bimbo days

my sundays are so unproductive. and i have all kinds of excuses i use to justify this, but the truth is i just enjoy it.
i met caitlin at Stockman's at 11 and we had a coffee to give us the strength for some shopping. we looked at towels and bed linens and all sorts of other exciting items before heading for our usual sunday brunch. this time we went for Chinese, which was a bit of an odd choice for shortly after noon, but the food was really excellent. we had tofu and really spicy baklazhani. it was incredible, but very heavy at such and hour. i dont think they alcohol we ordered with it helped!
afterwards we trotted down novi arbat and stopped (naturally) at sultanna frantsuzova, but with the exercising of some self control, we didnt buy anything. next stop was ohotni riad, but the place was over crowded with scary dyevs and after a brief stop at karen millen, we decided to escape. we went to small talk where we attempted to flush the chinese rocks out of our stomachs by drinking endless pots of tea and gossiping. then some cambridge boys showed up. one of them (jesus college, what more need be said?) was nominated last year by Cosmopolitain magazine as one of moscows most eligible bachelors. the guy was perfectly polite, intelligent and decent, but if that is supposed to be one of the top 100, it is definately time for me to leave town! i dont know what it is about these eton- cambridge guys, but they are truely the antithesis of sexy.
no offense meant of course to my loyal cambridge readers!
