Sakki didn't make any particular request but I had the impression she'd been baking a lot recently as stress relief, so. XD I don't really bake so this is based off my occasional dinner-making forays with Justin (his taste in music and mine intersect in the general vicinity of Buena Vista Social Club): a glass of white wine or sparkling cider, gossiping about mutual friends while chopping leeks and deglazing the pan, &etc.

I wrote about "Postcards from Italy" here, despite which I still imagine I owe the world a lengthy entry about Beirut. The Keane track is a cover of Rufus Wainwright('s ode to dysfunctional button-pushing holiday family get-togethers), the José González is a(n acoustic!) cover of Massive Attack. Rumour has it the impetus behind The Police's reunion was Mrs. Sting**, who was tired of having the hubby underfoot, always smoking up, playing the hurdy-gurdy and singing lounge numbers in French. Hajime Chitose did the ED themes to Ayakashi and Blood+; the other day I learnt from Wikipedia that "Wadatsumi no ki" had been the third best-selling single of the year, after Hikki and Ayu, previous to which I'd assumed I was the only one who loved that song. I'm not sure how the Stevie Wonder track entered my life, probably a figure skating programme or some such.

You will enjoy this if you like: Sade, bossa nova, "Have You Ever Been Mellow?", creme tea and the scent of baking
