I’m cheating a little bit, this looks like I went for a walk today. I didn’t. Instead we had a really pleasant day in. Breakfast was cereals and a Banana. The cereals are on trial from Aldis and not my normal fayre. But it turns out these are quite acceptable.
We had a lunch to prepare, so we planned out our menu for the week, plus what extras we would need for today. Elayne was doing a Lasagne, with salad – quite a while since we last had that. I went to the shop and got everything. The run up to Christmas has started (well, it started a while ago) I always feel sorry for the shop workers I guess they must learn to filter what can be some really annoying canned music that is passed off as “Christmassy”. I arrive just a couple of mminutes after the store opened, so it wasn’t that busy, but by the time I left (with everything I needed) there was steady stream coming in.
I’m going to say that Lasagne is a fairly simple meal – of course, that does it a massive injustice, but Elayne had everything in hand so the only way I could help was by getting the table ready.
Alex, Sian and Aurora turned up midday-ish, A was in really good voice and is a very fast crawler. She’s not walking properly yet, but we were delighted to see her take a few tentative steps unsupported. Won’t be long now.
We sat down to a seriously delicious lunch, which we all enjoyed, and there is even enough left for Elayne and I to have for dinner tomorrow.
I was on a good radio net this evening. It’s a regular, and regulars call in, but it lasted an hour and a half, so I got in three good overs (there were 14 of us on the net). And I’m closing off by writing this.
