On Friday, February 7th I attended a Members’ Reception and Exhibition Preview at the Montclair Art Museum. There, amidst the obligatory cheese and wine sampling, I witnessed the launch of Federico Uribe: Animalia – genuinely one of the most spectacular, uplifting and just darned right imaginative art exhibitions I’ve ever …
Since 2010, I’ve been writing about London. And since 2009, I’ve been living in London – firstly North of the river in Tufnell Park, then South in Wimbledon, then finally West in Ealing (sorry, East). That’s almost a decade of London living. So it really did feel like the end …
If you’re one of the millions who’ve already been through the joys and sorrows of the “aural literature” that is the S-Town (aka ‘Shit Town’) podcast, you’ll know what I’m talking about. If you’re not, not to worry: there are no spoilers here. There’s been much discourse already over the …
While 2016 will be remembered as the ‘bastarding, legend-snatching death year’ for many, it was altogether a different kind of year for me. This was the year I married my best one and became a ‘Mrs’. I won’t try to pretend that it hasn’t been jolly bad luck that all …
A couple of years ago, I thought I’d do my bit to support the local arts by popping along to the Ealing Music and Film Valentine Festival, where I enjoyed a glorious classical concert performed by the Ealing Symphony Orchestra. Now back for its fourth year and clearly burgeoning in …
It’s that time again: when I struggle to remember everything that’s happened through a post-Christmas haze of carbohydrates and vodka and whittle it all down to this niftily-structured end-of-year meme. I struggle to believe it’s been a year since my last one, particularly due to the worrying lack of posts …
Working for a Japanese technology company renowned for its staggering array of ‘world-firsts’, I’m pretty used to neat, innovative kits from my overseas colleagues. It’s not with surprise then that I can say that the mighty Japanese inventors have done it again, but this time in the world of textiles for …
I really never win anything. So winning a pair of tickets to a Saturday evening orchestral concert – the pinnacle of the Ealing Music and Film Valentine Festival – was quite the treat. Now in its second year, the Festival celebrates the best that Ealing has to offer, backed by …
Well here we are again, inevitably. It’s a New Year, and time for a fresh look ‘n’ feel update to The Edible Editor. Scarily, this is my fourth year with this blog, and while it hasn’t always been as frequently updated as I’d have liked (who am I kidding), it …
Jealous of the endless parties and events that the Made in Chelsea set seem to solely exist to decorate? Me too. Luckily, I have a few ‘industry’ friends who hook me up with freebies from time to time: club memberships, free fashion shows, miniature-sized food (somehow tastes better), goodie bags …
