weekend 5/6 april 08

[ramtops]

Never blogged last weekend's doings, and while they're of no interest to anyone else, I'm sure, I like them to be recorded.

So.

Friday night made banananananana muffins in readiness for purple_peril's impending visit on the Saturday. Sadly, an accident befell them. OK, we ate most of them.

So on Saturday morning, while perlmonger cycled over to Bedminster to do some shopping, I cleaned the kitchen, then made a proper old fashioned gingerbread from Nigella's Domestic Goddess book. And it were utterly fab. It transpires that purple_peril is trying to lose weight, so we have had to (wo)manfully dispose of the ginger cake this week. We managed.

The three of us sallied (that's a pun, for those who know her) off to Costco, where she purchased a Roomba (I should be on commission) and an electric shiatsu massage cushion. And had no means of paying for it, as Costco don't take credit cards, and her debit card was expired. So we subbed her, and then paid for our own stuff - nothing exciting: pork, chicken thighs, another shiatsu cushion (for Dave WINOLJ), part-baked baguettes. Very boring, as we are on an economy drive.

Then home to cook pork with sage, cream and shallots, and natter. Sally stayed over, so we fed her crumpets and muffins with jam for breakfast, and then... I can't actually remember what we did Sunday. Spodded, I think. Lazy time - was good.

That's it. Said it was uninteresting :)
