Chef's in the kitchen

I feel like I haven't been on the blog for days. It is Friday night and we are both a home watching TV after a busy day, mine at work and Stuart's in the kitchen! We are having a curry dinner party tomorrow evening and it is all homemade, and the curry recipes are British Indian Restaurant (BIR) recipies. As a tempter, just look at the wonderful naan's that he baked today and will put in the freezer until tomorrow hmmmm :)

I felt like I had a day of running around at work I am not sure I achieved everything I wanted to, but I certainly didn't sit back and do nothing. I treated myself by going to Hollywood Nails for a manicure and pedicure. I was trying to be really brave when she uses the grater on my feet. I have now discovered the only way to deal with it is to put on their horrible massaging chair. It runs big plastic knuckles up and down your back, the pain makes me forget her tickling my feet! My nails were done beautifully, but within seconds of getting off the chair I managed to smudge them - grrr!

I met Stuart at Target because I needed a table cloth - my only one is a rather grand one from John Lewis's. It is cream and certainly wont stand up to curry stains. The new one isn't really dark, but quarter the cost if it gets spills on it! If you wonder why I didn't get a disposable one is because they didn't go with our colour scheme :)))

At HEB we got accosted by the wine salesman, who was a Brit. He tried to convince us to buy very expensive Pinot Noir to go with our curry! Stuart took the bottle from him saying thank you very much, and when he wasn't looking, we put it back on the shelf!! It took quite a long time to find anything suitable, and only the taste test will tell if we managed it. Stuart noticed one thing quite odd in the wine selection. Back home you get a lot of Chilean Shiraz, however, we could not find any Shiraz in the Chile section. Maybe the Brits consume it all!!

The house smalls amazingly spicy tonight so just imagine what it is going to be like by tomorrow!
