my idea of heaven


... you walk into a room and take a deep breath of gin and tonic. Seriously, if someone could start pumping atomized gin and lime through the air conditioner at my work for me? I'd be less of a bitch. In fact, I'd be downright delightful.

Bompass & Parr are English jelly specialists and creators of culinary events.... and they are currently holding a sold out event in London in which an old store front has been turned into "alcoholic architecture".... seriously, a room full of gin-laden fog.

I know, I know! it's sold out! and it's in London! but don't you just love new ideas? Their past events look intriguing as well, how about "scratch-and-sniff cinema"? which might be so-so if the film was say Chocolat but Peter Greenaway's The Cook, The Theif, His Wife and Her Lover with smells of 'dusty books' and 'rotting meat' .... brilliant.

p.s. If you haven't seen that movie. Rent it immediately.

My Dad got that movie out one night when I was approximately 8 years old, Mum had gone away and I guess he didn't know what else to do with my sister and I, we watched it with popcorn and lollies.

See, there's REASONS I am the way I am.
