Lazy Start

No real update this morning, omlettes sleeping in,  kids playing Terraria, spoke to Kath at length on Skype on her birthday.  Ma Ron have me a dishwasher cleaner thing that hopefully help my stinking dishwasher that's on now for the first time so will see.  However I though it prudent to share lunch plans. Well dinner, ribs😈. Gping to inject them with Jack Daniels rub with smoke paprika,  musts and piri piri from cheeky Nandos. Then coast them in bullseye Hickory bbq sauce....mmmmm lets see

Another Flash

These chicken fingers are great

Curried Chicken Fingers

Using nobbies (end of bread) T4Z helped create breadcrums in the food processor. She then mixed in some M areas curry powder,  chili powder, salt and pepper. Dip in flour, dip in egg and a final roll in our customised bread crumbs.  Now in the oven,  that finishes of the remaining chicken from the other day and uses up the useless left over bread. T4Z has been a great help this week, I hope we can keep it up

Cat And Mouse

So... the kids made themselves Pop Tarts,  I made some lunch and all was looking good for a final 8am leave of the house. Some minor feeding of the cats a quick chat with Kath on Skype and 8am rolls around.  One last duty,  give Rey her medicine...could I find her...no. I though she may have escaped as the kids left but I was pretty sure she hasn't...then a hear some 'banter' under Haydens bed...I can't get her to come out which she normally would with some tapping and 'cat sounds', so i pull out some Lego boxes to find her point of interest...a mouse.  Hudded around the back leg of the bed it really was a game of cat and mouse,  one would go once way,  the other would run the other,  the post protecting the mouse.  I figured it was only a matter of time before the mouse got worn down by attrition so i couldn't leave it.  Now I'm all for the cats catching the mice but you don't like to leave them if you can save them...and besides there's no telling what Rey would had ve done with the mouse or where she would have left it's rotting carcus. After 20 minutes of pulling out all the stuff and trading Hayden's room i finally got the blighter, look like it has a busted leg,  but all i can do is release it back outside. Let that be a lesson to it

Best Film For Ages!!!

Wow! I Though Captain America: Civil War was great but this new X men blew that out of the water...on a Paar with the first Avengers for me. Taryn said 'I thought I'd be bored' as we walked out of the cinema at 10pm after a long day.  She fell asleep almost instantly upon getting in the car, which i think shows how exciting,  well paced and interesting it is...and i just carried her to bed, Hayden is still chatting to me about stuff in it.... just fantastic.  The fact I saw the first showing a day before official release with my kids makes it even better. This morning started with me wondering who i might invite over for drinks or what i might be able to do to make my birthday special, with no wife around(even though I had a great party on Saturday), but with work buyingme a cake and singing happy birthday,  T4Z clearing out the dish washer and Kath reminding me about those gift cards the evening was awesome and my kids were really supportive of it being 'daddy's decision, coz is h his birthday', if this is what happens every 40 years,  I can't wait until I'm 80...next time though Kath needs to join in

Xmen!!!

Awesome, Xmen ain't out until 27th... got the first showing...result
