One night

July 5, 2009

I went to see the private view of the exhibition by the Camberwell College of Arts BA Illustration Graduates THIS WILL KILL THAT.

Later on the same night, we went to see a late night film screening started after 11pm at the building where Sara works in Stoke Newington.

The starter was the Thriller, of course.

Rest in peace Michael Jackson.

Hot Summer (almost vegan) food

July 1, 2009

I announced to become a temporary vegan this week, so my house chef Jimmy (it’s not his actual occupation) made a big pot of vegan Thai red curry last night. It was so tasty that I had to have it again for lunch this afternoon – I couldn’t wait until the evening. It was just perfect for this hot weather.

Earlier today, I started to think ‘ oh, did he actually put fish sauce in it?’ as we always do with Thai curries. I checked it with him on the phone. ‘Yes, I did…’ he said. I have already cheated my vegan week…

Ah, I don’t know the exact receipt but here are some of the ingredients:

Coconut milk

Kaffir lime leaves

lemon grass

seitan (similar to tofu, because of its texture that is similar to meat, it is sometimes used as the meat substitute by vegetarians/vegans)

aubergine

mushroom

Red curry paste

And I had it with some steamed gen-mai (short grain brown rice) mixed with 10 different types of seeds and beans that was rather nice too.

Hot Summer outfit

July 1, 2009

I saw Agnes wearing the Onagono’s waffle longjohns at the No-One Boutique. I asked her to pose with a mannequin. Aren’t they looking refreshingly Summery?
