Head cook and bottle washer

We woke early again this morning, joint shower again trying not to soap the wound, then stockings on, My Beloved's not mine, and we are ready to face to world, well as long as the world comes to us that is.


We had an hour or so in the sun before the sweat created by the overly hot sun drove us indoors for a rest, then it was chore time.


I stood at the hob for hob seemed like an eternity doing my housewifely chores, Liver pate check, chilli check, the chicken korai gets done later, I took myself off to the supermarket once I had put my kitchen back in order, I really must do better at being a tidy cook.


My Beloved exercised whilst I was away, and then it was lunch time, being full of the cold it was lunch for a sick boy only, then My Beloved called the Little Princes, Eldest Prince first was full of the joys and is really looking forward to our holiday in the UK come July, Youngest Prince now has a new ipad as baby brother took a mental and smashed the screen, she is also grounded as she missed her school bus, but it hasn't put her up nor down.


We had a snooze in the late afternoon as this getting up early and exercising is taking it out of My Beloved, and I'm never one to complain when an extra few hours of sleep time are offered.


When we woke it was time to prepare the supper, our favourite chicken Korai was organised, hope we don't have to get to up close and personal with anyone tomorrow, that garlic bulb is gonna leave a few passed out people if we do. The pitta bread I put under the grill had to be discarded, note to self don't forget your pitta!!! once I could pick it up I doused it with water and put another one in the micro I thought it would be safer.


We had a lovely supper, followed by a couple of delicious treats from Gals bakery, a death by chocolate thing for My Beloved, and a nut filled pastry for myself. 


Then it was an evening trying to listen to the film on the TV, for some reason and we can't decide why, we have terrible trouble hearing our TV in the living room, it could be that the room is so large the sound just disappears, or it could be that age is against us, I prefer the first option, I did try attaching the surround sound to the TV but the leads we have don't work with the TV, so that idea was shelved, it could be that the whole house is tiled and marble which makes everything echo, I know this because we have to shout at each other to have a conversation, all I know is I can't lip read so watching the TV can be a touch tiresome at times, and lets not get started about the few channels we can watch pffft, I record what ever I can, usually films, next time you guys out in Sky land complain there is nothing to watch, spare a thought for us and our 10 channels of repeats...
