I can breathe now, but everytime i cough (which is frequently), laugh (more so) or burp (well...) my right shoulder hurts, which puzzles me greatly. I'm all brok-up! Next time there's a meet i'll definitely be there. Yeah, stoopid flu!

No doubt I'll find an excuse to try to improve on this recipe soon though. We missed you at Borough on Saturday. :( Is your back any better now?

I bought it to try out that rose petal flavour - it was pretty good, and i'm not usually one for perfumy type flavours. When can i come round to try the lamb? Hi Ros,

I can't resist a pink garnish. Those petals cost about £1.50 for the bag, so they were pretty cheap considering how long they're likely to last. Lea: Wouldn't life be boring without unusual combinations for food? This is the great thing about living in London. There's ingredients from loads of different cuisines which means lots of opportunity for experimenting with fusion dishes. Trig: Like you (I think), experimentation in cooking and the new discoveries are what makes cooking enjoyable for me. However I don't think we hould knock the blogs that take a more traditional approach. It may not be what we pesonally are interested in but loads of people just aren't adventurous about their food and it makes sense that there should be blogs that write for that audience. As for working together, I would happily collaborate on a recipebook one day ;). Anna, thanks very much for hosting this week. Your round up was great. That pastry sounds very nice. It sounds like it might have been a variant on bastilla. Joanna: Do let us know if you manage to succesfully dry out some rose petals. I don't know if the species makes much difference but the ones in shops always seem to be these damascus petals. Helene: Thanks for stopping by the site. I will look at yours later tonight. I must admit I'm very lucky to live in a city where I can just jump on a tube and go to Iranian, Japanese, Trinidadian, Ethiopian, Sri lankan.... the list goes on.... shops and get these ingredients. It is a shame your Turkish store did not have the petals but hopefully you will have success making your own in the summer. Kalyn: I'll have to do lavender for a future entry then!

It sound great, and the photo looks just delicious. (And we rarely get entries that use flowers, so that's extra fun.) Great entry. It sound great, and the photo looks just delicious.

This is FABULOUS - and I love the idea of lamb with lavender, too ... next time I'm in London, I'll look in an Iranian shop for the rose petals (in the summer, there'll be plenty in my garden!) - I've been wanting to go to an Iranian or Turkish shop ever since I read in a book by Claudia Roden that you can get quinces all year round in a Turkish shop, and they are also terrific with lamb Joanna joannasfood.blogspot.com Hi … thanks for the link ..
