Fanny is somewhat lazy on Sundays

I love being lazy (and random*).
I’m afraid I lied to you. Yesterday, I said that my Saturdays are spent in sweatpants and ugg boots. But what I didn’t tell you is that Sundays are spent this way too.
I did goto the farmer’s market to buy some lovely fresh veggies and fruits, but as soon as I got back to my flat, I put on my hot week-end outfit and did some reading-sleeping-tv-watching. And yes, this is totally a single activity.
Note: Regarding the goodie-give-away, I’ll randomly pick one name tomorrow, so stay tuned.
But well, you can’t really blame me since I’ve made a lot of things last week. On Monday, I shared with you my love for tarts and more specifically for a delicious walnut tart. On Tuesday, you got a recipe for basic white bread. Dan Lepard is my hero. On Wednesday, I told you about what probably is my favourite recipe of the week; Pierre Hermé’s sablés aux olives noires. On Thursday, I recreated a gorgeous apple, vanilla and goat’s cheese crostata from Vogue E+T (still can’t believe that nobody offered to renew my subscription; not sure I love you anymore). On Friday, the only savoury treat of the week made its appearance. Gosh, these artichauts confits au citron et à l’ail were damn sexy (have you seen Graeme’s marinated mushrooms and aubergines yet?) and so very tasty. On Saturday, I emptied my cupboards to make a luscious coconut and pomegranate tapioca pudding. On Sunday, well, I’ll share with you ten of the funky search terms that lead to foodbeam.
1. addicted to peanut butter. Me too. If you ever happen to find a great rehab, call me.
2. girls twist in clingfilm wrap. You. Are. Weird. But I’ve to admit I’d love to wrap myself in clingfilm. Must be so funny – definitely the experience of a lifetime.
3. how many glasses of water needed for 160. Just buy champagne. That’ll be easier. I love vintage Cristal Roederer by the way.
4. how to hit on a French girl. Ask her out to dinner and be honest. Kiss her. At least, this works for me. In case it doesn’t turn out with that girl, you know my email…
5. how to write retro-planning. Not sure you landed on the right page mate. But basically, you list all the individual tasks you have to achieve. Then sort them chronologically. Then assign people to each task. Tada!
6. je t’aime et tu dis “c’est cool”. This is certainly not good for you.
7. peach torte recipe. Yum! If you make a good one, I’m interested.
8. use of champagne in food writing. Oulala. Three words: I should try. Maybe the writing on foodbeam would finally be funny.
9. what do the french eat with une petite cuillère. A petite cuillère is a teaspoon. Unless I haven’t understood it yet, I think that what you eat with a teaspoon is the same, may you be French, British or Australian. Desserts, yogurts, melon are a good start.
10. willy wonka pass me all the cookies. No, me first!

That’s a serious lens Fanny!
All those posts in one week – you NaBloPoMo people deserve to spend Sunday in your sweatpants and Uggs. I’m ashamed to admit I’ve managed one post in the last fortnight…

I say you made enough this week, and you should rest for the weekend. I think if someone would take a pic of you and me on the weekends, we would look the same…hehe
fanny said something sweet:Oh, I never heard of Vogue E+T before, but I’ve seen it online and I’d love to have a copy! And it is originating in Australia??

Sophie – I’m so excited about that new lens.
Regarding the posting frequency, I must say, that I’m usually a slow poster.
Sanja – haha, you should have seen me during my, ahem, 3-hour nap.
Tea – I think we should spend one week end together. That would be awesome!

Sweats are the offical uniform of the weekend. And even better than that are PJs. Harder to get away with those though. xo

Firstly:
“* Playing with my new and awesome 100mm f/2.8 USM macro lens.”
What the hell!? Wish I had £400+. I am making non-virtual envious faces.
Secondly, Re: Number 3 on that list – You answered your own question. 160.

Wrap yourself in clingfilm? A friend of mine loves to tell how she was going to a swank Christmas party with her husband in a gorgeous strapless gown. But she was nursing at the time and worried about leakage. So she did, indeed, wrap herself in clingwrap. Not sure how germaine that story is, but it sure is a funny picture to think about.
