[number seven] & [number sixteen]

go out dancing & cook a vegetarian meal for my friends

Number sixteen preceded number seven. A yummy vegetarian ratatouille, packed full of aubergine, tomato, red onion, button mushrooms and juicy peppers accompanied with crusty french bread...

Perfect preparation for a night out dancing with the girls. Great fun minus the strange rappers that appeared...

[number four]

Go to the modern art gallery.
A friend and I headed off on a sunny but chilly Saturday afternoon to the Dean Gallery of Modern Art. Those days are my favourite days in Edinburgh - bright blue skies but freezing cold ears!
The walk to the gallery was lovely... Down to the West End and by the Waters of Leith, through the Dean Village :) A magical place.
Saw the BP Portrait Gallery awards, there were some stunning and awe inspiring pieces there. I was amazed at the talent. As usual, the winner wasn't my favourite. But it was an interesting and enjoyable afternoon all the same. Finished off with the biggest mug of Starbucks coffee, I was on edge for hours...!
