SCRAPS...

*My darling love The Rivoli Ballroom was used for the Belle de Nuit ed in the current Lula magazine. Suggestions of ghostly dancing figures surround the model in some shots - yep, that's exactly like being at The Rivoli. I'm spooked out just thinking about it.

*I don't go for the strictly edited flickr stream approach. I go for the other, record of everything approach. I think there's value in that, but I've been wanting to spring clean my flickr so badly. With edging up to 1000 photos, wading through it is almost impossible. For now, I've created a set of just 111 photos I like for whatever reason and the rest - well, I don't know. I might start another flickr account at some point and just put 5 photos with some kind of artistic merit in it.

Oh, I love the Rivoli so! It's one of my most missed places in London... Really enjoy reading your blog too, thanks.

But wait... where do I get that cake?

Welcome Home - thanks!

If Jane - it's so handy to have a soundbite for something you don't really want to explain for ages...

BB - Mango, lime and coconut cake from You Don't Bring Me Flowers. I will procure you a slice if you are very very good.

If that slice of cake tastes as good as it looks, I'd love to have the recipe :)

It tastes amazing, but it was at a cafe that has homemade cake so I don't have the recipe. I think it was mango, lime and coconut or something...
