whine & dine

&

Pub Fare Night happened today, and it was a motley gathering of sorts. Well, not really motley, but just not the same usual crowd. Seemed to go okay, for which I’m quite thankful, and – most importantly – everyone enjoyed the food. Only thing that wasn’t an accurate representation was apparently my bakewell tart, which was yummy and buttery and sweet and full of its frangipane goodness (almond meal, butter, sugar, eggs, NOT THE POISONOUS FLOWER, happy???), but didn’t have enough jam in it, and erm didn’t have the sickly-sweet icing on top. I contemplated dusting icing sugar, but it was quite sweet enough so I’m glad I didn’t.

Anyway, post-exams (and hopefully post-NUS) life has been treating me well. I haven’t been getting as drunk as a number of my peers, nor have I hopped on any planes (yet – I will be on one on Thursday, though). Life has been a sedentary TV-filled, food-hunting, lazy-afternoon-cuddling, appreciating-my-bunny-at-home-while-I-have-her-here kind of bliss, and I think I’m going to be quite miserable when she has to go back to work.

Also really happy for miss b who got a new job! Although I was looking forward to finally being able to hang out with you after so long, but it’s okay. I’ll just kope your DS Lite hee hee. I can go jio you for lunch anyway although I’m not at Club St anymore, since you know… I’m now aimless. :) Can’t wait for a couple of friends to come home (for good – and for summer break), but I’m slightly torn about this since their coming home means the date of departure for another couple of friends will be creeping up on me.

Anyway. Time to head off to bed. Tomorrow we go hunting for more food near the river.
