This Sunday was for...

... staying under the covers and flicking through books: Fernando Pessoa's dreamy The Book Of Disquiet...

... Kyoichi Tsuzuki's photos of Japanese residential interiors in Universe For Rent....

Rinko Kawauchi's translucent photos of everyday life...

This Sunday was for eating last night's dessert for breakfast...

For cleaning up...

For sorting through the dry cleaning...

For planning our meals for the week...

This Sunday was for jumping on the Tube...

and walking down a long tunnel...

to pop into the V&A for the New York Fashion Now exhibition, featuring a range of young NYC designers such as Costello Tagliapietra...

John Varvatos...

And Jean Yu...

This Sunday was for wandering through Hyde Park, eating hot dogs and admiring the flower beds...

Then popping into the Serpentine for a look at a magnificent concrete bunker complete with trumpeters, drummers and flautists playing from within, by Jennifer Allora and Guillermo Calzadilla who were exploring the relationship between sound, music and war...

Then to a boring exhibition at The Photographers' Gallery featuring a collection of found photos, largely from automatic photo booths, yawwwnnn...

This Sunday was also for buying provisions, from Green Lanes...


From Arigato...

And from Turnpike Lane fishmongers...

This Sunday was also for buying gifts for little girls from the V&A and Bureau Trading...

Wrapped up in funky paper from The Photographers' Gallery...

And fridge magnets from Bureau Trading on Little Newport Street and art cards (Bernd and Hilda Becher, Gerhard Richter and Wolfgang Tilsman) from the Serpentine Gallery for M and I...

This Sunday ended with a lovely birthday dinner for a little girl at Khoai Cafe in Crouch End where seven of us devoured some rather delicious Vietnamese food and drink.
