Love bone marrow and tripe - the dishes look great .
i still cook tripe with white sauce annhig . Trippa Romano is a great dish . Ginger tripe in a dimsum is
worth trying .

We did get tickets to Dior and I have a story to tell, and it is a doozy, but I don't have time to write about it now. My husband and I are both swamped with work.

I hope you know who JoJo Siwa is because she is involved.

This restaurant, and the bone marrow dish, are featured on the cover of the current issue of Food and Wine, in the mail this week.

I just googled JoJo too. And watched her entire D.R.E.A.M. video. Now I have an ear worm and visions of pink unicorns.

Looking forward to Thin's reveal.

Meems, I am not allowed to post photos of Keith on Fodor's. He would kill me.

We had an adventure at the Dior Victoria and Albert show. I will write about that in the future, but not now as I am having an absolutely horrid sinus season.

I did almost buy a 2000 quid coat at Liberty. It was a Dries van Noten. Keith told me I was ridiculous and pretentious so I put the coat back. He never lets me have anything fun.

It is so much better to go shopping with Margravine Muffy or Princess Desiree.

The Countess de Billy has invited us to Paris for Christmas, but we really want to fly to Amsterdam for a few days.

Thin,aristocrat 🍒

Dear aristocrat, I met Dries at a now defunct first hip shop,Louis in Boston. He was showing his collection and selling his new book. I could not afford the dress I wanted so I bought his book which he signed after our conversation. He sihned saying I hope I get the president I wanted, Well I didn't. I do have one of his coats on sale at Louis. A big mistake, too dressy.. Back in those days I went to a lot of events because my late husband was a journalist.

Says Mr. Hatch Chile Carrot Cake, Pineapple, Cream Cheese, etc., etc. breath! If you can diet with Tracey in the kitchen you're definitely a better person than I am.
