He does a good line in I seem to remember Biscuits!Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 10/10/2011 16:25

Don't forget the legendary salmon & cous cous recipe.

Russianpony · 10/10/2011 16:35

Not sure I ever knew about the legendary salmon and cous-cous!! Sounds quite yummy though

Right - nothing on at the cinema unless there is a fab new release that I've not heard about, so I might be saved from the children's film. Lion King has been re-released, but DD would cry like a baby all the way through day (doesn't do disney films, far too emotional for her!!). There is one about a Dolphin being saved, but I think I'd find that a bit too emotional to bear!!!

Argh - being hounded by the dog - he seems to ask for his supper earlier and earlier every day - doesn't he know this is me time to burn the children's tea!Grin

TheSmallPrint · 10/10/2011 16:36

Yeah you big meany Twigs Grin

Parents Evening already? They've only just started though.

TheSmallPrint · 10/10/2011 16:36

Oooh Lion King? I may have to take the SmallBoys to see that.

Biscuitsandtea · 10/10/2011 16:45

See now if he can cut coriander up surely he could go on celeb masterchef?

My my though, doesn't Myleen Klass talk a lot?

Russianpony · 10/10/2011 16:58

And he cuts it up so well, Biscuits - his hands almost caresss......![THUD]Grin

Seriously though, she just can't shut up and what struck me was how strange it was that she obviously didn't fancy himHmm - I mean come on - is she a red-blooded woman?! He just looked bemused while she kept on chatting and chatting and chatting!!

Although to be fair, I had lunch with 3 friends today and 2 of them had no idea who he or Lucas was!!!Shock! Couldn't believe it!!ShockShock

Russianpony · 10/10/2011 17:01

Yay!! I'm Small's new best friend!!Grin

Biscuitsandtea · 10/10/2011 17:02

Now see I couldn't work out if she didn't fancy him or was trying desperately to cover up a little crush. There were a few comments like 'oh, you're just like me, watching in awe' when the chef chappy cut up a pepper.

Also, why couldn't she eat it if it had chillies on it? Is she allergic or something,.

I have to say, if he eats raw chillies this could be an issue for our future together. I'm really not a chilli fan...... I think we'd have to come to some sort of arrangement you know, when we so obviously end up shacked up together

Russianpony · 10/10/2011 17:06

Nope I like a man who can handle his chilli!! along as he doesn't actually handle it literally and not scrub his hands afterwards if you get my drift!!Wink

PassTheTwiglets · 10/10/2011 17:07

You're mean to Small, Twigs

I know, but it's such fun :o

so time-consuming having to boil it for the best part of a day

Slow-cooker! I left mine in there overnight and for the rest of the day and it was great - never having to check if the water is boiling dry etc.

Biscuitsandtea · 10/10/2011 17:10

Well he can come round to yours for chilli-based dished then RP and I'll have fish and chips that night. Then I'll have him back ta very much :)

Russianpony · 10/10/2011 17:32

I keep hearing this term slow cooker!! Is this some new-age fangled device?!Hmm

Although perchance it would solve the academy's tendency to burn dinner???Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 10/10/2011 17:34

Miss S is now in possession of her DSi. I have never known her so quiet! Grin

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 10/10/2011 17:41

::Gasps::

Right, that's it. I am not going to look at the confessions site again. As Spiro says, all boundaries now seem to have been abandoned. The most moving posting, I thought, was from someone speculating that because he is so kind (which is a little contentious in itself, as for all we know - although I sincerely hope not - he spends his weekends stamping on kittens) he might be able to love someone who was not physically perfect. That sounded to me like someone who had experienced or expected rejection and made me very sad.

Operation Fattie No More has not been a big success here either, but I did consciously not buy crisps to go with my lunchtime sandwich. I like the idea of a building sculpted in cake. Perhaps I could commission this in Victoria sponge?

PassTheTwiglets · 10/10/2011 17:59

The first thing Lucas asked for on his way home from Russia was fish and chips, Biscuits!

Spiro, isn't it lovely how quiet they are with a DS? :)

Maud, well done on No Crisps! What's for dinner tonight?

Russianpony · 10/10/2011 18:11

Thanks ladies - I know want fish and chips for supper instead of baked chicken!!Grin

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 10/10/2011 18:20

I'm not sure, Twiggy, as I scarcely know where the kitchen is The Bloke is cooking tonight.

Biscuitsandtea · 10/10/2011 18:33

Ah see - we're a match made in the chippy heaven Wink

I'm sure I'll have some bad habit I can indulge whilst he is off eating raw chillies, and then mouthwashing repeatedly to remove all trace of it!

Biscuitsandtea · 10/10/2011 18:34

See Maud your challenge is to talk less than Myleen Klass in the kitchen

Shouldn't prove too difficult.....

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 10/10/2011 18:37

::Goes to explore the house, in the hope of finding the kitchen::

Biscuitsandtea · 10/10/2011 18:41
Biscuitsandtea · 10/10/2011 18:44

Oh and Maud I should imagine your sponge commission would be perfectly doable - might be better in a madeira sponge though as it's a bit more robust than victoria :)

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 10/10/2011 18:48

As I am officially The Only Person On The Planet Who Has Never Seen Downton Abbey, I couldn't say. But obviously, I am tremendously grand and aristocratic and live in a palatial abode.

Russianpony · 10/10/2011 18:52

Tis funny you should say that biscuits - for a while I thought Maud might be the Queen having some down time with us mere mortals through the power of MN. Can't imagine her being able to admit to Philip that she had a crush on ouR mAn!!

Hope you take that in the flattering way it was intended Maud?!Grin. Or have I inadvertently blown your cover!Wink
