I hopped on line today and ordered my copy of Ree Drummond's 'The Pioneer Woman Cooks' - it comes out at the end of this month in the USA so my copy may take a while to arrive.*
Now, some may think I am wasting my money, but I also ordered the 4 seasons of Alf - remember back in the 80's when Alf came into our living rooms? Gordon Shumway from Melmac - he was a Phlegm car salesman with a penchant for all things feline (as long as they were served on a plate, with fur on the side!). I've never seen this available in Australia so I just had to order it. It was a firm favourite way back then.*
A lazy day spent here today, tidying, laundering, making bread rolls and salads for dinner tonight. Beer can chicken is on the menu. Angus' mum (Nana Mac) is joining us for dinner and has bought out her famous never fail chocolate sponge cream cake for dessert. I've got strawberries marinating in sugar and brandy to go with it.

Hope you had a nice weekend too,

Dinner sounds delicious - I've never made beer can chicken, but I've always heard that it's moist and tender...Mmmmm!

OK you got me hooked when Kenny started singing! I am so not a cook and I am so jelous of anyone who can cook and LOVES doing it! I try and try and try, but some have it and others DON'T. I am the DON'T one hehehe. I have some pretty funny horror stories about cooking and Huhoney eating just about everything I try...well almost everything LOL.
