Notes from the Weekend & this Week’s Links 29.05.23
@saraloura

I AM WRITING to you from my brand new desk, which is actually an enormous solid oak dining table that arrived from Paris this morning. It is enormously heavy and makes a dramatic statement in the dining-area-turned-office and I’ve been googling how to make the back of a computer look nice (or at least tidy), as that’s what you see when you first enter the room, when your dining table is now your office. (Don’t worry⏤it’s still fancy.) This weekend, we were in town again, stopping in at a café in Parsons Green for oat milk flat whites and a piece of walnut carrot cake. (The coffee was only okay, but the cake was good.) We also stopped by our new favourite pub again in West Brompton for a quick drink in the late-May sun and picked up take-away noodles on Cranbourn at what has become our new favourite noodle bar. We took the food down to the water for an impromptu picnic and it was rather romantic. Also forgot to mention that before that, we stopped by the wine shop on Davies Street in Mayfair to pick up a bottle of natural wine (a Pinot from Australia) that was light and fruity and perfect for a hot day. It’s the Spring Bank Holiday this weekend, so today wasn’t back to business as usual⏤just yet⏤just more organising and trying to get things set up so we can get back to our regular routines. It’s an amazingly exciting time and we can’t wait to wake up each morning.

This week’s links include a minimalist mountain hideaway in Andorra, and a belted tweed dress for the office; eleven places to stay in Tokyo; linen for summer days, and much, much more.
