カレー 女医 日曜日
2009/10/19 月曜日 12:59:31
神宮前の世界雑貨店「QUICO」のイベントへ。会場は桐島かれんさんのHouse of Lotus。よく晴れたさわやかな日で、洋館の中は満員です。厳選された仕立ての良い雑貨たちの展示即売は大盛況で、くわえて料理研究家ケンタロウお手製のカレーが限定130食でいただけるという贅沢なおまけつき。妻と、教え子の腹ぺこデザイナー2名とで、雑貨&カレーな日曜日。 あまりに混んでいたので、かれんさんのお計らいで別室にてカレーをいただく。 カレーをいただく妻。背後には心配そうな料理人 イベント終了後のケンタロウとマキちゃん、妻の同級生の小児科の女医さんとで中山家で深夜までダラダラと会食。前半はほとんどは、僕とケンタロウの趣味話とキャンプ道具自慢。後半はお医者さんの知られざる苦労と、ケンタロウのはずかしい入院体験談による医療トーク。ジャンルが違う人が集まって、勝手な話が始まると本当に面白い。たのしい日曜日でした。 |
