fun night

Had a dinner party last night, with some friends from church. Yay!


We had: lasagne, roast potato and pumpkin, beans, and bread (from the breadmaker - with added cheese, parsley, oregano, and "mixed herbs"). All very yummy. I got to use my lovely crockery, and nice placemats and things.

I love getting to do things like that.


The boyfriend, who is lovely, came early and vacuumed my floor, helped make the meat sauce for the lasagne, remembered that we were supposed to put the lasagne in the oven (while I was busy enjoying Buffy episodes), cleaned up the carpet where Elf had vomited all over it, served the lasagne, poured drinks, took away dirty dishes, served ice-cream, put leftovers in my freezer, soaked the lasagne pan... and at the end of the night, gave me chocolates and told me that I'd done a lot and he didn't really feel like he'd helped much. *swoons excessively*

clever cat

In the last month, my cat has figured out how to open both the wardrobe in the sitting room (sliding mirror) and the wardrobe in my room (standard hinged door). He can now open every single door in the house except the laundry door, and the actual front and back doors. And those probably aren't too far behind...

We are all doomed.
