Last night friends, colleagues and family turned out to help me celebrate the publication of The World of Madeleine Castaing. The Haughtons along with Bruce Addison, Maureen Footer and Charlotte Moss generously hosted the launch party which took place in the International Show's Glorious Food Cafe.

| Beth and her team from Potterton Books kept me on track... |

 |
| ...which I needed because it was too much fun talking to everyone... |
|

 |
| ...like the extremely stylish milliner Rod Keenan and connoisseur Philip Hewat-Jaboor |
Pigs in blankets and miniature grilled cheese sandwiches from Glorious Food kept everyone happy as did the absolutely delicious and refreshing special cocktail of the evening, the Cointreau Blush, courtesy of Remy Cointreau.
- Put ice into a tall glass
- Add 30ml Cointreau
- Add 10ml Lime juice
- Top with 60ml Pink grapefruit
- Finish with 70ml Soda
- Stir well
- Add a lime wedge as a garnish
Thank you to everyone who came - it was thrilling meeting other kindred members of the cult of Castaing! And a special thank you to Magda Grigorian and the International Show for a most splendid evening.
