The past week was terrible work-wise. Terrible because things kept piling on and I just couldn't finish anything. Too many pies and my finger in everything. Because of the diet, I couldn't even lick the bloody finger!
On to less depressing things. There was a highlight this week. About 2-3 months back, I had met this editor of Women's Weekly magazine in an event. We exchanged cards and I briefly remember telling her I write about food. Couple of weeks back, she dropped me an email asking if I'd like to review a new restaurant in town.
Well, D-uh!!
So TH and I went yesterday to this pretty fancy place and had a lovely dinner on the house. TH made a real scene of tasting the tomato soup with the back of his tongue and gave a faraway serious look after taking the first bite of his spaghetti. I was almost tempted to handover the review-writing responsibility to him!
So yeah, the 'piece' will come in Women's Weekly some time in the future. I was warned it will be a small one and whatever I write will be edited, but hey, not complaining. We all have to start somewhere, however small, eh?
