Carole Lombard’s Spinach Soup

Some might say it is a rotten rainy night in London but I rather like it – especially as I’ve been in all evening rather than scouting for boys at the Circulus gig.  I rather fancied seeing if I could bag myself a bearded boy but the lure of an almost full bag of spinach and some new 78rpms to test out was too great.

Carole’s soup was good.  A really delicate flavour – not bright green and robust like a modern Spinach Soup would be, but a very pale milky wishy washy green.  I liked it though.

Although I felt sort of guilty about not going to my friend’s gig, I was also pleased to have an evening at home getting my play list sorted out for Grace’s wedding on Saturday.  3 days in the country – I can’t wait!
