A lunchtime outing, with wonderful friends. Scafata, Trippa, coratella. And then stracchetti.

I made some trousers with unusual pockets, and I think they’re good.
I came to this via John Naughton's website (he doesn't say how he got there), and I have no idea who Sam Bleckley is, but in re-thinking the trouser pocket he has done something rather wonderful, maybe even genius.
I'd buy a pair in a flash.
Today’s big bake, 70% Manitoba with 10% each of einkorn, spelt and rye (wholemeal). Very deep flavour with a custard crumb when fresh
pesosExcellent, clear explanation. I rather liked this bit:
One strange feature of American ~popular economic discourse~ is that the rarified troubles of the very rich often get discussed as if they were “normal”, but: they are extremely not normal.
The million-dollars-in-cash-havers can fend for themselves.
Because it is so true.
Time for some of that fine 100% rye sourdough with toasted sunflower seeds and a hint of caraway.
