Saturday was rainy and miserable, so felt no guilt at all sitting on my computer most of the day, and cleaning the house in between.
Saturday arvo we went and fed Yoda before heading to Mishi's for a games night.
Had some nibblies and then some yummy chicken wings and sausages at Mishi's. After dinner played a game of Trivial Pursuit (in teams so we had half a chance) except everyone else got questions that generally we could answer, yet the three or four times we actually got a go they were stoopidly hard questions that not even Stu knew the answers to. So that was all very depressing, but at least the game was over very quickly. There was then talk of playing Ticket to Ride, but there were seven people which made it too hard, so just had some tea and chatted for a while longer.
Sunday we got up and went over to Potty's cause Jeff and Ruth were in town and visiting. Helped do some hedging, but Potty came along with his electric trimmer after we were done and redid the whole lot, so we needn't have bothered *sigh*. At least we got a nice lunch. Did our shopping and came home.
Sunday evening we headed over to Windy's for eating and drinking and being merry. Lots of yummy roast pork and potato bake. I made a caesar salad and most of that got eaten which was a good thing. Then played some Singstar until got booted off so the kids could do High School Musical. So that was pretty meh. But Windy and I had a couple of games of Monty Python Fluxx before everyone left and we were finally allowed back on Singstar. Had a great time at that until everyone else got too tired. Surprise of the evening was doing exceptionally well at Aqua's Barbie Girl. Who knew I could be so good at a song I've barely heard in twenty years!
Today we decided to have a quiet day at home (with a quick trip to Bunnings thrown in). Did some gardening and a bit of tidying and watched last night's Bones and Castle online. Then cooked our anniversary dinner. $50 worth of ingredients! Would almost have been cheaper to go out! heh. I did Lana's stuffed chicken (the recipe that has won her a trip to Sydney to cook for Margaret Fulton!), which was yummy, but a little over cooked and a little too salty. Also did an asparagus bake (another one of our new favourite recipes) and for dessert did these mini pavlovas which epic rocked!
Still very full, but quite sleepie and thinking about going to bed soon...
The 16th of May is burned in my brain for several big occasions. In 1999 Gavin and Fran got married. In 2004 we flew to America. In 2001 my flat in Sydney settled.
Also in 1999 I went over to Vic's place and had my second ever beer. In honour of the occasion I went and got some of the same beer. Cheers Vic! :)
