1-timing- chris comes home from work friday night and lets me know that he invited some colleagues over for dinner sunday night and that one of them is from South Africa- so please make something "meaty" instead of my usual chicken dishes. What exactly is meaty- and I would like a little more than 36 hours notice - not even mentioning that sunday is the best night of tv in England- Lost (yes the new season) and the Hills.
2- Michelle Obama- pretty lady but HATED the yellow dress and coat ( I know some of you love it). Let's see if your husband looks like a marathon runner and you are not as "runner body like" nix the heavy brocade fabric in pale pastels- (stick to solid dark colors and yes I know it was cold so they added extra layers to her dress but she could have had NASA design a fabric to withstand the elements)
3-Sambuca- yes another sambuca shot was consumed at a birthday dinner in Notting Hill on Sat night (no Hugh Grant was not seen). It seems 2009 is the year of the shots for Marina. ( we were home at a respectful 11 pm and yes I drove CJ to swim class on time in the morning)
4- Hip Nana's- my mom is sending me YouTUBE videos and no they are not of beyonce remakes (love that song Put a Ring on It- definitely the new single gals anthem) -it was the Cornell Glee Club take of "Ave Maria" but hats of to Nana with the utube.
5-new teachers- CJ is loving his new teacher (old one is on maternity leave) and more importantly the new teacher loves our CJ. "Mom- Miss W says I have a fantastic brain and a great imagination."
6-pocket money- British version of allowance. I'll be honest after the elf on the shelf flew back to the Northpole and won't reappear until next holiday season- chris and I needed some motivators for the kids- so coins are given on sunday for certain tasks be done during the week and it seems to be working
