stars midnight cooking with DD sounds lovely, wonderful memoriesand some rather yummy food being built. kitty, my word of the week was asunder, I said about tossing something asunder and was met with a blank stare. but word of the week now is now 'zaftig'

I am tempted to start a thread in baby names 'what do you think of 'zaftig' for DS2?'

hehehe wonder what replies I would get

A message to me in bar - there's a problem in toilet please attend! Emergency first aid midwife stylee prior to ambulance arrival & carting off of said friend with chaperone!! Well!! What a night!!!

midwife you're norty Blush would you keep your uniform on? Hmm
Grin

oh dear though for your friendSad poor thing. Here's some more Wine for you. Grin

cafe zaftig is one of my favourite words; isn't it glorious? It is from the German word for juicy Wink Grin perfect for such a body. I love Yiddish it's so descriptive. Definitely start that thread in baby names and link it here Grin

I felt a bit post viral today but had to make chicken jalfrezi so ate a whole slab of chocolate to get me through.Then ate another in bed tonight Shock

The good wife is great isn't it? Smile

stars I imagine you'll both be collapsed in a satisfied and exhausted post cooking slumber but hopefully you will see this in the morning.IME cafe said, what a lovely experience and memory for your daughte your menu sounds great and I'm off to google your pudding because I've never heard of it.

eventful evening for THE midwife!

Grin at kitty's fantasies. You're a good burlesque pinup catholic girl remember Grin

the good wife, really reminds me of my old job, so I love it, but it makes me a little wistful as its actually so close to what my old firm was like (I am Alicia, of course)

it was green & blacks almond milk chocolate kitty, mmmm..

now scoffing muffins Blush I really must stop my junk munching or it will soon catch up with me. Have decided to be good, as of tmorrow, and detox from sugar for a week.

summerdad me too - really struggled to even get up today, then felt really zombied out- left the house with no bank cards, went across London, had to go all the way back, missed an appointment, and did no work Hmm I also missed my pilates class. I intended to do 2 classes tomorrow as well as see the ex in laws.

BUT I have not cleaned my flat and I am beyond grumpy and morose right now, so I have emailed them saying I'm ill (which I am a bit, kinda run down)

no doubt they will pretend to have not seen the email, and turn up anyway first thing would rather slob about at home, do no exercise classes, and catch up with some work because I am in a lab on monday and totally unprepared

Hello everyone Smile

cafe and dad I'm sorry you two are feeling blue Sad
Here, take your pick Bear Wine Brew Thanks

I agree that cafe's life sounds jam packed- that's London living I suppose! It's that darned enabling, efficient transport system I reckon.

Well my daughter woke just as I laid down to sleep. I've settled her once and after a good faff on mumsnet waiting a while to make sure she had gone off properly she called out to me again as soon as my head hit the pillow. She was pointing at her wardrobe and saying "durr durr". I'm sure she sees things that I can't see Shock. Let's not go down that route while I sit in the dark Shock

Glad your entertaining is going well stars. I've been looking up recipes for your pud. Slurp Wink

So far tonight I haven't eaten any crap or sweet things. However, if I'm not allowed to sleep soon I might have to succumbBlush
