Or there's the orgasm denial hymn -- "How long, dear Savior, oh, how long, shall that bright hour delay?"

I could do this for an embarrassingly long time.

Ooh, interesting.

Nearest: "The really precious parts of my life are transportable, not conditons of geography."

Second nearest: ...is just a large picture of chocolate brownies.

Third nearest: ... is the kitchen diaries.

Soooo. Does that suggest you ought to plan some travelling this year?

I've got to say, though, that the brownies fall in my category titled 'Very Nearly As Good As'. Just sayin'.

As, really, does pretty much all of Nigel Slater.
