TRAUMATISED

The Madame A Trois vintage china trios has started to sell and one of my favourites has been snapped up. I didn't think I would get so attached! I'm sure our ladies will have nothing but the best homes to go to. But I remember when I was really little getting quite alarmed that one of my dolls didn't actually have the capacity to breath and I was terrified it would suffocate. Kind of weird I know but I'm over it now.

Also, tonight I spent watching the CSI episodes directed by Quentin Tarantino where Agent Nick Stokes [aka Poncho to his father] gets trapped underground in a plexi-glass box by an evil kidnapper. I was on the edge of my seat watching it. You'd think by the 6th or 7th time I'd watched it some of the edge would have worn off by now...

Less traumatic but definitely equally as exciting is that Flat White the Aussie/New Zealand café on Berwick Street has grown a sister - called Milk Bar on Bateman Street - which is far closer to Maison Bertaux. Now, I will not have a bad word said about the creamy banana eclairs that come out of the kitchens of Maison Bertaux, but I have to admit that I do prefer a Soy Latte from Milk Bar any day of the week. Hopefully as many days of the week as possible. The first day it opened I was there knocking a couple of lattes back just to make sure the new café was up to scratch. I give it 10/10!!
