Today i woke up with a headache…. ewww and it was cold so that makes everything worse. I think i woke up sometime in the early morning say 7am and decided to turn on my electric blanket because when i woke again at 9am, i was nice and toasty!
Currently wrapped in a blanket with 3 pairs of pajamas on and a dressing gown i think i may safely assume i am a wimp. I never have and most probably never will enjoy the icy colds of victoria and its days and weeks like this that make me feel nostalgic for the 18 degree winters of Port Macquarie.
I have also realised something else today… if all else fails, owning a restaurant would be cool.. infact being a chef that owns a restaurant would be more awesome. I like to cook. When I cook, things tend to turn out right. When I cook without recipes, things turn out alright. I’d even go as far as saying they’re better than when I use a recipe. What can I say, it must be my creative finesse which allows me to create good food without the help of a book.
For example, my broccoli soup today. All the recipes said to use cream and milk which i am not allowed to have this week so i threw them away and solved this problem myself. So what did i have? broccoli, cauliflower, 1 carrot, loads of potatos and vegie stock. Sounds reasonable. The carrot was used as nourishment for cooking and not in the soup itself but everythign else i threw into a pot and boiled until it was mashable. Then out came the potato masher then the blender and voila! we have soup. And it was good.
The point of all that was to say that if this music thing doesnt work out the way i hope it will, I can always just open a restaurant which can host an array of gigs for my muso friends… Who wants to be the first performers?
Detox is going well too… I dont crave sugar or meat or diet coke, but i would LOVE a cheese and chive scone from bakers delight. Its my staple when working in werribee and i missed my fix this week
until tomorrow
