A quick note from the road

Dear Poppet,

I have missed you. It has been ages, I know. I miss being in the kitchen. I miss lazily and greedily savoring cookbooks and food blogs. I miss baking on Sunday. Most of all I have missed regaling you with my adventures on the road.

I have loved every minute of this journey that started in the highlands of Scotland, to the busy streets of London, to the curries from Malaysia and soon the familiar desert tunes from Dubai.

The people, the cultures and most importantly darling, the food has made me weak in the knees. I have tired to catalogue every sight, smell and sound in my memory.

My little suitcase is plump with new shoes, bottles of aged whisky, a tea-set, flowy dresses for tiki nights, a Scottish book of cakes, preserved and spiced strawberries and guavas, aromatic beverage mixes from the orient and a new shade of lipstick. I may end up sitting on the luggage to zip it down but such is the price for wanderlust.

I have a hundred pictures and a thousand words to share with you.

Much love,
Your Singleton.
