Snack

5th May – Snack

SnackTrip to the ‘pool today.  Start of with a Snack, sausage sarnie.  Then on to The Walker Art Gallery.  Bit of nice Paul Nash, bit of Johnny Vegas.  Thoroughly enjoyed it.  They’re advertising a Holly Johnson exhibition down at The Museum of Liverpool Life.

C not happy on the walk, so we hit The White Star for a beer.  Gives C a chance to rest up.  She walks the rest of the way.  Exhibition is interesting but a bit light.

Scran at a Weatherspoons and then home.

April 26 Glimmer 26

Glimmer 26A day of rest with the exception of a bit of shopping, a pint, cleaning the floor of the bathroom and kitchen.  Glimmer 26 is back to food! Home and make koftas – they work, the bhajis this time don’t, too much batter.  Need to follow the recipe rather than winging it!  D’oh!

In the meanwhile C looks at a scam site and falls for it.  It’s easy to do and when Nationwide give her the heads up, they are fabulous when she calls.

Glimmer 19Glimmer 19 and time to try cooking something nice from the Kidney Friendly recipes. Scones made with diet lemonade. Bit dubious until we eat ’em and they’re great.

Tonight we celebrate our anniversary and my birthday at Il Sappore.  Unfortunately I’m not feeling great and end up hurling.  Whole thing is a bit of a fiasco.  I owe C a nice meal.

A Moment of Rest

23rd March A Moment of Rest

A Moment of RestC still crook, had a rough nights sleep, get up manage to trip the fuses with the toaster, make coffee and that at least offers a moment of rest.  Sort out the fuses, and C comes downstairs to tell me off.  Nip to the shop for water for C and job’s a good ‘un.  Slowly sort the roast after a sarnie for lunch.

Roast was appalling.
