Fantastic tapas and wine at Curado Bar, Cardiff, including Cabrales, my favourite blue cheese, and carpaccio de bacalao ahumado.

Been shopping - now fully equipped for Xmas cake making this weekend. Apprehensive because last time I tried this the cake was terrible and ended up in the bin. But that was about 25 years ago…

A variety of baking ingredients and groceries, including flour, sugar, dried fruits, oranges, jam, brandy, and eggs, are arranged on a wooden table.

Listening to Thanks for the Dance, the album of Leonard Cohen’s final songs. 🎡

What is immediately striking about Thanks for the Dance is how organic these meticulously constructed songs sound, given that five of them were assembled from the barest musical sketches and four others from lyrics Leonard had recited, but not put to music. It sounds, above all, like a labour of love, and one that is entirely faithful to Cohen’s abiding spirit.
