Bought two books this morning. Memoirs of a Geisha and a cookbook called Home Food. I like cookbooks that have dessert sections in them. I also like books that are entirely dessert focused but I already have the one that fits that description in this series (it's called Sweet Food).
For lunch I wandered forlornly (sp?) down the road. I went into the bakery with the intention of getting a sun dried tomato and olive scroll. However they were not particularly good today. Very small and... small. I mentioned this to the lady who works there (I am a regular. I can walk in and say "I'll have the usual thanks") and she concurred and was most kind when I said I thought I'd wait til tomorrow. Wandering continued til there was but one food shop left and then only houses and a hardware store. However the one food shop was Sydney Gourmet Burgers. A chilli burger more than made up for the scroll disappointment.
And liquorice. There was some waiting on my desk when I arrived home. From my grandma. Who was given it by my great uncle. My grandparents don't eat liquorice. But I do!
