Being spoiled is...
- recieving Molly's new book and reading it within three days (I had to go to work in between. Otherwise I'd have devoured it much faster)
- having dinner with friends who reveals they're getting married, and squealing with delight at the thought
- having breakfast in bed at 10.30 am - scrambled eggs, whole grain bread, cream cheese and Bayonne ham
- making bread form scratch on a weekly basis
- not knowing which of the recipes to attack first in your new Ottolenghi Cookbook because you want to do them all - especially the eggplant ones
- spending Saturday night with your best friend, her husband and little girl and big slabs of beef
- buying 2 pounds of vanilla beans and constantly swooning away from their heady scent

Color me jealous!

I love the Ottolenghi cookbook too. So many tempting recipes, and evry one I've tried so far has really worked. One of their cafes is near my house and going there is a feast for all the senses.
Being your father I restrict myself to "No superlatives, but what a delight and pleasure it is to to read your blog."
I only wanted to find an easy bread recipe.

2 pounds, I'm so envious. I recently ordered half a pound of Thaitian vanilla pods from a Medaille D'Or winner of 2008, and.. even if they were expensive, the scent alone in the house was worth the money.
I had to bake some cakes and make some ice creams, before the wife let the heat of my back. Now she is asking if I will order more when our stash of vanilla is gone.
There's nothing like fresh bread overpowering your home with that lovely aroma!!!!!!
Great blog, you have some awesome pictures of yummy food and interesting dishes posted! :)
