Goodies

I spent part of the afternoon listening to an episode of The Verb a splendid literary-themed programme that goes out on the UK's Radio Three, introduced by the equally splendid Barnsley poet Ian McMillan. It can be accessed on the BBC's website here, on their Radio Player. This episode had food as its theme and made the insightful if not inciteful point that there are not enough poems about food.

This put me in mind of last night's sup tulang. If that wasn't a poem I don’t know what is. (See pictures above.)

We've also been munching away at various Teachers' Day goodies, with hot, sweet tea to boot. This means we'll be going out for a run tonight, to ease our guilt and waistlines.
