Went to a function for the football club last night. We had a tremendous storm late afternoon. Ro and I were out in the garage and got stuck there the rain was so heavy it just poured over the guttering. The storm was directly overhead as a couple of times the lightning and thunder were simultaneous. So loud.
Then had to drive the other side of the city and into town was ok, but took me a long time to get from the city to Footscray. What would normally be about 15-20 minutes took nearly 45. So I was a bit late.
It was quite nice.
And golden syrup dumplings with ice-cream. The dumplings looked nice too.
The trip home was a lot better.
My sister came over today, because she likes the corned silverside that my butcher prepares. She didn't stay long.
Ro was here for a while, then after tea, Jay and I watched the Green Lantern. Wasn't bad if you like that sort of film. Am going to watch Avatar again this weekend if I can find the time.
Hope your weekend goes well. Hugs and kisses.
11 weeks to go. <3<3

There are these days when everything seems to go wrong and things just doesn't stay at hand. Luckily not every day.
We are now waiting a new snowstorm hitting our place at midnight. Over 20 cm of snow may come during the night. Good we don't have anything planned for tomorrow morning - there will be a lot of showelling to do before our car changes places... No thundering, though, not yet. ;)
Panna cotta looks SO tasty. I would like to try to make one someday. Would need a blow torch, too, to get the sugar caramellized on top. Yummy!
We planned for a movie, too, for this weekend, but changed it due to the weather. There's hard to find any place to park a car in Turku now that there's so much snow everywhere. Will go some other time. Though we still don't know what we would like to see. =D
Weekend has been good, thank you! And if we don't have a power cut, it will also continue that way. ;) Been out a lot with the dogs now that it's not been too cold. Got some photos, too, but 'cos there's some problem with the blog with many photos, I have to make some short postings now and again.
May is coming closer every day! <3
Hugs and kisses!
Things did improve, guess I was trying to do too much too quickly, which didn't help.
I have never tried to make panna cotta, and don't know that I would want to try, I don't have a blow torch either. Guess you didn't get to the movies :D
Still the countdown continues :D
Countdown continues, that's true! And by the way - I think we got the Skype working! =D Now I only need to find my headset (I'm sure it's at our daughter's). I think at the moment I would hear you, but you couldn't hear me. So, will look for a new one next time we go shopping! <3
You might regret buying a new one, I could call you every day :D
Don't go to too much expense I will feel guilty.
