To be a bit annoyed that DH says I'm like the wife in Butterflies?

Remember the sit com? Basically, I'm trying to simplify mealtimes, so I only have to cook one evenIng meal. Children love tuna pasta bake, DH doesn't. So I looked in the books, and made a pasta thing with spinach and ricotta and stuck it the oven with the tuna bake.

It came out looking disgusting. I ate it, and it tastes okay.

DH came in from work, took one look, said "ugh" and said he was going out for a curry, because I'm just like the wife from butterflies. So tempted to pour it over his head.

My 'peanut butter cookies' turned into 'Mummy's savoury peanut rocks'. Nuff said.

He was Adam, wasn't he? My first real crush

Poledra · 07/09/2011 20:59

Ooh, sorry, should have refreshed before posting!

LaurieFairyCake · 07/09/2011 21:04

I used to like Adam and Paul Nicholls

May have been the saucy curls on both of them.

OMG...read some stuff on MN over the years but Adam cross dressing on CS?

Heard it all now!

Indaba wanders away, feeling very, very old.

shakey1500 · 07/09/2011 22:04

Oooooh yes! I remember my teenage hormones raging over Adam..sigh..it was the curls and the tight assed jeans

KatieScarlett2833 · 07/09/2011 22:17

Turns out Adam was actually Russell, we've been perving over Rodney ladies.....

shakey1500 · 07/09/2011 22:29

Ah yes....of course

I knew that...honestly Grin

Ewwww Rodders...just...wrong...it's those unfeasibly high waisted trousers.

KatieScarlett2833 · 07/09/2011 22:30

I know, I feel dirty.

Jellykat · 07/09/2011 22:34

"Love is like a butterfly.. na na na na na n n naaaa"

Can't remember the rest.. Sad

But do remember seeing them filming quite regularly in Cheltenham, aaah the one with the curls - Yummy!

KatieScarlett2833 · 07/09/2011 22:37

As soft and gentle as a sigh
The multicoloured moods of love
Are like it's satin wings
Love makes your heart feel strange inside
It flutters like soft wings in flight
Love is like a butterfly
A rare and gentle thing

I think Blush Well that's how I remember it anyway.

GetAwayFromHerYouBitch · 07/09/2011 22:38

My fault Blush

It was Russell
I prefer the name Adam

Soothe · 07/09/2011 22:41

Tee hee

My dp whistles the theme tune at me when i am cooking
He bought me the DVD last christmas
I even have her username on here!!!
You are not alone!

butterflies

I love that series. Present tense. I wish someone would commission something from the writer.

KatieScarlett2833 · 07/09/2011 22:45

Was Carla Lane, she of Bread fame. Loved that too.

ggirl · 07/09/2011 22:46

I have regular 'Ria" dinners..we laugh at them.

Ds once cried when he looked at his dinner .lolol

I blame my mother who's a shite cook as well and her name actually is Rea!

GetAwayFromHerYouBitch · 07/09/2011 22:47

I loved The Liverbirds, too. I'm sure it was actually a bit rubbish, but I loved it as a child
