Stalks, vines and family dinner.

1. Celery because it makes my mouth go numb and is green and crunchy. Plus it looks cool standing in a white jug.

2. Spotting an olive green ceramic frieze on the wall of a house. It showed a fat cherub face and some vines. On the same walk, I saw a real grapevine droopy from the frost but still covered in grapes.

3. Dinner with PaulV and James and James' mother's house. She does the best roasts and the conversation is both hysterically funny and quite challenging.
