Party

Just a quick one. Hope everyone enjoyed the party.

somebody needed to post

No one has posted on this blog for ages, probably because Andrew is a nerd and enjoys his job too much (despite what he tells everyone) and I too am also a nerd who enjoys my job too much. Anyway I though I should post something but now I am really not sure what to write about. This is why I don't tend to phone people up very much. It is always awkward once you have established that the other person is still alive to work out what to talk about. I normally end up recanting exciting tales of what I have eatten the night before and what I watched on TV, neither of which are very exciting. Maybe I lack imagination but I find it much easier to talk to people when I can see their face. Theoretically web cams should solve this but so far I am not a great fan of webcam conversations (stop thinking that Dave). Better go so that I can enjoy my social time properly by going to the pub instead of whinging into a very pretty interface screen.

My favorite Dessert

I am looking after Andrew at the moment as he is busy writting up his PhD. This mostly entails me making sure he has enough coffee and cooking him dinner. Last night I cooked toad in the hole and rhubarb crumble with home made ice cream (made possible by my Australian reletives gift of an ice cream maker). Any way, this reminded me that rhubarb crumble is my favourite dessert. I don't really know why. Maybe it is the sugary fruityness or maybe it reminds me of my mum. It is pretty weird how different food can inspire different emotions (I can hear a sociology thesis in the making).
