And so it begins. The first few pots of paint for the transformation of Number One starting on the top floor. Second and third deliveries next week of the bulk. Oh god......I am going all out and totally don't want to regret it. But I know I won't. 'Bravery' is my middle name. Along with 'Sh****ng Hell' and 'You've Gotta Be Joking'. Pray for me.

Mis en place: Today. Chicken, garlic and red pepper stew. Inspired by bourride - a French stew usually made with seafood that has aioli whisked into the sauce to give it a silky texture and garlicky flavour.
