Friday and a tsunami of disappointments wash over me.
Half way through this week I almost felt like I'd done a lot and today I feel it's not enough.
Is it ever enough?
Alone in the lounge with a cat as company and tea in contemplation.
This is an oversimplification of life and perhaps I wanted it to be so unembellished or maybe I just say that to keep myself engaged in the vanilla of it all.

As a creature of habit I'd probably not like too many deviations or unstructured discord or breaking away of schedules just as I resent the hurt in my toe that keeps me from working out today as well and it bothers me to not be able to do something I take for granted.
But doesn't that mean more time, more time to contemplate failures and exhale deep and ponder over things that could've been done but weren't because somewhere I felt the need to take things more leisurely or maybe got deviated from the usual?
Questions in the morning that go unanswered.
Ah well Friday..let's see you out.

Is there any place lonelier than a heartache?

Chillies

In better light!
Right so I'm onto the third and final chilly drawing and well hopefully final for who knows I might want another option but seriously no.
Gotta get on with things.

Bean up

Like black garnets they glint at me, shiny and dark with the deep aroma of midnight comforts and surreal tang.

Oh yes mmm lunch darling

My only regret being I didn't have rice to soak up the delicious liquids this bake rendered and I had to sop them up with toast and that was fabulous too but I can't help think how beautifully this would go over rice.

Experimental awards

This simple bake turned out to be so much more than I'd expected. Oh the alchemy of all the herbs and spices with a bit of balsamic and lemon juice made this simple tray of Hockney and vegetables into something I couldn't have expected would turn out so right!
I'm noting down the recipe for the blog and oh happy days!

Bat an eye

I might not be the superhero you want but I am the superhero you'll get!
