well do this at the same time. We had wine. We chatted. Jokes. The cats popped by and around - they've been wanting extra company as well, it seems.
I didn't consume much media today, although I did have the radio set to a station I'd never heard before, called BBC London I think. The DJ that was on first just kept saying she wants to know how I am. Then there was a vox pop call in section and that was... interesting. People from all sides giving their two cents. There was one guy who was advised he only had a few seconds to wind things up before the pips, and he ummmed and arrrd for a bit and I sort of wasn't listening but when he said "and I'm not going to apologise for slavery," the nice DJ said RIGHT THAT'S ALL WE HAVE TIME FOR.
