I made a rather poor decision last night - not quite as poor as some of my clothing choices (Carole simply shakes her head at the things I put on) but nonetheless not good. The Liverpool-Arsenal game was live on TV last night, but for some reason I instead chose to pick up the horror movie "Quarantine" from the video shop. Rather predictably, the football brought about 8 goals, comedy defending and many moments of brilliance, while the movie was so disappointing the main heroine eventually elicited the following response from Carole:- "I wish she'd just die, she's really irritating me!"
However, evening things up nicely was one of my (rare) culinary concoctions. I cooked a Goan Vegetarian Curry for us both, with Carole proclaiming it was the best thing I'd ever made! I have to admit that despite it not being my kind of thing - one, it's Indian food, two, it was low fat! - I thought it was great too, really flavoursome. Obviously a complete fluke, and worryingly Caroles asked me to make it again on Friday. Lightning never strikes twice in the same place....
Today while I work - all the time ignoring the glorious sunshine beaming through my window and ignoring the urge to pull a sickie and go down the park with Sima instead - Carole has her usual day off and is using it to take Luca to his first ever dentist appointment. I hope the dentist knows what he's letting himself in for. His name isn't "Dr No" for nothing..... Carole has half promised to take photo's during the appointment, but I think her time may be better spent ensuring Luca doesn't take one of the dentists fingers off. He's passed his biting stage thankfully, but with disturbing timing chose Monday to chomp down on my shoulder, albeit for the first time in quite some time.
Finally, fantastic photo's on Kellys blog, particularly the one of the trampoline and the one of Luca (already Caroles favourite). For Liz/Mike/Jane/Vals benefit see http://kellyandcraigcornwall.blogspot.com/
