things i did today:
smooshed the loverly skink wots been livin in our barfroom for like aaaaaaages. it went crunch and it was all *ew*. i felt like i was going to throw up for about an hour after.
made a yummy two course dinner!
first course was an impromptu asian style noodle-y soup thing.
having discovered the main was really, well, small, i had to do something to beef up the total meal volume.
it was a shitake mushroom stock, with lots of shitake mushrooms, sliced carrot, carrot, buk choy, vermicilli noodles, lime juice, ginger, ground black pepper and fish sauce.
deeeeeeelish!
main was better than expected.
cubed roo fillet rolled in coriandre and ground black pepper shoved onto a stick, then grilled for about 5 minutes or something like that. anyways, it was cooked to a perfectly delectable medium well, with lots of tender juiciness apparently! *totally proud* served on a bed of pureed eggplant that's flavoured with lemon juice, natural yoghurt, hummous, garlic and salt.
i was informed the meal was of a restaurant quality. *ego trip*
that was pretty much it.
however, despite the fact the meal was superb (i substuted the roo for chicken for myself), it was still kinda hindered by the untimely demise of one of our reptilian house guests. and we hadn't even got around to naming him.
til next....
