out to dinner


this is a pic of me and my new tattoo. it's the one on my left knee. it's a gecko. i got it in bali this year. i'm hoping to get another one on my left shoulder blade next february.
hiya, just returned from a lovely evening out with Maz and her g/friend. i feel great coz we had lots of laughs and i needed a good laugh. Maz's dog is a little shit, it used to nip at me and bark at me. now i must say that animals usually love me. i'm adorable. but not this dog. but, the last two times i've been to her house the dog is fine with me. barks when i get there and doesn't like it when i leave but other than that he's fine. she has him on medication coz he has fits. he's epileptic i think. anyway, we went to the severington lodge or something like that opposite the tea tree gully hotel. it's chinese. lovely food and we had a new champagne called something pink. it was delicious. made by borloti or something like that. it's from SA. i'm not being very helpful am i? there was a minor car accident outside the restaurant just seconds after i turned into the parking lot. i don't think anyone was hurt but the police, ambulance and rescue people arrived about half an hour later. they got the car towed about two hours later. does anyone want to buy a toyota badge? someone told me to put it on ebay. have you ever heard of such a thing? bizarre. then we went back and had greek coffee and Maz read our cups. she's very good at this but tells it like it is. but no mind, mine were all good tonight, except that she saw someone who's passed over that i'm going to dream about or something like that. now that could be anything or anyone. it's freezing out tonight. i've just made a cuppa and there's nothing on the teev except kevin07 making his acceptance speech thingy. i went around to Kim's again today to make some jewellery. she loves it. she fed me again as usual. strawberries. and then sticky rice with coconut and herbal tea with ginger. all delish. btw i went off the rails tonight re: diet. i had black pepper sizzling steak which was really beautifully done. i gained weight this week when i was weighed which is bloody ridiculous as i've been very very good again. i'm sure it's because she weighs me one saturday morning and then the next friday night. or it might be fluid. i'm looking for excuses here. basically except for tonight i've been good. Kim did give me some pineapple with kalua (?) the other night. wow it was great. there's an asian thing she does with fruit, with the strawberries today she puts a salt and chili mixture on them. just a tiny bit. now, i know this sounds weird as but trust me when i tell you this it brings out the flavour like you wouldn't believe. it's got something to do with the sweetness of the fruit i don't quite know. apparently it's very common in Asia to do this. they sell little bottles at asian supermarkets. go figure? oh well, i'd best go to bed and read i think. nothing on tv and too late to start watching a movie. have a good day tomorrow, i hope it's a good one for you. bfn

  4. Hi there! Dinner sounded lovely! I know what you mean about putting on weight and not understanding it! I do yoga at least four times a week and try to keep the food healthy and monitored but if I have even the slightest blow out, the weight goes on quicker than you can chocolate! lol.

    Those strawberries sound delish! Asian cooking has such lovely flavours and interesting cooking combinations dont they?!
