GOOD NEWS, Michelle. What a great way to start the New Year.
I made double batch of vegetarian chili last night. Two portions now frozen for future. Made a very good start on first jigsaw (Cats of the World) and found it wonderfully relaxing.
Watched/listened to Jools Holland. Rather enjoyed Florence and the Machine. She has a Gracie Slick flava. Paloma Faith was fun and very retro with TV is the Thing This Year. Kasabian was a bit derivative, Boy George was disappointing (very surprising to me because I used to like his stuff).
Rodrigo y Gabriella were utterly .... wonderful falls short... words fail CLICK
Dizzy Rascal don't get a mention. Sorry mate, not my cup of poison.
Then we watched the fireworks set off from London Eye on TV and were so happy we were not with the people who had been waiting for 8 hours jealously guarding their front row spots, standing in cold and showers. But now I wish I was young and fit enough to do that, if only once.
Woke about 4 times last night. Treated to full moon shining down on frosting of snow at about 3:50am. That has to be a good omen for 2010.
TODAY - Brekkers was pancakes with lemon and sugar (I know it is not Shrove Tuesday - I just fancied them). A long leisurely bath with book and cup of hazelnut coffee beckons. More puzzle fun. Dinner will be Portugese eggs, jacket potatoes and roasted red and yellow peppers and red onion.
