New Eden

Since I have not at all spent late evenings watching David Zaritsky and The Bond Experience, it is, of course, strange that I have suddenly come into possession of a Riviera Polo from Sunspel.

After a lengthy conversation on the universality of weather exceptionalism earlier today, I should perhaps not say anything – but yes, it was awful to bike home in the freezing rain and sleet, so I thought I deserved some culinary dreaming. As such, dressed in the same cotton mesh jersey that Daniel Craig wears in Casino Royale, I set about mixing basil, pine nuts, honey, habanero, and olive oil, which turned into a perfect escapist dinner.

How about the Vitalba wine from Emilia-Romagna? I do not know since it was just props but I hope to get back with a review in a week or so.
