Manga buying

louiseluxToday I got RG Veda, a new CLAMP manga. It has manly warriors with girly hair and mystical claptrap. I love it and I'm only four pages in, so I think I must be overcoming my feelings about CLAMP art. I also got Peacemaker Kurogane, a samurai story, because the cover was pretty and showed a swordsman wearing nailpolish (I own my shallowness), the art is interestingly spare and sort of angular and the characters were snarky. I looked for Saiyuki 8, which I thought might have made its way here seeing as it's out already in the US, but no joy yet.
In other news I have a hangover and the dreaded Woman's Time began today. So I'm planning on spending the entire evening with Angel season 4 and I'm also making a recipe from my River Cafe cookbook - taglietelle with fresh asparagus and a sauce made from creme fraiche, an egg yolk and parmesan. The sauce is slighty tricky to make because it needs to be made in a bain marie and with constant stirring but it's absolutely delicious and is like a thin, smooth fondue.
We saw some perfect Crowley shoes in Jones today - black lace-ups in snakeskin (not real) and very sharp looking but M wouldn't buy them, although we did drool for a while.
