Agatha Christie had all the best titles, I really was addicted to them growing up (explains a lot…) I still am to be honest!
For various reasons I’ve spent today mentally planning my ex’s funeral.
He’s not dead and to the best of my knowledge (sadly) he’s not going to shuffle off this mortal coil anytime soon – but dreaming is free!
Its like planning spending a lottery win, there is something just so pleasing about trying to decide between a discreet Chanel style little black dress or a Schiaparelli pink number with fuck me shoes!
Champagne. It’ll be Krug of course. Nothing but the best for joyous occasions. No Bolly to send off the wally, but then again, maybe Korbel to toast him in hell?
Tough decisions as you can see.
In comparison, food is easy and cheap. As was he in life. If I wanted to memorialise him in food, well, it’d have to be shit.
I believe that we should celebrate his future not his past though so it’ll be devilled eggs, devils food cake, lobster fra diavolo, devils on horseback … you get the idea!!
Of course we need music to send him off with too and honestly, this was where I had the most fun.
