Well yesterday I did my one report and then cooked a nice Sunday dinner for us and our friend Kim, who despite being told that she didn't have to bring anything brought with her;
home made lemon drizzle cake (very nice)
a couple bottles of wine (they will be drunk)
some flowers
lots of easter eggs (they have all been stated now)
and finally her annual easter competition, which was about 30 questions, most of which I wrote funny answers to and so lost. Some how my wife won, but took about half an hour to complete.
Anyway dinner was a nice retro prawn cocktail followed by a full Sunday roast, with a choice of beef or chicken (and chicken-less-chicken vegi option for Kelly), followed by individual cheese cakes. I cheated and bought the cheese cakes.
It was nice to have a proper Sunday roast again as for the last few weeks I have had to drive to work after dinner so had to have something quick and no wine.
I am not keen on religion (at all) but at least a few of them understand the fact that Sunday is a day where bread (which should be with dipping oil & balsamic) and a nice bottle of wine (white and dry, none of this cheap red stuff) is how people should celebrate a lazy family day.
So Monday now, will do one report then might go out and buy a freeview box with a recordable hard drive for the bedroom. The sky+ is full again only a month after I had to wipe the lot. It seems a metaphor for our house, its full of crap that nobody actually wants but we are not allowed to get rid of.

Sunday sounded like a perfect day to me……,good, simple food and wine shared with your family. ( I love Prawn Cocktail as well – haven’t had that for ages. ). Lovely Jubbly.
ReplyDeleteI am very interested in the quiz, you know what I’m like – any chance of you e-mailing me a copy please ? Don’t worry , I won’t hold my breath.
And finally…..tomorrow will be Day 100 of your blog – “My diary of changing things in my life, my size, fitness, the state of my house and life”. Will there be an update ? What has changed ?( apart from writing on here every day ).
I shall keep one minute free and will look forward to reading about it tomorrow. ( lol )
Your loving auntie. ( and her hubby )
