Giving up dieting for lent

First day of lent, and someone brought a huge and very yummy chocolate cake into the office. *lickslips*. Therefore, I am resolved to give up not-eating and therefore to stuff myself silly. Is this missing the point? *wonders* Last week I excelled myself in cooking vegetarian curry for *5* people and it was divine. I should do more of that. I like being able to cook again! *bounces*
Also - the brick of doom has been conquered. I have finished reading War and Peace. Finally! The epilogue is fascinating, isn't it? *nods* Now off to read something a bit ... er ... shorter. Probably with lesbians in. Or maybe my Norway guidebook (yes, I'm considering a trip to Norway as it appeals to my sense of strangeness!) Or something.
Postman has been bringing happy goodness this week. Firstly, a shipment from Japan bringing some Moi meme moitie goodness. Then a nice box containing Gin Truffles. And I'm expecting a big box of goodness from Amazon containing Chobits and Haibane Renmei and more goodies imminently. *happysmiles*

Date: 2006-03-09 04:43 pm (UTC)Try looking for RazorBladeKisses songs "The Butterfly" and "Deadly Yours", my favourites. Lots of violin goodness and pretty words. I'll play thme to you sometime if you have difficulty getting them. I'm sure you'll love them. I hope they play in London again sometime soon.
I spend hours getting lost in those bookshops. So much good stuff in there. Plus theres ladders to climb and dusty cellars and lots of creaky floorboards. Someday when I own a castle it'll have a library like that. *dreams*
Kitchen appears to be sorted now - Rose is truly lovely and paid excessivly for new stuff (even though she can't afford it) and we have a shiny new kitchen. I'm getting excited about cooking again, and comign up with good ideas. Just ask Rose about the curry I made the other week. She's been wanting me to cook more like that, so when you visit, maybe I can be pursuaded to do the cooking magic again. Not that I ever follow recipes, so who knows what will happen? *wonders*
Sad about my plants. That's the most upsetting of all. :(
Big hugs and see you soon, sweetie.
