WooHoo - we're bafling again!

I was so delighted to check bafl this morning and discover that there are new postings (thanks Mr Glass) and that Rayloc has returned with her musings!! Ok - so she was a bit wound up about not having purple cauliflower for dinner or something, but at least she is back :) Although - I still can't work out why she was at work at 7am (was that to escape from the possibility of being fed rainbow coloured porridge for breakfast?).

So Jared is obese? Was it a trainee nurse maybe? Did she have the wrong end of the instrument in her hand? Look - I know our Health System is in disarray, but clearly this nurse knows not what she does. This is more confusing to me than Mr Cullen's budget speach. Jared: I am not medically trained (well - I do tamper in the occassional psychiatric assistance department which is "come, let's go for a beer and talk about your issues") but you appear to me to be lean and muscular with no trace of fat. And yes, you do seem to have lovely thighs. So put this behind you and fire the nurse.

Yes Chris, I too went to the Boat Show . Oh man - did you go on board the Genesis and the Sea Rays? Sob. Tom bought a fishing rod and reel for the new soft baits. Maybe one day someone can explain why man needs an array of 10 rods and 10 reels to fish successfully? Give a girl a stick, some line and a hook, and she'll be fine. Or in Rayloc's case a squid jig and a torch :)

I have 4 more dentist appointments coming up. Having not been near a dentist in 15 years, things weren't too bad. I need to have my old fillings removed and replaced with fancy new ones. So I'm looking forward to having my new gnashers all sorted for when we meet up again for lunch. Not that pasta requires much gnashing!!

Tonight I'm making roast chicken and going to stuff orange slices under the skin. I have no idea why but it sounds interesting and I'm enjoying my kitchen - well it's more like a new experimental cooking laboratory than a kitchen at the moment. Fortunately I haven't exploded anything and most of the fires have been put out relatively quickly with no observable damage. Rayloc - I'm accompanying the roast chicken with BROWN gravy, GREEN peas, YELLOW corn, WHITE potatoes and WHITE cauliflower with YELLOW cheese sauce. I'm contemplating adding PURPLE beetroot but not sure at this point........

Love you all and miss you. See you soon :)
