Last night: Hairdressers, meal at fave chinese and then cooking a Boeuf Bourguignonne for tonight's tasting
Today: cooking and baking (tarte tartin, scones and mash with enough butter to cause a coronary), blogging
Tonight: off to a wine tasting at a friends who has very expensive tastes in wine, so far there's a 2003 Batard Montrachet, 1974 Lafite and 1996 Dom Perignon on the menu and god only knows what else he'll drag out of the cellar. I'm not complaining!
Tomorrow: sleeping off the effects of tonight and then taunting an Argentinian friend during tomorrow's match
