Sat 18th Nov – Beach Baby

Just a normal weekend, just two days to rest and recuperate. Just a normal office worker here, starting a blog.

Activities:

• Haircut from Asian hairdresser in Bondi Junction. Prices volatile for a ladies cut – inflation can even hit mid-cut, making it difficult for the invisible hand to work – while mens is always a flat $20. An economic curiosity.
• Investigate the beach. Very warm in the sun. Warmth compelled Declan to nap while I read Rhys Nicholson’s completely irrelevant book Dish. The big font was a plus when bathed in the soporific warmth.

Food:

• Cooked first dish from Alison Romain, charred green beans with a tahini yogurt and a vinegary chili dressing. Recipe below.
• Served with Diana Hendry’s Ndjua Capsicums from Simple https://www.telegraph.co.uk/recipes/0/roast-red-peppers-burrata-nduja-recipe/
