a fine weekend
May 25, 2010










. . . . . .
like any good weekend, this past one included lots of good food shared with good people. the bonus was that we were able to eat outdoors. the highlights were lunch in the back garden at violet with winnie and dinner in a garden in north london on saturday night with some new friends (where we ate perfect asparagus dipped into thick homemade mayonnaise … mmmm).
i also had plenty of chances to pull on a pair of shorts this weekend. i really, really like london when the weather is this nice.

Brian, all the images are wonderful.
Full of life and vivid colors.
The scenery, people, things and food looks great.
Beautiful weekend!
The light, the light! These are gorgeous, Brian. A good weekend indeed.
I’ve been waiting for your weather to turn so we could see pictures like this. Nice clicks, B.
i really really like london when the weather is nice too!
this post feels like summer – great photos
i often wish you would host a photography workshop, or something similar
you’ve got a unique & classy style.
i feel like many people (including myself) would pay top dollar to rub shoulders with such talent
I just keep scrolling back and forth. Those photos are ridiculous, Brian.
Glad it was such a good, summery weekend!
I’m swooning over these! One of my favourite sets of yours to date.
wow, a perfect weekend. i love the colors – green is my color of the week!
must go to violet! love all the photos.
What is better than a dusk dinner in a newly green garden?
I am serving grilled asparagus at a dinner tonight and I love the idea of dressing it up with a little homemade mayo. Thanks for the visual and culinary inspiration.
I didn’t realise that violet had opened a shop. If I hadn’t just made picnic plans for Saturday I would be heading straight there…
eating al fresco with friends – it doesn’t get much better than that, does it? wonderful.
love every single one of these images. so good.
i adore that last photo.
have a lovely day!

I love, love, love all these shots!
All great, but especially that fourth one!
Wow. These are so simple and refreshing. Always looking forward to your posts!
Looks like a lovely weekend. I love dining al fresco!
I’m not sure how I stumbled over here & found your blog on a long train of pick-and-choose links: but I love your photos. :)
a fine weekend indeed! It seems an age since I went to a nice barbecue or garden party like this one
i love your small things: glasses, plates…
I found the fourth photo down on tumblr and just had to track it back to its original source. This looks like such a fun day.. makes me wish for summer!
