On Monday I had Ecuadorian lunch at El Rincon Quiteno in Holloway, then went shopping for Burmese groceries at Mum's House in Wood Green. After that, I trundled across to Walthamstow to have a half of locally-brewed beer in the Olde Rose and Crown before grabbing a quick bite to eat at Priya (RGL review to come) and then getting a bus down to choir in Leyton.

On Tuesday I cleared a backlog of admin stuff and had another (failed) bash at making almond burfi.

On Wednesday I went to the Ledbury in Notting Hill for [personal profile] ewan's birthday meal. The food was good, but the service was completely lacking in rhythm and terribly slow. [personal profile] superpitching and I left before dessert because it was getting on for midnight (and we'd sat down just after 8pm).

On Thursday I was in pain.

On Friday I tried to sort out some of my photos from the Ledbury, but there appears to be something weird going on with colour profiles in one or all of: Snow Leopard, the GIMP, Firefox, Preview, and Safari. (Yes, I know the default gamma has changed — I always used to set my gamma to 2.2 anyway, so I doubt it's that.)

On Saturday and Sunday I slept. A lot.

Ah, tasty! I recently discovered a vegan 'fish' sauce recipe, designed to substitute for just such occasions. I haven't tried making it and so cant give any kind of review, but I could try and find you the link if you're interested?

Yes please! I'm guessing there's probably seaweed involved, mmm seaweed.
