Pixel: Holy crap, there’s a cat out there! Billy Lee: Holy crap, there’s a cat in there! See the boxes in the foreground? That’s naughty TFP’s filing and other stuff, still unpacked months after moving into the new house. Pixel: I want to go outside but Billy Lee’s in the way. Pixel: Time to think […]

Dinner – Nando’s chicken with salad

Jac grabbed us takeaway dinner from Nando’s. For me, four chicken thigh pieces in BBQ rib sauce. For herself, a chicken ribs pack. While she was out getting the chicken, I threw a salad together, with mixed greens, carrots, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, corn kernels and sweet gherkin pickles. I set the table, with placemats, salt […]
