“THROUGH ME TO THE CITY OF PAIN,
THROUGH ME TO ETERNAL AGONY,
THROUGH ME TO THE LOST TRIBES.
JUSTICE MOVED MY MIGHTY MAKER:
THE DIVINE POWER CREATED ME,
ALMIGHTY WISDOM, LOVE SUPREME.
BEFORE I WAS NO CREATION
IF NOT ETERNAL, ETERNAL AS ME.
SHED ALL HOPE, YOU WHO ENTER.”
I am going to buy a gargoyle, get this inscribed on it and hang it over my door. I love Dante.
In other news, I am extraordinarily excited about this:

I am thoroughly devastated that I missed the first issue. I’ll never let you down again Jamie. Anyway. It’s delish. Really nice layout, lovely Photography and sexy Typography. It’s designed in the style of the High-End Fashion magazines I like to spend a fortune on. And of course it’s Jam-Packed with food treats galore. After purchasing this, I was spurred to a 2-hour-long Jamie At Home youtube rampage, which was a delight (even though I’ve seen them all before). I’m never really bothered about buying Food Magazines. They’re just never juicy enough. Olive, for example, is a sniff. Too thin. NOT ENOUGH FOOD.


I visited the Natural History Museum the other day. I’ve been before, obviously, but this time I really visited to soak in the Architecture. On first glance it just looks like a big Cathedral, then you look a little closer and realise that rather than carvings of Angels and other religious visuals, the entire building is adorned with Lions, and Tigers and Eels (oh my). I adore it. I want to live in it. I love you forever Darwin.
The book-shop within also made me want to puke with excitement. We spent most of our time in there. I would have bought out the whole place if I could. Oh, and the Bird display? Erm. I finally got to meet my God, aka Mr. Shoebill. And my immortal Love, Mr. Frogmouth (see my Bird Obsession Post). It was the highlight of my life.


I want these:
