Magnolias are so tragically short-lived. No sooner are they fully out than they’re already shedding petals but what a glorious sight when they’re in their prime especially on a day like yesterday.Easy Sunday lunch for 2 based on @meatpeter’s sublime sugar pit bacon chops with new potatoes, cauli cheese and asparagus. So so good . . . #sugarpitbacon #cauliflowercheese #sundaylunch #giftIdyllic short break @tillinghamwines for friend’s big birthday. Perfect weather too. . . . #englishwine #wine #vineyard #tillinghamNever the best idea to head for a bar after a massive supermarket wine tasting but if the bar is your son’s @hawksmoorrestaurants and your companion your successor at your last job (@hannahcrosb) why resist? May account for the fact that my Ultimate Old-fashioned is a tad blurry though Hannah’s champagne cocktail is perfectly in focus, note. Good to catch up with @aleeshahansel too. I even managed to catch my train 🙌 Follow on Instagram
