Two Times Table.

Kitchen table – ain’t done that for a long time.

Have I ever?

Anyhow…

Me –obviously – my computer – ditto.

An empty mug – tiger on yellow background. It was previously full of hot chocolate, now empty.

A vase – long, slender (see sketch from earlier) with four freshly harvested daffodils. Smells of spring.

A book about the artist Cristo (bought in Cologne years ago) – was showing it to Ben (part of his education I have decided to assure).

A letter - from someone who knows nothing - telling me I should change my phone.

Ha!

Assorted fruit on a wooden plate with cut heart motif – Kiwis, Bananas and a Clementine.

Might be a Tangerine.

Or even a Mandarin.

It’s orange.

A brush – might be a clothes brush (provenance uncertain).

Homeopathic granules, two tubes – Millefolium and Muriaticum acidium. Both almost empty.

The Kitchen Note Book and a copy of Everything Under the Sun (a daily quiz book – probably targeted to someone a lot younger than myself, but still a challenge – I mean, do you know which is the only animal that doesn’t fart?)

Glasses case.

A bowl of salad for later.

An artist’s model. Miniature and wooden. It probably has a technical name.

Which escapes me.

A dirty t-spoon. (so called coffee spoon by my French neighbours).

Some pine cone roses.

A box containing iron supplement.

Kitchen paper.

A blank postcard from Poland.

Some notes about physical exercise.

A printout of recommended places to visit in Marseille with a phone number added by hand in one corner.

Some coasters.

A Levi Strauss label – formerly attached to some jeans.

And a purse in a box with the image of a panther on the outside (of box).

The panther is black.

The box is white.

The table is brown.
