Not cold, but very windy. Meet up with M for coffee. J back from the greengrocer's with a large bag containing about 15 fresh artichokes (€1.70, $2.27, £1.48). So pasta with caramelised onion and sautéed artichoke hearts. In Canada it's usually more than that for one artichoke - and it looks long dead.
